On December 12, Wendy shared a peek at the trio's cute party looks on Instagram. The Potomac ladies were all smiles as they posed in front of a display of colorful balloons. Wendy donned a long sweater dress that featured a red-nose reindeer with a white beard. She paired her outfit with calf-high black heels and a quilted purse. As for the birthday girl, Candiace was holiday-ready in a green cat-themed sweater with "Meowy Christmas" splashed across the front, sparkly black shorts, black heels, and a string of colored Christmas lights around her neck. Also in the holiday spirit: RHOP pal Askale, who flaunted a black Christmas sweater, sleek black leggings, pointed-toe heels, and pink hoop earrings. 

All three women wore bright red lipstick and flaunted chic buns. (Candiace's bun was hidden behind a Santa hat headband, but she gave fans a peek at her hairstyle in the second slide of Wendy's Instagram post.) "Ugly Sweaters + High Bun," Wendy captioned her photo.

When she wasn't serving looks for the party's fancy 360-degree camera, Candiace could be found with a microphone in hand singing for her guests. The speakers played her new single, "Drive Back," (naturally) as well as other tunes. 

The former Miss United States went all out with her birthday decorations and even had napkins with her face on them. A towering white Christmas tree glowed in the background while guests danced.

"Last night, at [Candiace's] Ugly Christmas Sweater Birthday Party. I had such a blast!" Askale shared on Instagram following the festivities. As for "how the night ended," Askale shared a photo of Candiace hopping on her back for a piggyback ride in front of a gorgeous, twinkly tree.

Wendy added in the comments: "What a night!!"
