There's no time like the holiday season to snag a few new party dresses that you can also continue using throughout the rest of the year. And since I know we’re all knee-deep in gift buying, travel planning, restaurant going, or simply living, I figured I would see what I could find us for under $100 right now. Luckily, Nordstrom, Zara, and H&M delivered as always, and my roundup is as chic as if it had no budget at all—maybe even chicer.
From minis to maxis, LBDs to statement-making red stunners, below, you’ll find the best affordable dresses for every type of occasion and style. Whether you’re looking for something casual to wear with your favorite boots or something to impress your office crush at the upcoming holiday party, today I’ve got you covered for it all. Simply start scrolling to get started.

H&M
Can't go wrong.
How to shine but still keep it neutral.

Just a pretty dress.
You'll never tire of this neckline.
