But you don\u2019t have to break the bank for festive attire to be dazzling at your gathering.<\/p>\n<p>Start with a classic LBD and you\u2019ll never go wrong. From a company cocktail party to an elegant dinner out, a little back dress is the most versatile piece of clothing in your wardrobe. Wear it to work with a blazer and classic pumps and swap out your accessories at the end of the day to be party-ready.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2167 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/entire-outfit.jpg\" alt=\"entire outfit\" width=\"351\" height=\"568\" data-size=\"401x649\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/entire-outfit.jpg 401w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/entire-outfit-185x300.jpg 185w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 351px) 100vw, 351px\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>This version has the embellishment built in so you don\u2019t have to worry about finding a statement necklace or earrings to accent it. The ruffled and beaded neckline makes a simple knit velour dress a comfortable and stylish choice.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/3inrow.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full \" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/3inrow.jpg\" alt=\"3inrow\" width=\"947\" height=\"257\"  \/> <\/a><\/p>\n<p>A simple pair of gold hoops is always a classic choice and will not compete with the details on the dress. A graphic metallic clutch is trendy and can accommodate your necessities and a must-have bright holiday red lip gloss! The leopard flats are a comfortable alternative to stilettos. The low heel is perfect for dancing the night away or networking at your company party. The leopard is a neutral and will coordinate with many things already in your wardrobe after the holidays.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Kirsten-in-LBD.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2168 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Kirsten-in-LBD.jpg\" alt=\"Kirsten in LBD\" width=\"159\" height=\"239\" data-size=\"346x520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Kirsten-in-LBD.jpg 346w, https:\/\/staging.yourgoodwill.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Kirsten-in-LBD-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/> <\/a>The last accessory you need is the most important &#8211; your smile.
