Party season is about to kick off, and we're here to teach you all the proper ploys if you want to make some noise.
Love a blazer? Make it gold. A not-so-boring take on a black dress — jazz up the texture and add red tights. Strong shoulders, a cape silhouette, a sharp collar, the list goes on... and there's nobody wiser than stylist Monique Moynihan when it comes to putting a spin on a seemingly simple outfit combo. Then, if you want to go all out, scroll directly to the red sequin three-piece.
So let's start 'cause we've got an amazingly strong lineup of looks in the shoot above. Then say hi to Sydney's new resident, Lina, below.
