Holiday parties are upon us! If you’re planning to celebrate the season, there’s so much to prepare. For hosts, you have to put up Christmas decorations, come up with fun Christmas activities for everyone to enjoy, and of course, make a festive feast complete with appetizers, dinner, drinks, and desserts. For those of you going to a gathering, you’re probably still making a dish or two, and you’ll also want to consider hostess gifts.

But whether you're planning a party or showing up as a guest, you also need to come up with Christmas outfits that are worthy of the most wonderful time of the year. Our idea: Christmas dresses styled with festive earrings that will come together to make sure you shine brighter than any Christmas tree.

Finding so many festive outfits can be easier said than done. So, if you’re in need of outfit inspo for all the holiday shindigs coming up on your calendar, Alex Drummond has you covered! After attending a Christmas party herself, she shared the beautiful green dress she wore to celebrate.

How seasonally sophisticated! The dress is made of a festive emerald green voile fabrication with a lattice print that's just so gorgeous. And with an A-line silhouette and tie-front detail, it has the most flattering fit that can easily be tailored for your waistline. We also love all of the details: a smocked mock neckline and sleeves, a tiered skirt, and ruffles along the bodice. Alex paired her dress with black boots, but you can dress it up even more with heels or go the more comfortable route with classic flats.
