I never need an excuse to accessorize with major statement bling, but as the holidays are approaching, I’m getting inspired more & more each day! Even though Halloween is on most people’s minds, I can’t wait for the extra sparkle in my wardrobe to take center stage between Thanksgiving & New Year’s. In order to do that, I need a neutral & versatile base item, like a dress, for multiple styling options, such as:

SHOP: Fit & Flare shirred crinkle maxi dress in blackjack, gold oriented, black floral, & animal print @Old Navy ($59.99 + 25% off at checkout, available in sizes XS-4X).

The midi length, sweetheart bust, cinched waist, & flowy layers make this a perfect go-to party dress, wherever the season takes you. For a holiday party with coworkers, throw on a velvet blazer & patterned tights. If headed to a family party, wear an embellished cardigan & patent leather ballet flats. For a wedding, grab a lace bolero & your best evening sandals.

How would you style this dress? Which color or print do you like the best? Where would you wear this to? For more stylish posts, check out: a plaid skirt for all sizes from J.
