i officially have found the most perfect Christmas dress! it’s red, looks great with or without tights {depending on where you live}, has the cutest ruffle hem, and is fully stocked! throw on a coat over it for the perfect wintry look. oh, and did i mention it’s under $100!? i’ve been stressing on what to wear for actual Christmas Eve {it falls on the Sabbath + i always like dressing up a bit for the holiday}, and this is it! my favorite part? i spaced photographing it, but it has the prettiest bow tie in the back at the neck. also, how killer are these gold metallic heels? also under $100, so you won’t break the bank either.

online only until the 17th, River Island is having a ‘Spend and Save’ event, too! when you spend $100, you automatically receive $20 off. there aren’t any exclusions, so you can even shop the sale section! i’m just about done Christmas shopping, but there’s a few gifts i’m picking up from River Island while this promotion is going on, like this and this. cheers to finally feeling on top of this crazy busy month! xx
