Holiday Statement Ensembles from the Sassenfras' Daily Edits

Online, November 30, 2012 (Newswire.com) - - To create a festive look for the holidays, Sassenfras' "Daily Edits" break down the trends that the fashion industry is buzzing about and is sharing stunning, affordable cocktail dresses (under $200) and outstanding outerwear that is worth the splurge. Sassenfras is a fashion-forward website that brings runway looks to everyday people who love style and want to be in the know.

A fun way to get into the holiday spirit is with a festive cocktail dress. Sassenfras' Cocktail Hour Edit includes sleek sheaths, stunning sequins and full-skirted cocktail dresses. The edit includes a black, white, gold and gunmetal color palette enlivened with sequins, embroidery, organza and tulle. Open-back detailing, embellished waistbands and keyhole openings add a modern flare to each dress. Retailers in the round-up include Michael by Michael Kors, BCBGMAXAZRIA (which sold out), Topshop, H&M and others. Prices for the chic cocktail dresses included in this Sassenfras edit are a steal, starting at $87. "Holiday dresses should always have a hint of glitz and glam for the occasion and with so many budget-friendly options, there's no need to break the bank," says Sassenfras Founder Maz Durbin.

To accent your holiday dress steal, splurge on an item in the Sassenfras Statement Coat Edit. "Great outerwear can last a lifetime and is worth the investment. Choose a coat that expresses your personality and is reminiscent of a classic style so that it can withstand numerous seasons," says Durbin. From J.Crew to Valentino, the overall theme is a sleek silhouette with sophisticated looks that range from military inspired to a nod to '60s ladylike style. Leather trim, buckles, belts, oversized pockets and necklines give each coat a modern edge. Red, pink, bordeaux and royal blue hues provide the punch of color needed to make a statement and get you through the dreary winter months.

The Sassenfrass website features items for both men and women who are already interested in fashion and style and are looking for a variety of options and price points. The site focuses on the design of the clothing, never models, making it a place where anyone can shop and find clothes that match their own individual style.
