NEW YEARS EVE DRESS GUIDE

Whether you have a budget to Splurge, Save, or Steal on your outfit for this NYE I have you covered. If you're feeling extra daring I recommend this amazing Milly sequin jumpsuit. But if you want to play it safe and be serious thrifty this black lace number is only $40! Personally I want to pull out all the stops and look like a disco ball threw up on me - so clearly I need this dress in my life : ) Which dress is calling your name??

Another day another holiday party. I literally feel like I have an event every night until Christmas, so keeping my outfits fresh can be exhausting and a bit pricey! In my search for more affordable options, I ran across this little number from the LC Lauren Conrad Collection for Kohl's. It's not everyday you find a dress this cute for under $40! See the rest of her Holiday collection here.

HOLIDAY #MOMENTSOFCHIC

KEEPSAKE forever dress & JOIE jena sandals c/o PIPERLIME | INTERMIX plaid coat | ANN TAYLOR necklace

One of my favorite fabrics for a cocktail dress is neoprene. Why is neoprene so fabulous? Well it basically acts like built in spanx which for holiday parties, with all of the eating and boozing, is quite convenient. In my opinion, no one does neoprene better than the Aussie's-especially the brand Keepsake. Ps. Not only are their designs super flattering, but also affordable-my dress rings up at only $160! What do you think, would you try a neoprene dress for your next holiday soiree #momentofchic?
