Hold the bells and tinsel. For the holidays, sometimes it's best to keep it simple. Padma Lakshmi knows this, and looks lovely in her belted black number.

We told you simplicity is key. This strapless column dress is perfect for showing off toned arms and glowing skin, as Paulina Porizkova elegantly displays.

As any Classic Sophisticate knows, never say no to nude during the holidays. It's a great alternative to silver and gold, and, as Tyra Banks proves, looks ever so chic.

Take the forest green hue of a Christmas tree, wrap it around the sinuous curves of Amber Valletta, and what do you get? Perfection.

Ever one to display classic style, Dayle Haddon is holiday party ready in this gorgeous red silk dress.

Christie Brinkley knows how to perfectly accessorize her red turtle dress, adding a trendy leather belt and sexy knee-high boots to complete her holiday look.

Stand out at those holiday events by stepping outside the box. Veronica Webb knows that lavender is just as good as red, gold, or green.

And if you're going to try a different color, you might as well try a different style. Liya Kebede makes this belted coat dress a must for any Classic Sophisticate.
