Glamazon Holiday Giveaway Contest - LOFT

Hey Glamazons!

We've got more holiday gifts from the Glamazons coming your way! This one is from one of my favorite chic, affordable retailers, The Loft.

But before you get inconsolably excited, you should know one thing: This is not your mother's Ann Taylor Loft. The brand, which strictly goes by LOFT now, is reinventing itself with a fresh, modern and decidedly fashion-forward look---without sacrificing an ounce of the affordable quality we've come to expect. For fab holiday finds and inexpensive gift ideas, go to the newly-designed e-commerce site: www.loftonline.com.

And...before you shop, I put together a mini-guide with my five favorite festive pieces from the LOFT collection that are sure to spruce up your holiday wardrobe this season. Added bonus? Each of these can work from the desk to the dinner party and beyond.

The NECKLACE

A bib necklace is an easy, affordable way to make any look party-ready. It adds the perfect touch of glitz and glam to everything from a plain black top to a brightly-colored sheath.

The SKIRT

This adorable skirt will give your office duds an instant dose of glamour. The shimmer and leopard print scream party but the knee-length hem makes it suitable for the office. Pair it with a blouse and cardigan and you have the perfect look to wear to a holiday party with your co-workers.


The JACKET

When the invitation calls for casual dressing, this blazer is the best way to get the look. The ruffled neckline is festive and fashionable, but won't leave you feeling overdressed.

The TOP

Sequins for day is the only way to shine this season! This shimmery, metallic tank has more versatility than you think. Let it peek under a long blazer or cardi for a day at the office and pair it with a sexy, sleek pencil skirt for a night on the town.

The DRESS

If you're a Glamazon reader, you already know how effortless and flattering this black dress is. The length makes it perfect for the office, but the form-fitting silhouette makes it sexy enough to wear after the work day is over. Accessories like a scarf, necklace and headband are all you need to glamourize the look.
