Find your fit
First things first, focus on your fit. By taking the time to find the most correct fit for you and you alone, you’ll find that getting your way to your dream dress is so much easier – both now, and for every purchase you make after the holidays! Take a measuring tape and note down your dimensions to help guide you when you’re shopping online. You can also take stock of the silhouettes that already feature on repeat in your wardrobe – this will give you a great idea of the shapes and styles that you already know and love, meaning you can make a choice that is most aligned with what makes you feel your best each and every day.
Experiment with accents
Next, it is time to think about the design of your dress. While the shape is undoubtedly the most important component when you are shopping for the dream look, design features and unique embellishments also really have the power to make all the difference – especially if you are hunting for a look that truly stands out from the crowd. Pay attention to defining design components such as geometric patterns, cool cutouts, wrap tie accents and eye-catching leg splits for a dress that really is something special that will define the holidays.

Shine on shine
The holidays bring that fabulous opportunity to get really, really dressed up – so why not take it and style a shine-on-shine look that is all impact and all elegance? Choose a pair of glittering wrap heels and silver embellished earrings in a dramatic drop down shape to dial up the shimmer of your dress. This look is perfect for black tie events, formal celebrations and for contending in the best dressed wedding guest competition! Simply finish with loose waves and your favourite eye make up look for a stunning ensemble that is sure to turn heads.
Get tonal
If you want to opt for a less high impact look that is still stunningly elegant, turn your attention towards tones instead of finish. If you are styling a gold sequin dress, play up the warm tones with cream and beige leather accessories and finish with delicate gold jewelry for a modern monochromatic look.
