A winter lover’s wonderland: Nordstrom
Is it any surprise Nordstrom is our go-to retailer when it comes to holiday dresses? Like most other categories, Nordstrom just gets it right and brings the best and biggest selection. And we mean it when we say big..there’s over 16k dresses on their site rn – crazy, right?! This is definitely an advantage to shopping with Nordstrom, you don’t feel like you’re going to show up to your child’s Christmas recital matching 3 other moms!
If that wasn’t enough, we seriously can’t sing the praises loud enough for Nordstrom’s rewards program, in house alterations, curbside pick-up, AND free returns all thanks to the Nordy club. Pro tip: stash up those bonus points throughout the year and cash them in when it’s time to do your holiday shopping to save some pennies! If you’re not already a member, what are you waiting for?!

Slide to see our fave picks:
Holiday dress #1: Tuxedo Dress
Tuxedo dresses are particularly on-trend right now – they're a sophisticated twist on the classic “power dressing” look while being versatile enough for both office holiday parties and evening events. The embellished bow-tie sash aligns with the “quiet luxury” aesthetic that's been dominating fashion. And it comes in the cutest Christmas red! Pair with some tights and ballet flats for a polished cold weather look and you're set for holiday festivities.
Holiday dress #2: Wrap Maxi Dress
More of a classic LBD (little black dress), this faux wrap dress checks all of the boxes for us! It has a romantic detailed ruffle hem down the front and a glossy satin fabric that catches the light beautifully. Did we mention it's a *faux* wrap dress?! Aka no need to worry about your dress unraveling accidentally at your holiday event. Plus the satin belt tie creates a super flattering silhouette! Black remains a winter classic, and we're loving this monochrome look with a favorite bag and pair of strappy heels.
‘Tis the season…to get dressed up!
From the nutcracker to the company holiday party, these are both beautiful holiday dresses that will be perfect for this special season. There’s something so magical about this time of year, and what it truly means. We hope you are able to celebrate with your loved ones and feel beautiful while doing so (in one of these gorg dresses – wink wink!).
