If you’re celebrating with your significant other or family members in a dressier setting (think hotel lounges, fancy restaurants, and posh bars), you can count on long silhouettes to make you look dressed up even sans effort. We love throwing on a maxi dress - in a lovely floral print or neutral hue - and pair it with nice kittle heels or mid-high slides. Finish the look with minimal makeup, a low bun, and a slouchy clutch bag for that posh yet comfortable look.
