Holiday Wishlist: Party Dresses

Aside from the food, there is one thing that you can expect a lot of this coming holidays: parties! Whether I'm attending parties with friends or corporate events, dressing up is highest in my priority list. I do like to glam it up once in a while but your options shouldn't be limited by the party's dress code. Good thing, online shops and boutiques have stocked up on plenty of party dresses to choose from. But if the sheer volume of choices can overwhelm you, here's a trick you can try: categorize your dress options into three different looks and narrow down your choices based on what kind of look you're aiming for.

Laces, silk, and lots of delicate patterns and fabrics. Most glam dresses are simple in cut but makes up for it by the delicate nature of the pattern and fabric. I definitely have an unyielding love for lace but an LBD or LWD are old standbys, too.

Fun and flirty dresses are ideal for casual to semi-casual holiday parties. Make sure to opt for short frocks to maintain that flirty vibe. However, try to play it up with quirky patterns and colors to give a somewhat naughty twist to a simple frock.

 This is the go-to option for cocktail events or corporate parties this December. Color block designs are the most distinctive element of sophisticated dresses. In addition, it teases by not revealing too much. If you've got the curves, this is one look that you will definitely be able to pull off!
