The perfect dress for every holiday party is only $74 and from JCPenney
It’s not uncommon to have RSVP’d to more holiday parties than the number of outfits you have to wear to each event on your social calendar. But after spending money on gifts for everyone on your “nice” list, the last thing you probably want to do is fork over a fortune on a festive look. Well, allow us to introduce you to one affordable dress that you can wear to all your holiday parties.
Meet “Glow.”
This short-sleeved sequin dress ($74, jcpenney.com) is a part of the limited-edition capsule collection Tracee Ellis Ross created with JCPenney this season. The 45-year-old style maven and Black-ish actress is known for rocking glamorous pieces — well, she does get it from her mama, Diana Ross! — and now she’s blessed the masses with a stunning number. The best part? The sizes run from small to 3X — that’ll work for every occasion and flatter every body type.
Watch the video above for five simple ways to style this one dress. Then keep reading below to shop for each look.

Office happy hour
A little razzle dazzle at the office never hurt nobody! With this dress as the focal point, swap out your daytime flats for a navy pump and you’re ready to celebrate all your hard work. We highly recommend wearing a matte liquid lipstick that will last through schmoozing with co-workers.

Family Christmas dinner
Top your shiny gold dress with a tailored, military-inspired coat and slip on a pair of faux-fur-lined mules — because your mother will probably ask you to run out and purchase items from the grocery store that she forgot to pick up. The best part about this outfit is you won’t have to sacrifice style for comfort.

Holiday house party
Kicking it at the crib with a few close friends? You’ll need tights that don’t rip and boots that can withstand dancing all night long. Not going bare-legged in the winter will also minimize your chances of catching a cold. A runny nose doesn’t go with a sparkly dress.

Masquerade ball
Be the life of the party in a standout sequin number, over-the-knee boots, and an elaborate mask. Make sure you secure a spot near the bar — you’ll have prime access to the mixologists and a seat just in case your feet get sore from standing and sipping.

New Year’s Eve party
Count down to the new year with a matchy-matchy lipstick and clutch to set off your sequins. And if you’re feeling really adventurous, throw on a pair of bright tassel earrings, too. Balance out the vibrant shine and punchy accessories with classic black heels.
