The Winter Dress Edit: 7 Styles for Every Occasion🌟

This time of year, many of us have special events coming up, like family gatherings and holiday parties. As we all know, it can sometimes get a little tricky to find just the right thing to wear! I’ve said it before, but this time of year I get tons of DMs every day (which I love) asking “what do I wear to ___ event?” Special occasions include a semi-formal Thanksgiving dinner, a pre-Christmas cocktail party, outfits for holidays in London … to name just a few. And, I always have the same answer: A DRESS!! This is the easiest way to pull a stylish outfit together, so having a few great dresses in your rotation is key.

Today’s post is a major dress edit. I’m sharing my favorite trends, top picks, and some brand new style board inspo. Keep reading to see 7 winter dresses that will cover you for any occasion. There’s everything from feathers to classic slip dresses to the hottest color of the season. Add jackets, accessories and different types of shoes to make literally dozens of outfits with just this one, standout piece. I hope this post helps you find a few dresses you love — just in time for the holidays! Have fun at all your events 🥂
