From office shindigs to slightly more elegant affairs, our calendars are filling up fast with holiday (and pre-holiday!) parties. While we’re looking forward to the festive fun, we’re facing the inevitable question: What to wear?

Of course, we all want to look as chic as possible at any fete, but we also want to feel comfortable in clothes that both dazzle and flatter.
