The ultimate party dress guide for all of your end of year events.

Holiday season is here, friends, and with that comes the onslaught of Christmas parties, New Year's Eve events and a bunch of other gatherings that require sparkly dresses.

We're not complaining – we're always looking for an excuse to wear an extravagant frock. 

And if you haven't scored your party looks yet, now is the time to start adding to cart, because everyone is going to be rushing to get their hands on an outfit any second now.

Because I love to harp on about fashion, I've compiled a list of the best dresses for each occasion. A good festive outfit is one that can be worn outside of the holidays as well, so don't worry, these are versatile and they're certainly not something you'll only get one use out of.

So, whether you're shopping for a Christmas party or New Year's Eve drinks, here are the best dresses for the festive season.
