I challenge you to look at this tree and not get in the Christmas spirit. It just can’t be done! We all know and love the tree at Rockefeller Center, but with so much holiday spirit around the city, do I really have to pick just one? To find this particular gem, still in Midtown, it’s just a quick walk to the Lotte New York Place Hotel. What I love the most about this tree is how accessible it is. Being able to walk right up to this tree in the hotel’s plaza helps give you a sense of ownership. This tree belongs to everyone!

Sadly, this elegant red midi dress is sold out, but it would still make the perfect pick for an office holiday party. In fact, I’m planning on wearing it to the Christmas party at David’s work, next week. In the past, this dress has come in many colors and I own quite a few of them. It’s a classic dress that can be worn for any occasion.
Since I don’t want to leave you hanging and without a dress to wear for your holiday soiree, I’ve curated over 20 of my favorite pieces to help you make the holidays bright. Being Christmas, red is going to be the major player here, but I’ve scattered a few shades of green and a couple of neutrals to suite everyone. If the budget is sky high or you’re looking to splurge, I am in love with this dress from, who else, RED Valentino. The drop-waist is always one of my favorite styles, but it’s the contrasted stitching that gives it so much character. A similar, but more budget friendly option, would be this darling dress from 19 Cooper. Swap the stitching for ruffled sleeves and the dresses are almost identical!
If you need to compliment a different skin tone, I am in love with this forest green dress from 1901. Again, I’m jumping to the drop-waist, but the luxurious velvet accents and bow collar grab me by the heart strings. Finally, this LBD from BB Dakota is a great option if you are looking for a little something that can be worn all year long. A Swiss dot fabric is always a fun, youthful touch to an other mature and classic dress. Double dip this dress and you can also wear it to your upcoming New Year’s Eve function.
Before I sign-off, I need to share the ultimate Christmas accessory! I’ve worn these golden bauble earrings from Tuckernuck quite a few times, but now that they’re paired next to a Christmas tree, they look just like an ornament. Festive, without being too kitschy, and extremely comfortable, these earrings can (and will) be worn all year long, no matter the holiday season.
Love from NYC,
Katie
