12 Days of Christmas: Elizabeth McKay

Are you looking for the perfect holiday dress? You'll love the dresses at Elizabeth McKay. The first time I saw this incredible collection, I knew that this brand would become a favorite in my wardrobe. The quality of the clothing is incredible with details like lace hems and real sewn functioning buttons on the cuffs of coats and jackets. Their latest prints for the holiday collection are adorable and would be elegant for any Christmas or New Year's Eve party. 


The Rye dress is a gorgeous silhouette that is easy to wear.  The boucle fabric adds a touch of elegance to the dress.  You'll be comfortable and will look fantastic all day long.  Here's the Elizabeth McKay Rye Dress.  Be sure to check out the swatch of this print on the website.  It's such a classic. 



The Belle de Jour is another easy to wear dress.  The cotton knit dress has just a touch of stretch and the substantial weight fabric is figure flattering.  I just wore this dress to see The Nutcracker this weekend and received so many compliments on it.  Everyone loved the ruffled bell sleeves and I loved it that I was wrinkle free all day!  Here's the Elizabeth McKay Belle de Jour in Navy.


The Elizabeth blouse is a must have for every wardrobe.  The shirt is available in multiple colors and prints in cotton sateen or silk twill.  I love to wear this versatile blouse with everything from jeans to black cigarette pants.  Change the cufflinks for a different look, too.  This is the Elizabeth McKay Elizabeth Blouse in Gold Chain.


The Scotland Dress is the top seller at Elizabeth McKay.  Available in 12 solid colors and prints, the Elizabeth dress is perfect for any occasion.  The ruffle neckline and wrap silhouette is so feminine.  Tie a bow in the belt or opt for a more formal look with the belt with two oversized gold buttons on it.  Two ways to wear one fantastic dress.  Here's the Elizabeth McKay Scotland Wrap Dress in Feather.  This print looks fantastic with opaque brown tights.

    I love wrap dresses and have a whole closet full of them! I have been dying to add an Elizabeth McKay to that collection.

    My favorite Scotland Wrap dress is the Feather one. I would love to wear it out to dinner one night while we are on our honeymoon.

    Wrap dresses are a wardrobe classic. I'd choose the navy (I have too much black!) and would wear it to work because it would be an easy transition from work to going out for drinks/dinner after work.
