Congratulations on making it to the third “New Year’s Eve 101″ course — how to achieve that sultry sexy look for this week’s parties.

Think lingerie, but with a little more coverage, i.e., your stomach. This look is not for the shy, self-conscious or sloppy (one lift of the arm or bending-over motion may lead to a little TMI for those around you.)

1. Rachel Pally ‘Natalia’ dress, $255

2. Thayer Halter mini dress, $248

3. Herve Leger Alix metallic empire dress, $1,450 (Or, check out the BCBG dress below - you can get the same look for a lot less!

4. BCBG paneled halter dress, on sale for $236.60

 5. D&G stretch satin cami dress, $595

In our next class we will tackle the always-popular sweet style option for New Year’s Eve party wear.
