DETAILS: RED OFF-THE-SHOULDER DRESS | BURGUNDY VELVET CLUTCH (SIMILAR HERE) | NUDE PATENT HEELS | SUNGLASSES | SILVER WATCH

I’m so excited for the holidays this year! I have always been the person that insists on waiting until after Thanksgiving to decorate but for some reason this year I’m like 10 times more excited. November 1st I was already out stocking up on my Christmas decor!

Also with the holidays come parties! From work to family to friend festivities, there are a million excuses to get dressed up. If I’ve learned anything in the past about dressing for the holidays it’s that you need to start shopping early. It seems like a lot of holiday parties hit at the end of November and early December (and I’m not complaining!) so you should start thinking about your wardrobe early to get the best pieces.

Red is hands down my favorite color for the holidays. It’s always the first thing I search when I’m shopping online. It’s such a show-stopper and is so flattering on everyone, so the holidays are the perfect excuse to wear that bold red dress – plus there are so many shades of red you’re bound to find one you love.

I found this one and was instantly taken. I’ve never shied away from anything off-the-shoulder, so it was an obvious choice. I also ordered this burgundy lace dress for another event – I loved the subtle burgundy tones with the more conservative but still sexy silhouette. I also had my eye on this fun fit-and-flare dress. Tadashi Shoji dresses are another great option for the holidays. I have a couple and always get tons of compliments when I wear them. I love this one and how amazing is this one?! Below are a few more perfect red dresses for the holidays just because I can’t get enough.
