5 Holiday Fashion MistakesIf you've ever dressed up shinier than a Christmas tree or turned down last-minute party invitations because you had nothing to wear, you'll know that the holiday season is loaded with chances for fashion disasters.
With a little help and preparation, you can learn how to avoid common holiday fashion mistakes and look your prettiest this year.
Wearing Too Much Glitz
Beading, metallic and shimmer are all fine for the holidays. In fact, most women wait until a good party to break out all of the glitzy finery. But too much shine can overwhelm anyone, especially if you wear it in areas that you don't necessarily want to highlight (like a beaded chest sweater for a busty gal).
Showing Too Much Skin
Thigh-high miniskirts and cut-to-the-navel dresses may look great on the runway, but in reality they are almost impossible to carry off. Not only is it possible to dress sexy while leaving lots to the imagination, it's also the best way to look your prettiest for the holidays. The secret here is to accentuate your best features with a suggestion: a lace trimmed camisole under a blazer hints at great cleavage, a small slit on a skirt gives a glimpse at gorgeous legs, a halter dress shows off toned arms.
Getting Caught With Nothing to Wear
Nothing is worse than being invited to a fabulous party and having nothing to wear. By keeping a few dressy basics in your closet you can always be prepared for last-minute invitations. You can even re-wear the items and make them look totally different just with accessories.
Making It Too Complicated
No wonder women approach the holidays with dread: trying to coordinate outfits, gifts, travel and parties can overload even the most organized woman.Instead of trying to match up dressy separates, try a little black dress this season. Not only is it universally flattering, it will take you to almost any event in style. Just add accessories and you're set.
Being Under or Over Dressed
You show up in jeans, everyone else wears velvet; you wear a long dress and others wear business clothes. You're not alone if you have trouble deciphering dress codes on a party invitation: most people get confused by designations as ambiguous as "Dressy Casual" or "Cocktail Attire." A few dressy items span several categories -- such as the little black dress for her or dark suit for him -- both of which can attend everything from semi-formal to cocktail parties.

Fred Claus (Vince Vaughn) has lived almost his entire life in his little brother's very large shadow. Fred tried, but he could never live up to the example set by the younger Nicholas (Paul Giamatti), who was just a perfect... well... Saint. True to form, Nicholas grew up to be the model of giving, while Fred became the polar opposite: a repo man who then steals what he repossesses.
Now Fred's dirty dealings have landed him in jail. Over Mrs. Claus's objections, Nicholas agrees to bail his big brother out on one condition: that he come to the North Pole and work off his debt making toys.
The trouble is that Fred isn't exactly elf material and, with Christmas fast approaching, this one bad seed could jeopardize the jolliest holiday of the year. Has Fred finally pushed his little brother to the brink? This time, what Fred may have stolen is Christmas itself, and it is going to take more than Rudolph to set things right.

The most common ones are those with "fake" ties printed on them. 
Bulletproof vest for added protection? LOL
Oh and even one of the DJs was caught in a fake tie tee... *hint hint* the one on the left
In Mourning?? Blame it on her recent breakup—Hayden Panettiere just isn't in the groove tonight. Then again, could anyone have pulled off this voluminous, peach-colored Marc Bouwer gown? Nothing against the sexy neckline, but Hayden could be hiding an entire cheerleading squad beneath this bulky skirt.
Talk about getting dressed in the dark. Kyra Sedgwick tries for high fashion and a touch of mod with a black feathered skirt and ultrastructured bell top by Oscar de la Renta. Sorry, but a lampshade on your torso does not a fashion luminary make, Mrs. Bacon
Someone needs to remind Paris Hilton that she needs to take a vacation from making an appearance on our diss list more than once! Seems like she's going on a vacation alright. A ski trip! But she could do without the fashion disaster, on her trip.
American Idol judge Paula Abdul seems to be re-enacting something familiar. Straight up, now tell us, Paula, did u wear this Janet Jackson wadrobe-malfunction-wannabe dress to revive your singing career? Or to get Justin Timberlake?
