The Cheap Girl

I love dressing up for New Years because I like the idea of combining understated sparkle and glamour. Instead of competing with the glittery and fun outfits, I choose the demure route mixed with an element of surprise. It could be something as simple as combining a deliciously rich red lipstick or a colourful clip with the classic little black dress or wearing a sparkly party dress but keeping hair and make up simple and casual.

This year I am obsessed with opera length gloves. I am deciding between a satin red dress or a little black dress. I think that the gloves will suit both but I also want to wear both dresses. Maybe a costume change halfway?

Here are some of my picks for possible New Year’s Eve looks:

Sequin Dress from Dynamite $39.99

Flirty Frilly Dress from Jacob

Tristan Fabrique Au/Made in Canada

Tristan is one of my absolute favourite destination for chic, modern, professional and quality fashion. When the sale happens I am always there scouring the sales rack for fabulous deals.  I LOVE shopping there because the styles, the cuts and the quality are all excellent. Even though my love affair with the brand started a long time ago, I fell even more in love when I found out that some of their pieces are actually produced here in Canada. Personally when it comes to price points, when I find out that an item is locally made I am more inclined to spend a few more dollars towards a purchase. I believe in supporting our local artists/designers and companies who manufacture products at home. Tristan is all about supporting the local community, bringing value and commitment to the Canadian economy. Combine this with quality products, competitive prices and great style, how can you not fall in love? I heart Tristan!
