Tis the Season for sparkles and sequins.
Time to break into those holiday party dresses. You can might even be able to bust out those sequin leggings you’ve had tucked away in your closet. I try not to spend a ton of money on holiday dresses because I don’t feel you get a ton of bang for your buck with them. A good quality LBD you can dress up or down, add accessories and completely change the whole look. A sequined mini dress…..there are only a few times you can wear it before it is time to retire it.
I am always a firm believer if you find a fabulous dress on sale, buy it and tuck it away. It will come in handy somewhere down the line, instead of having to scramble last minute and paying full price.
I found this gem over 6 months ago, so naturally it’s sold out but I found some great similar pieces like this one here. I liked that it had sleeves, easy to transition it to the cooler months. Add some black tights, boots or booties, throw a vest or fitted coat over the top and it works for those cooler temps. How fabulous is this sequin coat and a great price point!
I am so in love with the lace sleeves on this one. If you want the most perfect disco ball dress look no further. Totally crushing on this sequin maxi skirt. The ultimate black mini sequin dress.
Don’t want to commit to over the knee boots? No worries, just get a pair of knee high socks and you totally can rock that look without the full commitment.

Love all of this! I just got a fun sequined party dress for $50 last weekend. I have no where to wear it, but I was thinking like you, I have it now! Yay, so happy to win the giveaway!
So fun… great picks, lady!
I love the way you paired the dress with the boots and the fur vest! It looks perfect for winter, to either wear to a Christmas party or to NYE!
You can never go wrong with a sequin mini-dress! Love this look and the OTK socks tip!
I ADORE this dress on you. you look stunning. ahh this whole look. just LOVE it! Totally nailed it.
Gorgeous dress for the holidays! The entire outfit is on point….Love it! I need a faux fur vest in my life. lol
I LOVE the dress paired with the socks and boots! So fun!!
I agree. When you find a good dress get it. I have one I got quite a while ago and still haven’t worn, but I have it for when I need it! Love that silver dress on you.
Love your dress!! And that reminds me.. I need to start looking for something sparkly for Vegas!!

That dress is so cute on you!!! I love how long that vest is too. I agree, sparkly dresses don’t get a lot of wear. I would rather dress up a LBD or something to make it look holiday-y.
super fun dress girl! i totally agree about grabbing something when you find it, if you wait for when you need it, you won’t find anything lol
So cool and stylish!You look perfect!!

dresses under $100? consider me SOLD. so many cute options for holiday dresses. thanks for sharing these girl!
Such a gorgeous dress on you, I love the metallics which are perfect for the parties this time of year. And I agree on not investing too much in a dress that’ll only be worn once. I try to stick in the under $50 category for holiday party dresses <3

You are STUNNING & this dress is so pretty! I love how it has the texture of the sequins AND the pattern, but keeps it all neutral so it doesn’t look over the top! T shirt dresses are my fav style since they’re easy to dress up and dress down!
I’m a horrible shopper and I have the hardest time finding affordable dresses, so I love this round-up of ideas!
You look amazing, lady! And I love all the gorgeous dresses, so fun and festive.
Loving this sparkle! I am getting so excited for New Years. It is the only legitimate day of the year to get away with looking like a disco ball :)

I’m loving all these picks – that black lace sleeved dress is something I’ve been looking for!
I’m totally with you. I don’t love spending a lot of money on NYE dresses unless it’s something I can wear again! xo, Champagne&Suburbs
