The Weinstein Company's Lifetime miniseries may be coming to an end, but annoyingly, winter is not.

An Upscale Gown

A great winter occasion dress has two things: an appropriate length (check) and undeniable glamour (double check).

An Embellished Knit

Level up your basic office-friendly winter outfit with a bejeweled sweater. It's kind of like they did it back in the 1800s, but way more comfy.
