Hi, I'm Neyssa

Finding holiday dresses that photograph beautifully, are comfy, and make our girls feel as magical as the season can be a challenge. Over the years, I’ve come to rely on a few trusted brands. These are brands that my daughters not only love to wear but look adorable in for everything. These holiday dresses are great for anything from Santa photos to family gatherings. Here’s a list of our favorite holiday dresses that have passed the “twirl test” and will surely make your holidays even more special.

Alice and Ames – Holiday Dresses with the Perfect Twirl Factor

When it comes to holiday dresses, Alice and Ames is my top choice year-round. These dresses are designed for kids’ comfort, with no tags and a fit that allows them to move freely. My girls live in these dresses daily, so it’s a no-brainer for our holiday photos, too! They also offer prints and colors that look stunning in photos and make festive holiday options. And if your girls love to twirl, these dresses will steal their hearts.

Little Stocking Co – Cozy Styles with Accessories

Little Stocking Co has captured my heart with their soft, adorable dresses – plus, they carry coordinating bows, tights, and knee-high socks, which is a huge bonus when putting together a complete holiday look. My daughter is especially in love with her Minnie Mouse dress from Little Stocking Co, and I’ve been impressed with how well they photograph. These dresses bring out their personalities and give us a cozy vibe perfect for holiday moments and photos with Santa.

Little Sleepies – Soft, Versatile, and Perfect for Holiday Photos

Known for their pajamas, Little Sleepies doesn’t just stop at cozy sleepwear. Their “play” line of dresses is ideal for holiday gatherings, Santa photos, or any special moment this season. My girls wore their Little Sleepies holiday dresses last year to meet Santa, and they still reach for them! The fabric is soft and stretchy, and the twirl factor adds a touch of magic – plus, you know they’ll be happy to wear them long after the holiday season.

Remie Girl’s pieces always feel special, with floral prints that photograph so well and colors that add a soft elegance to any holiday event. And of course, the twirl factor is a must, which Remi Girl absolutely delivers on! For families who love supporting small shops, Remie Girl is a top pick.
