What to Wear to Your Holiday Party.

We all have various holiday parties to attend. Whether they are at home (yours or other), offices, or even the fanciest restaurant in town. We need to kick it up a bit and look really special. Seriously, the holidays only come once a year and it is time to shimmer, and shine your way into the room.
My favorite place to shop, online and in-store is Nordstrom. They have the best dress department, in my opinion. And online, they even divide it up into easy to scroll through categories such as shop by even, body type, casual, etc.
Here are a few picks of mine that I am going over back and forth. My event isn’t until after Christmas, so I am waiting to see if I spot any more discounts. But these are the three dresses that I am choosing from – as of today, anyway.
Maggy London Chiffon Dress, which is available in this teal blue or black. I am thinking the blue just to be different, but then there is a shoe problem.
Donna Ricco Bead Detail Dress. I like this, but not too sure if I want to go sleeveless as I am always so cold. But I love the detail of the beads and the way the flow of the dress “hides” my middle. This one comes in a few more colors as well, but I love the pewter shade for this time of year.
Calvin Klein Taffeta Wrap Dress, which is my leading fave. I love how his clothes fit on me and I can never go wrong with a wrap dress.
Which is your fave of three, as in if you could have any of them, which would you choose?

















My favorite would be the first one. I like the teal for something different, but I probably would buy it in black. It’s pretty classic and black is always easier.
I know – I still cannot decide. I planned on shopping today, but the blizzard kept me back. And you are right – I will probably go with black because I will always be able to wear it again and again.
