Dresses: Shiny, Sparkly, Bold & Bright

A billion (okay, more like a dozen) drool-inducing sparkly, shiny, luxe and lush dresses for les holiday season!

($456, Nanette Lepore, Net-a-porter.com)
So deliciously late-70s. Glittery and glam yet still sexy and seductive without showing too-too much (yes, it's short, but this would look perfect with black tights.)



($925, See By Chloe, Net-a-porter.com)
Square sequins = manna from heaven. Though for nearly a grand, they better have been handsewn by elves.


($89, Asos.com)
I like this, but is it a little too obviously like "Hey! Look at me! I'm doing the jeweled dress trend!"?


($418, Petro Zillia, ShopPetroZillia.com)
Same thing? The paper bag waist might not be necessary, but it is helpful if you're hiding a fetus... or a food baby.


($300, Dallin Chase, Blaec.com)
Way chiller. And it looked adorbs on J.Lo:




($265, Karta, Net-a-porter.com)
A nice way to work the metallic trend without going too overboard. This piece still has a sorta folksy feel to it. Yay!


($660, Abaete, Bergdorf Goodman)
Or you could go TOTALLY overboard with this amazingly fun Abaete tank dress covered in paillettes. I know I would.


($795, Stella McCartney, Net-a-porter.com)
Also a beautiful holiday piece -- a healthy alternative to the I'm-not-wearing-a-dress-so-I'm-wearing-a-sparkly-top-and-black-pants look.



($348, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Bergdorf Goodman)
Perfect perfect perfect holiday dress. Love the contrast of the elegant eggplant and the more bright and festive sash. Yay!


($450, Abaete, Saks Fifth Avenue)
Absolutely stunning. Soooo Grecian goddess-chic. Though even a Grecian goddess might not be able to rock this very slim-lookin' number. Hm. Best left on the racks and to you rail-thin 55378008 chicks out there.



($587, Viktor & Rolf, Net-a-porter.com)
Oh mah stars. I freaking LOVE this. It's like Knots Landing goes to Colette. Want want want!


'80s DRAMA!
