Christmas Party Dress Hunt: ASOS


Since I got such a good response from my post about Christmas Party Dress Hunting in New Look (You can read that post here) I thought maybe I'll do a couple more posts from didn't shops / sites leading up to the festive period.
These are all from asos.com.

I love this dress. It's got the collar on it which is on trend at the moment and I love the skirt on it that puffs out sorta like a tutu. I'm also a lover of lace, so you can't really go wrong with this dress.
Again with the lace (I am rather obsessed!) and I adore the colour of this dress. A burgundy red wine sort of colour is definitely in season and especially for the month of December. I also like that it has little sleeves, which if your like me and hate your arms this would make me feel a little bit more secure and comfortable.
3. ASOS Party Dress with Velvet Trim - £40.00 £30.00
I know a lot of people tend to steer away from the lighter colours around Christmas time. Red wine + a cream dress = DISASTER! But I thought I would just throw this one in to the mix as a suggestion in case your attending a alcohol free soiree.
  I chose this dress as it's different to anything I've really seen before. I love the sequinned collar and bodice with the mesh material going across the chest area. Being a curvy girl, I'm not too keen on bodycon dresses but its not something that can't be solved with a pair of spanx!
Can you see a pattern emerging here? Another dress which is black & gold with sequins! Well everyone loves a bit of sparkle at their Christmas party don't they? This is a fun little dress that could still be worn after the festive period on a night out. And it's discounted at the moment...bonus!!
I thought I would chuck in another festive colour and a favourite for a lot of people, a little red dress! Again the bodice covered in sequins with a lovely chiffon skirt. The bodice has a wonderful cornelli flower design.

Christmas Party Dress Hunting in New Look


It's that time of year again, everyone is going manic trying to find the perfect dress for the Christmas party. Whether it be a friends party, family or work you just know when you find 'THE' dress. So I thought why not do a blog post on a couple of dresses I found whilst browsing the New Look site.

This is actually the dress I have purchased for my work Christmas party. I love the 2 chiffon sides which as a curvy girl helps hide some lumps and bumps I don't like to show. I also love the contrast between the pink bodycon dress and the black chiffon.
2. Gold Sequin 2 in 1 Sleeveless Dress - £27.99 £17.99
This is your typical Christmas party dress, sequins galore. But I do love the floaty white bottom of the dress. And the fact that is discounted...bonus!!
Again another sequin number, this time completely sequinned out! I've never owned a all sequin dress but one day hopefully I will. The only thing I find about sequins on the top part of a dress is they always seem to scratch my arms, any ideas on how to stop this??
This is a dress on the more expensive end of the scale. It's a lovely mix of lace and silk, which definitely gives it it's luxurious price tag. Also skater type dresses seem to be very popular at the moment.
Ok so I went a little bit sequin crazy when picking dresses. But who doesn't love a bit of bling on their dress at Christmas? I personally love dresses with an open back (although it does make it difficult to find a bra to wear!).

I found it so hard to whittle it down to just a few dresses. If you guys like this post I might do some more from other stores. What do you think?
