Why This Red and Black Bodycon Dress is so Perfect for the Holidays

By Stacey Freeman Leave a Comment

bodycon dress 2
I recently got this gorgeous red and black bodycon dress and I think it’s perfect for a holiday party. I chose this dress because I love the bodycon fit and also the ruffle bottom that flares out. It’s also really fun that it has ruffles right at the sleeve.

I’m wearing a size L in this dress, so it’s definitely stretchy and hugs my body perfectly. I do wish this dress was available in an XL because the sleeves are just a bit short for me. But the good thing about a long sleeve dress is that you can push up the sleeves or even pull off a tea-length sleeve.

I also love some of the other details in this dress, including a cute keyhole back. The print is also so fun. It almost looks like a mix between a floral print and an animal print. The red color isn’t too vibrant. It’s actually a bit more muted than a cherry red. 

I think this is a great bodycon dress for the holidays because it’s modern, form-fitting, and stylish, while not being so traditional for the holidays. I get tired of all of the super obvious holiday dresses, like red or green velvet or lace. Also, I love that this is a very sophisticated bodycon dress. Sometimes I think bodycon dresses can be overtly sexy to the point of almost trashy. I’m much more a fan of subtle sexiness. 


If you’re not sure a bodycon dress is for you, I’m here to tell you to give them a try. Believe me, I wasn’t alway comfortable in bodycon dresses either, but I’ve really learned to embrace my figure. These style of dresses can look good, even on larger body types. 

If you’re looking for holiday dresses, I’m sharing some of my favorite sophisticated bodycon dresses that I think are perfect for your holiday party. If you’re looking for other holiday outfit ideas, click here for an oldie post I wrote.

When’s the last time you accomplished something When’s the last time you accomplished something you never thought you would? 

I still can hardly believe I’m a published children’s book author. This isn’t my first time being published; I’ve written many academic papers and even a book chapter with a colleague about museum activism. But a children’s book? I never imagined or dreamed I could.

Now it’s only 5 more days until my first children’s book hits stores! You can preorder now on Amazon. I appreciate your love and support. Link in stories!

#ad My Gigi is fierce and confident. I'm constantl #ad My Gigi is fierce and confident. I'm constantly amazed by her tenacity and spunk. These are qualities I admire so much in her, and I'm so glad I'm raising a strong girl. It's not that often I see role models on TV for Gigi, but when Nickelodeon sent me the new Walmart That Girl Lay Lay merch, Gigi was so excited because she thinks That Girl Lay Lay is as cool as I think G is. If you haven’t checked out @ThatGirlLayLay yet, head over to Walmart.com/laylay to find all the cute swag so your girl can embody all of the confidence of That Girl Lay Lay too. #ThatGirlLayLay #LayLayAtWalmart @walmart
