Take a cue from Justin Timberlake and “bring sexy back” this holiday with this show stopping number. It’s impossible not to look H-2-T gorge (head to toe gorgeous) in this sparkly bodycon! No need for jewellery with this one. Instead, opt for loosely curled hair and strappy heels and you’re ready for a glitzy night out. Race ya to the checkout!
Metallic Wrap Plunge Mini Bodycon Dress

Up your style this season with this stand out mini. Style it with a nude lip-gloss and a clutch for a look that just screams très sophistiqué. This wrap bodycon dress is the perfect dress for the season and will have everyone green with envy.
Lace Bra Cup Dress

Lace be honest girl, you’ll be looking fab to the max in this jaw dropping lace bodycon dress. Team it with a silver clutch and strappy heels for an on fleek ensemble. What’s more, this dress is great for creating those famous Kardashian curves. Unfortunately, the dress doesn’t come with the lush Kardashian lifestyle #bummer. But hey, a gal can always dream *sigh*.
Shelly Strappy Velvet Skater Dress
Where to find it: boohoo
Price: £22
If you’ve happened to come across pictures from the Giorgio Armani AW15 fashion show, you will know that velvet is back in style. If you’re anything like me you might not be sure if you’re yay or nay for the revival of velvet… Nevertheless, if this fashion trend needs to be done, it’s got to be done well. A velvet dress is pretty much a must-have now that the cold weather has set in. This red velvet skater dress from boohoo will help play up your fun and feminine side. So, this season put on your LRD – because the cold never bothered you anyway (yup I totally went there).
T Scallop Hem Bodycon Mini Dress
Where to find it: ASOS
Price: £17.99
Wham glam thank you Ma’am! This evening number paired with a bold red lip is bound to turn more than a few heads. Now you might be thinking that going with a LBD is too predictable and that it has been done before, but it’s a classic for a reason. Remember, Christian Dior once said: “You can wear black at any time. You can wear it at any age. You may wear it for almost any occasion”. Are you really going to argue with Dior? Yeah…didn’t think so!
Sequin Bodycon Dress
Where to find it: Nelly
Price: £34.95
Stand out in a sea of black with this sparkling gold sequin dress, a perfect choice if you want to show off your curves and legs. As sequins can be quite a statement, the rest of your outfit can be effortless in regards to makeup and accessories- let the dress do the talking. If you still feel the need to accessorize you can always pair it with a glass of sparkling champagne *wink* *wink*.
Daniella Cream Mesh Insert Mini Dress
Where to find it: PRETTYLITTLETHING
Price: £30
Dreaming of a white Christmas? This white mini dress, with its mesh insert design, is essential for your party season wardrobe. Hey, if our gal J.Law can rock the white dress to the LA premier of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay part 2, then you can wear it to that upcoming Christmas party. Just add a pop of colour to the look with a cherry red lipstick and you’re ready to kill it!
If these dresses don’t fill you with Holiday cheer, I don’t know what will!
