Happy Holidays everyone! I have been trying to figure out what to wear for my holiday parties and I wanted to put in "Christmas-y touches" into these outfits just to be more festive and show my holiday spirit. From hints of sparkles, reds, and greens, I was able to come up with these three ideas! I hope you like them and find some inspiration for your own outfit!
Love you all and I hope that your holidays are full of fun and love!
Casual Metallics
This outfit is more of what I'm going to wear to a holiday party. I love being casual and comfortable, so I used a metallic ivory top that adds a small hint of fun and sparkle. In certain lights, I'll be GLOWING! :) It's been cold so booties and blazers are my best friends right now! And, I love wearing beanies in the Winter because I feel like it gives you a bit of edge to your style, so I'm wearing my light grey beret/beanie.

Dressy Embellishment
I bought these jacquard shorts just last week at Forever21 and my boyfriend was wondering why I was buying shorts in the Winter. I'm thinking, WHY NOT?! My reasoning is that we live in LA and it's never really really cold here and I love the shimmery finish and pretty floral embellishments on it! Who could resist?! With this outfit, I wanted it to be slightly more dressy and fun, so I played with a hue of green and I paired it with my shorts with it's perfect shimmery finish! My white leather blazer with the black lapels makes it slightly more edgy rather than super soft and feminine.

Flirty Red
Who could resist this Winter's most popular color? Deep red! I saw this dress on Asos during their Black Friday sales and knew that I had to have it! There's mesh and a bow design on the front with a fun girly full skater skirt. It didn't come in petite sizes so I had to take it to the tailor's for some alterations. The skirt was pretty long and hit me somewhere slightly below my knees. I don't want to look frumpy and shorter than I already am, so my tailor cut it so that it was a couple of inches above my knees. Paired with my sparkly strappy heels and you have the most holiday appropriate outfit EVER!
I know that it might be much colder everywhere else, so if you want to wear this, add some black tights and black pumps with a dressy blazer or coat over it. PERFECT!
