12 Ways to Instantly Upgrade Your Party Wardrobe Before the End of the Decade
A confession: I always remember my favorite party nights not by where it was, not by the food, not even by the company, but actually by what I wore. My memory holds an extensive arsenal of all my best nights out, cataloged by my outfits and how I felt wearing them. That being said, as we head into the holiday season, there are plenty of new dresses to be worn, even as the festivities have already started kicking off. These marvelous pieces will have you ready for a merry night out from the moment you get dressed, and who knows? Maybe there are more exciting memories to be made in these looks, too.
Here, shop some of winter’s best (and most flamboyant) going-out pieces—just in time for the festive party season.
