New Years Eve Dress Picks

New Years Eve Dress Inspiration



 I think this is one of the best times of the year to wear pretty dresses. Something sparkly, feminine, and gorgeous is appropriate to help bring in the New Year.

Here are my picks for the perfect New Years Eve dress! {from left to right}

 First up is this Scatter Sequin Dress from Warehouse. It has the perfect amount of sparkle for the Holiday, plus it fits any figure beautifully {My friend owns it and loves it!}

This bright Art Spot Dress from Oasis is a bit unexpected for the holiday, as we often go for muted colors with sparkle, but is beautiful. Pairing it with tights and pumps will dress it up for that extra oomph of glamour!

If you live in a cold climate, long sleeved dresses are a great pick. I love this gorgeous Sequined Dress from H&M. It's great all year round, but the long sleeves make it more appropriate for Winter!

This gorgeous Foil Pleated Slip Dress from Topshop has been on my wish list ever since I first saw it come on the website. It's so lovely and dainty, and perfect for New Years Eve parties and celebrations!

A bit more pricy, but beautiful, is this Limited Edition Mirror Embellished Slip Dress from Topshop. I think it's insanely gorgeous and so sparkly and glittery for celebrating the New Year!

More sparkle for the New Year is in this completely affordable Sequined Dress from H&M. It's only about $30 and is a bit different, bringing in that 20's vibe with the color and fringe!

One of my favorite picks is this Faux Leather Dress from Zara, which is a bit more sophisticated and formal for the New Year. I am definitely lusting over this!

Another gorgeous dress from H&M to add to the list is this cream, Sleeveless Dress, which adds sparkle while also being subdued and natural. 

My last pick is this insanely lovely and intricate Net Fitted Dress from Topshop. I not only want to wear this dress to any New Years Party, but also everyday of my life! It's beautiful!

Holiday Dress Inspiration

Monday, December 15, 2014

Hey everyone! I hope your day is going wonderfully, I know mine is. Today I've got a quick post about Holiday Dress inspiration. 

I've been checking out a few different online sites for some great holiday dresses, as I've got a few family parties and friend parties that I'll be attending and have been really successful in finding inspiration. One great site, avivadress.co.uk reached out to me and asked if I might be interested in checking out their site. I was, because a lot of their dresses are super cute for the holiday season. The site has a bunch of great prom dresses, bridesmaids dresses, and wedding dresses, which I'm definitely not ready for yet, but I found my niche under their cocktail dresses and party dresses sections. There were hundreds of super cute and fun party dresses, for every single age group and personality type. The options were endless.

Finally, I figured out a few of my favorites and I'm going to share with you my picks. 

Dress Inspiration

 My first pick is this A-Line Black Deep V-Neck dress, which is perfectly elegant and appropriate for any sort of party you'd attend. It's the type of style of dress that really flatters every figure and I think it'd be perfect for Christmas and New Years parties. Next up is this gorgeous A-Line Ivory Bateau dress which kind of reminds me of Mad Men, which makes it a lot more fun.  I especially love this Strapless Soft Pink Chiffon dress in particular. Plus, all three of my picks, and most every cocktail dress is under $100 or even less!

A fun feature about the website is that there are customer testimonies at the bottom of each dress. It lets you know exactly what the wearers of the dresses think and feel about their products. It's also incredibly fun to see the clothes in action, rather than only on a model on a website. I often find that I won't know how exactly a clothing item will fit me, so seeing it on women who look like me is pretty special. It's also special to see these really cute pictures of everyone enjoying their dresses at prom and at parties. 

I was happy to see that right now, they have up to 85% off on their site plus quick 2 day shipping if you spend a certain amount. Plus, any size and color are available for all the dresses, and you can choose your preference when you order. It makes it a lot easier to get something you love. 

What's your pick from Aviva? Do you have a favorite website for Holiday dress inspiration?
