The holidays are expensive enough without adding the cost of a new dress [1] to wear to all of the parties on your calendar (though there's no shame in repeating [2], ladies). Amazon is here to help you look fashionable and festive, while still leaving you enough cash for presents for others — or maybe just a pair of amazing shoes [3] or a new bauble [4] for yourself.
The following 21 Amazon dresses are all holiday party ready [5] and super affordable. Each is less than $100, but their small price tags don't mean they're not majorly chic. Sequins, velvet, bows, and lace add serious sparkle and style to these Amazon dress finds. Check them all out to find your favorite. The only thing left to do is put on the carols, pour yourself a glass of Champagne, and wait for the compliments to pour over you.
