Holiday Gifts 2007: Dazzle for less

By Kavita Varma-White December 12, 2007 02:46 PM

Looking for a glitzy, but not expensive New Year’s Eve dress? Try Ross Dress for Less. I was surprised to find a line of holiday dresses for $19-$25 on the rack this week at the Delray Beach store. Some were - or appeared to be -- the very dresses I looked at over the weekend at Dillard’s junior department for $80 and up.

OK, not everybody can fit or wear a junior style (including me, usually). But much to my holiday delight, a large-sized gold lame dress fit fine.

Now I just have to find a New Year’s Eve party. Details, details.
