Holiday Dressing

I love everything about the holidays, the lights, the decorations, the shopping, the parties and most of all the holiday inspired outfits.  There’s nothing better than throwing on a party dress, your favorite heels and a swipe of red lipstick all in the name of the holidays.  Here are a few holiday inspired looks (almost all of them involving sequins) that I can’t wait to try out.


{Love this black sequin dress with a huge bow}

{Blair can do no wrong in my book! I love how she paired a high-waisted sequin skirt with gingham and pearls}

{Again, somehow she makes a snow day look good!  This would be a such a cute Christmas day outfit}

{Piles of pearls on top of sequins makes for an unexpected yet beautiful combo that would be great for the holidays}


{I am in love with this hair and makeup for the holidays! An orangey lip is a fun change from the typical red with a dash of sequins in the messy curly hair. Love.}

{Sometimes all you need is the perfect shoe}

Thanksgiving on the Farm

Old Navy sweater, Forever 21 skirt, Steve Madden booties, J.Crew bracelets, Michael Kors watch, J.Crew and Jewelry show rings.  Brother + pup.

Happy {belated} Thanksgiving! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend, I spent time at home with family and friends, which is always the perfect way to spend the holidays.  These were taken on Thanksgiving day (notice the baggy sweater and elastic waistband skirt) after a big lunch and decorating the Christmas tree.  It’s officially the holiday season and I couldn’t be more excited!

It was 70 degrees here yesterday! Not really the typical November weather but in East Tennessee you never know.  I took advantage by wearing a fall outfit minus a jacket and tights.  I have a feeling bare legs will be long gone soon so I will take full advantage while the temperatures will allow me.

Winter Wants

This beautiful J.Crew coat is the perfect way to keep warm this winter.  The camel color will go with just about everything and the gold detailing adds the perfect amount of glam to a basic winter coat. 

The teal faux fur snood is the easiest way to add just a pop of color to your winter wardrobe.  Colored fur is big this season and the easiest way to incorporate it into your daily outfits is with this finishing touch. 

I’m in love with this red toggle coat (from Old Navy!) not ideal for the coldest winter days but I can see it layered over a fur vest for a winter layered look or with any casual weekend outfit. 

These super cute shearling booties are what I envision for the perfect warm winter heel.  They give you plenty of height, lace up and have the warm shearling detail. 

I do love a good vest during the winter, they’re perfect for those days when it’s not too terribly cold out and also a great layering piece for when it’s absolutely freezing out! Layered under your big winter coat or on top of a few light layers you really can’t go wrong with a good puffer vest.

Hunter Boots.  I think these wellies are on every girl’s wish list, they’re cute, simple and come in every color you could ever want!  They’re great for the rain and even better for the snow making them a must for the winter.

Yesterday was the most perfect fall day in East Tennessee.  I’ve been dying to try out the maxi skirt thing so I made it work with with a summery maxi dress I purchased at the end of the season this year.  I think it paied very well with my new slouchy sweater to make for the perfect comfy fall outfit.
