Mission: Party Dress

December is here. You have probably already received (or will receive) a barrage of Holiday Party invites. You search your closet, and only find the little black dress you wore last year. Sigh.

Have no fear! Head to Nordstrom (or Nordstrom.com). I was just at the Nordstrom near me solving my own festive dilemma. Nordstrom has dresses that fit any body type and budget.

Juniors: If you can get away with shopping in the Junior’s department like one of my fit and fabulous girlfriends, you can really score a major deal. And, I may be just a tad jealous, but enough about me. My girlfriend found this adorable yet evening-ish jersey, v neck number for fifty bucks! It was made by a brand called Velvet Torch and comes not only in the dreaded basic black, but also beautiful jewel tones like a royal blue and a deep red.

I bet you are wondering what I bought for my holiday festivities. Well, after picking up some shoes in Brass Plum (that is what Nordstrom’s Junior’s Department is called) we headed to the Misses Department.

Misses: I scored an awesome, fun and flirty number by Calvin Klein for under a hundred dollars! I also wanted something un-black and I found it in a lovely sage green. My dress is a lovely silk Charmeuse that falls just above the knee and has a drop hem so that when I twirl it will have a fun, floaty effect. And there will be twirling. ‘Tis the season!
