December 31 is a night for parties, dances and meals at fancy restaurants.  All of which require that special outfit.  What you need is one that doesn’t break the bank but makes heads turn.

Wisdom Lane Antiques can dress you from head to toe—and even provide a terrific coat for a finishing touch.

The Opening Night outfits for America’s Olympic athletes are being designed by Ralph Lauren.  His designs are always distinctive, unique and remain fashionable season after season (and year after year, really).  Here at Wisdom Lane Antiques, I have several Ralph Lauren pieces for sale.  I invite you to visit and view items like this jacket:

Lauren jacket
The great thing that this jacket has going for it is that it has a 1980’s tweed look going for it, and it can go with just about anything.  You can see it in my eBay store here.

Another great Ralph Lauren item is this formal dress.

Have a favorite sport or sports team?  Do you love to hang out in a jersey with your favorite jeans?  I have several jerseys right now on eBay that you could do this with and cheer on your favorite team.

The first is this jersey for Terrell Owens when he played football for the Philadelphia Eagles.
