Wardrobe: One Dress in Two Perfect Holiday Looks

Hello Dears,

Christmas is only a few days away!  Imagine this, you just bought a new dress that looks amazing on you, and you want to show it off more than once, but you don’t want to do the same outfit again and again because that’s just no bueno.  Well, we have some tips for you! Here’s how to wear one dress to all of your holiday parties.

Essentials: The Dress
Velvet is the must-try fabric this season. This black velvet midi dress is super flattering and so versatile. Dress it down, dress it up: it’s a classy update to the little black dress in your closet.

Look #1: The Office Holiday Party
A work function might be on the bottom of your to-do list, but the office festivities can be a chance to wear something outside of your normal 9-to-5 dress code.

Take the velvet midi dress, which is both work-appropriate and sophisticated, and add another hot trend: sock ankle boots. These red patent leather ones will bring a little fun to your work gathering. Pair them with a neutral-tone maxi coat to get a sleek silhouette and add a glitter box clutch to bring some holiday cheer to your professional ensemble.

Look 1: Midi Dress + Coat + Clutch + Wine Color Boots 

Look 2: Holiday Dinner at Home
A dinner party with family and friends is a time to relax, spend time with loved ones and enjoy some (a lot of) yummy food! We recommend this outfit which combines comfort and style without having to worry about the food baby we’re guilty of after a delicious meal.

Oversized sweaters have been popular for the past few seasons and for DistrictGals like us they’re perfect to toss on over the midi dress for a new outfit. It’s casual, cute, warm, and just right for cozying up next to the fireplace. Put on a jingle bell choker and a longer necklace, and you’re ready to chill with the fam.

Look 2: Oversized Sweater + Jingle Bell Choker + Long Necklace
