Wednesday Want List: Holiday Outfits

4. Flirt Rhinestone Studded Pumps | 5. Midnight Rider Pants | 6. Qupid Lace Booties

It's getting to be that time of the year where holiday parties are in abundance. Don't worry, I have some goodies from my affiliates Lulu's and Nasty Gal to keep you covered if you are still wondering what to wear.

1. This dress from Lulus.com could be used for a holiday party and then again at New Years as long as you know that there won't be anyone from the Holiday party at your NYE bash - unless you're like me and don't care. I like wearing outfits more than once, makes me feel like I got my money's worth. This dress is even better because it's only $40. So if I wore it twice, it would be like I paid $20 for my holiday party outfit and $20 for my NYE outfit. That's a win-win. You know what else is a win-win? The dip in the back. Go on Lulus.com and check it out.
2.  Now if your holiday part is one of the "Ugly Sweater Parties" variety then this sweater is perfect. Odds are, someone will think it is ugly. I, however, think it's cute and an awful idea to waste money on something you'll only wear to one ugly sweater party once a year. Who has room in their closet for that? Not me and definitely not a New Yorker. Plus, it's $100 at TopShop for this one so obviously if you're going to spend that much money on a sweater for a party you better want to wear it more than once. Oh, and don't even say you can find one at Goodwill for $5. I tried and apparently people are hoarding them and selling them online for $75, because that is actually happening according to my room mate.
3. If your holiday party is a little more laid back or colder you can get away with this beautiful dress from NastyGal.com, which you can wear again since it's $68 and it's cute.
4. These shoes can go perfectly with either outfit which is why I picked them. That and they are only $45 from Lulus.com and you can wear them over and over.
5. These pants from NastyGal.com were the perfect match for the "ugly" sweater above it and could be worn multiple times. Everyone needs high-waist skinny ankle pants.
6. These lace booties from Lulus.com are $51 and may only go with the pants outfit for the crocheted dress but I'm sure you can find another use for them because they are all so cute.

I get the pleasure of going to my relatives house down in Redondo Beach for Christmas this year. They always have the most fabulous parties. They have money and their house is huge and the people that come are always highly educated so I love to pick their brains and converse with them about politics and things they'd think someone of my age wouldn't know about. But I've always loved being able to do that. When I was younger I would always much rather converse with the adults than go play with the other "kids." At least now I can drink with them!

How many holiday parties are you planning on attending this year?
