It's the most wonderful time of the year -- that's what the song says, at least. And while the holiday season can bring with it a whole host of fun, it can also seem just a tad overwhelming, especially if you have 1 million places to be and not a thing to wear.
Fear not -- help is on the way.
Before you hop online and start buying clothing at random in a desperate attempt to craft a holiday look, let Chris Salvatore give you a jump start. To avoid the stress of having to ship back 90 percent of what you'll wind up buying, sit back, relax and make yourself a Warhol White Cosmopolitan using a bottle of Absolut Warhol Limited Edition. Once properly relaxed, let this actor, singer and YouTube sensation create your first sure-fire hit look of the holiday season. Here are his tips to making the room look in your direction:
1. Lambswool cardigan. "Every man needs a good comfy, junky sweater for holiday season. Layering with a grey or cream cardigan always freshens up a day outfit for a night-time holiday party. Try this one from J-Crew."
2. Plaid trousers. "I am a really big fan of plaid dress slacks with a nicely fitted front. The plaid pattern gives the outfit that holiday charm. You can go with the blue/black theme or the red from Brooks Brothers."
3. Holiday socks. "This holiday season, steer clear of the mundane black dress sock and go with something that takes a bit more creativity like these holiday dress socks from Absolute Ties. It's always an easy ice-breaker when a cute guys is wearing cute socks!"
4. Skinny tie and bow ties. "Impress the room with the stylish ties and bow ties from www.TheTieBar.com. Find a matching plaid bow tie that ties together with the plaid trousers."
5. The right blazer. "A black blazer is definitely a must-have this holiday season. Make sure you find one that fits you nicely or get it tailored, guys! You will be sure to turn some heads at the party with this simple blazer from H&M."
