Who doesn’t love a good excuse to buy a new frock right?
And I think the silly season is one of the BEST reasons to treat yo-self with some new threads for Christmas Day.
If you’re here in NZ, the weather could do anything, but generally in Aussie it’s pretty hot, so a nice, light dress is always a great idea.
I LOVE wearing dresses in summer ((‘m still trying to engineer how to wear all my cute summer frocks and breast-feed,…. but that’s a whole other post).
The REASON I love wearing dresses in Summer is that you have so much versatility in how you wear them! (there’s my favourite word again – versatility)!. It’s all about what you style the frock with right? Back yard BBQ – just add some jandals. After-work drinks? Pop on a wedge.
So I’ve found 5 fab frocks that would work a treat on Christmas Day, and given you some styling ideas on how you could rock them…..
SHOP THE LOOK: My Boutique “Montana Dress” in violet $69.95 | Witchery circle ring $21.90 and necklace $54.90 | Trenery “Molly” wedges $179.00
I LITERALLY just bought this frock! I saw it on another blogger (called Caitlin too – snap!) and had to have it! How fun is the print and style! It’s from a gorgeous little boutique in Perth. The style is really fun, flattering, yet helps cover arms and tummy if there are problem areas for you.
I love the freshness of the print, so I’ve kept the accessories simple, with silver jewellery and some crisp white shoes. Book your spray tan in now to look rested and relaxed in this number on Christmas Day!
SHOP THE LOOK: Geo Tripper Dress from The Chasing Cait Shop $159.95 | Witchery nail polish in “sunset” $14.90 | Denim & leather heels from StyleTread.com.au $179.95^ | Colette by Colette Hayman necklace $19.99
This is SUCH a comfy dress to wear on Christmas Day! It’s got some nice shape and drape but it isn’t tight so you can eat and drink to your heart’s content haha! Play with the colours and pair it back with oranges, blues and whites.
SHOP THE LOOK: Jeanswest dress $119 | Glassons one piece togs $39.90 | Max fedora hat $49.99^ | Decjuba jelly sandals $39.99^
Hands up if you’re spending Christmas Day at the beach? Then this look is for you! I love this beach throw-on number from Jeanswest, but you could totally wear it to dinner at night too! Pop it on over your togs to head to the beach and don’t forget a hat! This cute number from Max matches perfectly, as do the sandals from Decjuba.
I LOVE a tie waist, it works on everyone! If you have a defined waist already, this will help shop it off, if you don’t, it gives the illusion that you do.
SHOP THE LOOK: Iris dress from The Chasing Cait Shop $149.95 | Witchery sunnies $89.90 | Country Road slides $109.00
This is what I’m planning on wearing on Christmas Day! It’s lightweight, A-line (so not clingy at all) AND it has pockets! #dresseswithpocketsrock am I right? It’s made from a gorgeous soft viscose so you won’t sweat in it, and the blue and white colours are so fresh, and will suit almost everyone!
Team it back with some relaxed slides and your sun-smart sunnies and a hat for a relaxed Christmas Day
SHOP THE LOOK: Little Party Dress “Polly” OTS dress $64.95 | Seed pom pom clutch $59.90 | Rubi Shoes pom pom sandals $29.99
If you want to embrace the Summer trends this Christmas Day then this look is for you. Get your tan on, pop on you LWD (little white dress) and add some fun with the pom pom accessories!
Off The Shoulder is SUCH a hot look right now, and I think that anyone can rock it! Just get yourself a great strapless bra (see THIS post for my tip on where to find just that) and a little double-sided tape to hold the sleeves in place and you are good to go!
Christmas is SOOOOO close! Don’t leave it until RIGHT at the last minute to think about what you are wearing, if you’re quick, you can order any of these frocks and you’ll have them before the 25th of Dec.

Until Next Time, In Love & Style,
