Hanukkah started on Wednesday and we're planning to celebrate the Festival of Lights with candle-lighting, dreidle-spinning, and latkes galore at a low-key party with friends. So for this installment of The Weekender, we've put together a Hanukkah getup, a sophisticated look for the holiday.

Style Tips:

- Dress: The blue hue of this flattering vintage-inspired dress is a subtle nod to the holiday without looking overly forced. Plus it's from one of our favorite recent arrivals, All Saints Spitalfields, a British chain that just opened this year on this side of the pond.

- Tights: Wearing black tights with lighter-colored dresses anchors the look and helps ground more delicate articles of clothing.

- Jacket: The waterfall cut was big in sweaters for years, but we love it on otherwise structured pices like this suede jacket.
