The holiday season is here which means time to start looking for that perfect dress for your holiday party or New Year’s Eve party! I love getting all dolled up in a fancy dress with lace or sequins. What I don’t like is spending several hundred dollars for a dress that I can only wear once a year. I use to be able to wear the same dress to multiple events, so spending $200-300 wasn’t so bad. But thanks to social media, everyone sees what you wear to everything. No more wearing one dress to all your holiday parties. Luckily, I found some really cute dress options for under $100! Whether you are looking for lace or sequins, or just something simple and sophisticed, I have you covered in the Buy Me section of this post. Some of these dresses also come in multiple color options too!
The second part of this post is the rent me section. If you love wearing expensive dresses but hate the price tag, Rent the Runway may just become your new best friend. I LOVE this site!!! I have rented several dresses from this site for birthday parties, weddings, and holiday parties. I love getting to wear designer labels for a fraction of the cost. Plus, I don’t have to worry about the fact that it is all over social media and I can’t wear it again, ever! If you have never used this site before, you can score 20% off your first rental. All 4 of these are in the $35-100 rental price range. The rental price varies by designer and retail value of the dress. I start my search for the perfect dress by entering the day I need the rental, desired rental price range, and selecting my size. I then peruse the available dresses until I find the one. They not only send you the dress in the size you select, but a second size of the same dress just in case! I always use this option, and it has come in handy once for a low cut sequin dress I ordered for my birthday a few years ago. On top of that, you can rent a second dress for a reduced price. They really want to make sure that if you rent a dress from them that you are satisfied and have a dress you love for your special occasion I usually select for the dress to arrive the day before I need it and do the 4 day rental. If you are interested in using this service for New Year’s Eve, I recommend renting a dress soon! Dresses go fast for that holiday and options and sizes will quickly become unavailable. Happy Shopping!!

So first off, the Adele album is AMAZING!! I couldn’t even pick a favorite song because each one has something about it that I love! The album is true Adele with such a feeling of emotion behind each note whether it is that cheeky playfulness in an upbeat song or the emotion of a broken heart in a slow ballad. I may have had to wait a bit for this new album, but it was well worth it!!
I cannot believe Thanksgiving is this week!! I really feel the holiday season and parties kick in to high gear after Thanksgiving. I wanted to share a fun holiday dress, perfect for a dressy Christmas party or New Year’s Eve gathering. I love a few things about this dress. For starters, I love just about anything in this maroon color! The color is seriously slowly taking over my closet. I love the tie at the neck and the open neckline area. The detail is one of the standouts of the dress that allows you to show a little skin without being too over the top. The other is the cute little slits in the skirt portion. You can dress this up with nude pumps and gold jewelry like I did here for a dressy Christmas party look or toss on some over the knee boots or midi booties to create a bit more of a dressed down and trendy look for New Year’s Eve.
I’m so excited to partner with Revolve Clothing today to help Stand Up To Cancer! Revolve partnered with a few of their best-selling brands to curate a capsule collection of some amazing and beautiful clothes. 30% of the proceeds from this collection will benefit the Stand Up to Cancer initiative. The collection has a 70s vibe and lots of fun holiday dresses and party outfit ideas! Stand Up to Cancer helps raise funds to accelerate research and find new therapies to help save lives. Their mission is to turn cancer patients into cancer survivors! I pretty much love everything in this collection, and I shared a few of my favorites in the widget below. You can also donate directly to Stand Up to Cancer on the Revolve website. I’m such a huge supporter of shopping for a cause, and I cannot think of a more perfect holiday dress than one that also helps support the fight against cancer!
