Metallics are in and while silver and bronze are just as beautiful, it's really about going for the gold this season. Eye-catching without being gaudy, gold is a surprising neutral. Like the popular nude tone trend, gold is a color that matches virtually everything. Bold and edgy when paired with black, incredibly luxe with white, and a head-turning color all on it's own, gold is the way to go this season.
Plus, with the holidays upon us, gold is a festive color that can be as glittering or understated as you please. Gold jewelry is gorgeous, but obvious, so try out this gold trend in garments and other accessories. Look for a sequined dress to really make a statement, or add just a pop with small embellishments.
And while gold itself can get pretty pricey, gold pieces can be affordable and worn before, during and after all the holiday soirees. Afterall, what fun are the holidays if they're gild-free? Click on the slideshow to see some fave gold picks for $100 or less!

Everyone deserves their moment in the spotlight and the best way to be seen is to wear something eye-catching! The holiday season is the perfect time of year to pull out all stops and really dazzle the crowd with some stylish sparkle and shine! The stars are shining brightly, but not as brightly as you will in these glittering garments and accessories. We don't need the stars to tell us that this is the season of friends, family and lots of fun mingling. A quick consultation, however, does help us see exactly which dazzling item will be perfect for our specific sign. Attention loving Leos would fare well in something that really glitters, like a dress or one-piece, to bask in the limelight. The more demure Aquarius is one of the most stylish signs, but may feel more comfortable with a sparkling accessory instead of head-to-toe glitz. The stars have helped us find which glittering fashion item would be just the right amount of shine for us while navigating the holiday party circuit.
