If you’re headed to cocktail hour, try a pair of trousers in a deep teal or cobalt.

Don’t forget a statement necklace— it is the holidays, after all!
How to Dress up Printed Trousers
If you’re looking for more dimension, a trouser with texture (jacquard, for example) kicks up the fancy factor immediately. Pair them with a sheer blouse in a complementary color—brown & navy will do the trick. Then add a long tassel necklace to keep this look up to date.
