The holiday festivities are approaching, and I always love an excuse to get a little dressed up around this time of year! Before the holiday parties start creeping up on your calendar, I wanted to share a few festive dresses perfect for a special occasion to help you avoid some of the holiday stress.
You can never go wrong with tartan! For casual holiday get togethers, I love this long sleeve tartan mini dress. I bought it last year while pregnant with Rory, and it carried me through all the festivities. I was so happy they brought it back again this year and added a red plaid colorway. I love mixing silver accessories with tartan, so I would pair this dress with silver mary janes and sparkly earrings.
This green velvet blazer dress is the perfect elegant option for holiday work events! I also like this metallic velvet long sleeve dress and burgundy tweed dress. Another tried-and-true dress perfect for the holidays is this belted midi dress! I have it in three colors already, and I am debating adding this punchy red to my closet as well. I love that it feels just festive enough but is still a piece you can wear outside of the holiday season window, making it even more functional.
On the other hand, I am also swooning over this tulle bow mini dress! It’s such a fun statement and perfect for a party! For a similar look that’s slightly less dressy, I also love this tie back bow tartan dress with 3-quarter length sleeves and a ruffle neckline.
