Holiday Dress Shopping

Style expert Nina Garcia knows that all you need to make it through a season's worth of soirees in style are a few great dresses. Here are three distinct frugalista looks to help you out-dress, not out-spend, your fellow holiday revelers.

  1. 1. Be Dazzled

    Be Dazzled

    A sleeveless shift dress in rich jacquard feels even more luxe when topped with a faux fur and accentuated with a chunky gold link bracelet.

    This one-shouldered little black dress shows that a timeless classic needn’t be boring. Add edge to the look with a fashion-forward show and a pop of colorful bangles on your wrist.

  3. 3. Jewel Tones

    Don’t be afraid to mix rich, bold colors. The undertones of the dress, mixed with a stunning statement cocktail ring feel festive while a classic shoe grounds the look.

    Tread lightly into fall with a wool blend cape. Give utilitarian grey an equestrian spin by pairing it back to slim jeans and flat boot.

The Style Strategy

Easy ways to give your look a boost.

Have fun with the dress Wear it to the office or out to dinner, but make sure you have a little fun with the dress too! Add tights or a cute cropped jacket for a more casual look.
Cardigans go everywhere Can’t say enough about the cardigan. Wear it day or night. Dress it up or down. Layer it with a dress or with denim. Belt it. Cardigans are for every season—music to a Frugalista’s ears.
Finish your look Accessories complete the look. A belt helps define your shape and adds interest, while the right bag brings it all together. If you’re going out after work, throw a clutch in your bag and take it out with you for a chic evening look.

Look for fall dresses in amazing prints and patterns. Get more from your dress: Pair with leggings or pants to wear it as a tunic top.

The dress gives you lots of wardrobe-stretching options. Accessories are the easiest way to update your look. Add a belt, scarf and/or boots to create an easy-chic ensemble.

It’s easy to add to your plaid.

You’ll see plaid in lots of silhouettes and colors this fall. This plaid tunic is the perfect transitional piece since it’s easy to layer.

Accent it with a textured scarf, and to dial it up a notch, add a bag that’s super-saturated with fall color.

And your little Frugalista-in-Training can get in on the trend too.

Layer it loose. Belt it high.

The Dress When you layer, don’t worry about making it perfect—the textures keep it interesting. Cardigans are big this season, so add one and belt it high to make your legs look longer.
