The Reader’s Guide to Holiday Style: Glam New Year’s Eve

For most, opulent events calling for pearls, gowns and elbow-length gloves are few and far between. But that's what makes them so memorable, worthy of putting on a little extra ritz. Model Caitlin Hochwender wears a mix of vintage and second-hand items from Omaha's own Goodwill Reserve, located in the heart of the Old Market district. Faux fur detailing on this vintage gown gives the look a '60s flair, made complete with silky gloves no doubt worn for a formal affair of years past. Vintage accessories and gently worn d'Orsay heels from designer Jessica Simpson complete this classically styled ensemble, which retails in entirety for just under $100 total before tax. Stylist Rebecca Forsyth of Bungalow/8 Hairdressing styled our model's hair into polished curls and finished off the look with a dramatic cat eye, thick, dark lashes and brilliant pink lips.

Clothing and Accessories provided by Goodwill Reserve located at 501 South 13th Street. Visit goodwillomaha.org or call 402.342.4102 for more information.
