Petite Fashion Challenge #3 is hosted this month by Elaine from Curls and Pearls! Please be sure to visit her blog to see all the entries by fellow petites.
The challenge:
Create a holiday party look using festive colours and/or holiday pieces
without looking like a greeting card. This could be your opportunity to
dust off that reindeer sweater you might have collecting dust in the
back of your closet and turn it into something chic.
Here’s what I came up with:
My mom always told me I should wear red for the holidays. Something about it bringing good luck in Chinese culture. So here we go. Mom, this is for you. ^_^
And this is my second and last faux fur piece that I have in my closet (see the first if you missed it). I’ve been wary of faux fur all my life, but something about this little jacket just sucked me in. I think it adds this air of opulence and elegance to the outfit. And for $29.80, why not experiment a bit? (I love you, Forever 21.)

OMG….you look like you're auditioning for a bioflick of some old time Hong Kong/Chinese movie star! Looove the faux fur.

aki! says
What a great look. I want to pick you up from that balcony? and put you in a old style Holiday party.
You look great in the picture with the jacket half off your shoulders!
Stylepint says
A very classic look. I love the dress and the ruffles down the center. It's fun and flirty. Plus the silver accessories keep it more understated and let the dress speak for itself. Fab! =)
Cee says
Red really suits you, Kileen! This dress is gorgeous and makes your waist look super tiny. I also love the statement necklace. Can't go wrong with pearls and fur 🙂
Em says
That jacket is to die for! I must find one. Lovely outfit.
Jo says
Not only is red lucky, it also looks great on Asians, including you!
Ellen ♥ says

I must confess that this is my favorite look from all of the entries into PFC #4. I love the jacket (totally coveting that) and I NEED those shoes. This looks spectacular, and you totally rock the dress.
kileen says
Thank you all for your super kind words! I really loved this outfit too and agree it does look like a Hollywood glamour theme I should've done my hair in a similar style. I'll have to look up some YouTube tutorials! 🙂

Mindy says
