I Scoured the Sales to Find the Chicest and Coolest Picks for Holiday Parties This Year
Listen, I'm all about perfecting a party look. It's actually one of my favorite categories to dress for. However, there's no denying that the items we buy for events—no matter how special or even timeless they may be—aren't really the ones we're getting the most frequent use out of. This is why I try, whenever possible, to buy my party pieces on sale. Whether it's an LBD, a statement clutch, high heels, or a fun coat, these are the pieces I look for when the markdowns start rolling in. Luckily, they have just in time for events to ramp up, so of course, I scoured the sales on all our favorite sites to bring you (and me) the ultimate party-ready edit exclusively comprised of marked-down finds. After all, whether it's by Mango or Manolo, it never hurts to save, so simply keep scrolling to shop all my picks.
Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
