We’ve already started thinking about our Christmas party at chiconomise towers (bit of overexcitement I think�) and I know that what we are going to wear will be a continuous conversation topic in the office until the date finally comes around.

We are spoilt for choice with all the great offers on party wear that are popping up at the moment � did you see our fab party wear email this week? That has given us all a few ideas.

We are also lucky that you can find such amazing deals on manicures and haircuts on thedailychic.com to keep us looking our very best for less. We’re on the look out for a dinner and drinks deal too for the whole Christmas party package.

I recently had the absolute pleasure of seeing the new collection from Rise. I like to think I have my eye on ball when it comes to a cute dress at a great price if I say so myself � but they must have slipped through my net. I’ve definitely been missing out, so please don’t either. Conveniently sold online at Risefashion.com, on the Dorothy Perkins site and in select Dorothy Perkins branches across the UK and Ireland.

I am a big fan of their on-trend embellished dresses and muted colours, and they are all pretty affordable at £35-£65. If that’s a bit too much to spend have a look at their clearance section, there is definitely something for everyone.

Will keep you updated on our quest for the perfect party dress and do get in touch on our forum/facebook/twitter if you find yours, we love to hear about a good find.
