The flattering River Island dress you'll want in your life for party season.

Christmas is just around the corner and during the festive season, there are usually a few nights out between catch-ups with pals at home, New Year parties and of course, the annual St Stephen's Day shindig. You might want to pick up a new dress for the occasion and we've found a rather fab one if you feel like getting dressed up for New Year's Eve. The best thing about this flattering River Island dress is the fact that this is one you can wear again and again and it won't go out of fashion. For my Christmas party last week, I wore a black dress that I've had for three years proving that the little black dress truly is a style staple. The one I'm crushing on currently is the Black Ribbed Trim Bodycon Midi Dress and if black isn't for you then there's also a leopard-print option. Both dresses are priced at €43 and that's very affordable considering the number of times you'll reach for this piece in your wardrobe, trust me. The side slit and low back are super flattering and this is the type of piece that makes you feel dressed up as soon as you put it on, winning. If you're looking for some winter fashion inspiration, then have a look at this rather gorgeous Instagram featuring the perfect outfit - chunky knit, skirt and belt. The skirt is the Grey Snake Print Pleated Midi Skirt and it's priced at €43 and again, this is a piece you can wear so many different ways. Snake print is also a major trend right now so if you haven't bought into the trend just yet, now is the time to snap the perfect piece up.
