WHAT TO WEAR TO A HOLIDAY PARTY

A go to for me when picking out a Holiday Party outfit is Chciwish! From Christmas teas to family events to Holiday dinners and everything in between Chicwish has it all.

You’ll be festive, cute and on trend yet not break the bank.

These outfits came together so easily. I got compliments on them all and I felt confident and festive in them which was exactly what I was going for.

Friday I shared with you the trip to Chicago with my mama. I wore two of these Chicwish outfits to the Holiday Teas and they were perfect!

This first one is what I wore to a Christmas tea.

Candy canes anyone? Oh yes with the shimmer mesh skirt adorned with the peppermint cuteness giving it just a hint of sparkle. Add in a giant Bow on this pale pink knit top and you’ve got the perfect Holiday look.

Loved the candy canes on the tulle so much that I got it in black too. The deep red top gives classy vibes while still being trendy and fun too.

I even added a bow belt and bow on my hair and love what these accessories added.

Speaking of accessories, I’m crazy about a beret hat! Especially this Embroidered Wool One in pink. Parisian flare all day long. Just imagine throwing a pretty cream coat like This one over the ensemble like mine from Chicwish. You’re seeing pattern here with the Bowknot Knit Sweater Top with the slightly flared sleeves because I was adamant about having one in every color, lol.

Let’s add major sparkle but in a subtle way with the Sequin Maxi Skirt and Cardigan with what a I call sparkle bow buttons.

And just think, you can wear any three of the Bowknot Knit Sweater tops with this maxi skirt making for lots of cute holiday options.

Something I love about Chciwish is they often restock or still have much loved pieces year after year so many of their pieces in my previous posts are still able to be ordered. Items are often offered in multiple colors. And their new arrivals are released often and are always a treat. I love to blog about and style Chicwish. For some great reviews on my beloved Chicwish, check out these posts: HERE, HERE, HERE (my favorites) and HERE.

Which Holiday look is your favorite?

Happy Festive week my Loves!

FRIDAY FAVORITES LET'S GET LIT

Three more sleeps until Christmas. I think it’s just so cute when people say that I’m sure we will use it with the twins when they get older and their excitement mounts to Christmas Day! Just sharing some festive love on this last holiday Friday favorites! Was beyond bummed when we did not get to go into Chicago for some festive fun due to tons of yucky rain. I was so looking forward to all the outside events and special pop-ups. I guess it’ll have to be next year. But excited to show you this holiday love!

1. Let’s Get Lit

Here it is the photo that graced the front of our Christmas card. Mr. Nine chose our outfits this year and again they were supposed to be for a party that got canceled but we were able to wear them to a holiday dinner. Doesn’t his bulb placement crack you up?

Here’s the back of the card. I don’t know about you other empty nesters, but it’s so hard b/c I still want to include my family, but it was impossible to get a group family photo this year, so I still included little snippets of them.

AND THE TWINS CUTENESS

The lab results are in…they are indeed Identical Twins..a 30% chance even when in separate sacs.

Remember I got these Pink Onesies for the gender reveal, had 2 blue just in case.

2. Hood Brunch

I called this the hood brunch because it was my friends in the neighborhood coming over for a festive morning last Friday. We had a ball. Already looking forward to the next get together and two of the ladies are planning an around the world party which will be so much fun when the weather gets warmer!

And my first attempt at a Brunch Breakfast Board.

3. Lights with Mom

Then that night, my mom and I attended the Christmas light viewing at our Wellfield Botanical Gardens. It was such a lovely night, not bitter cold and the lights were gorgeous.

BELIEVING IN BOSTON PROPER

Raise your hand if you’ve had clothing brands that you’ve loved for years! Me Me!!! I remember getting my first Boston Proper catalog as a young adult and going crazy! Everything was so sophisticated and beautiful! Fast forward a few decades and they are stronger than ever and talk about proud to collaborate with them!

The perfect time to partner was during the festive holiday season with these beautiful outfits to shimmer and shine in!

I shared these looks on Instagram last week and asked you which one was your favorite and it was almost a three-way tie with a small percentage higher for the dress.

The minute I saw this red lace hi-low number I was sold. It’s one of the most unusual and beautiful tops I’ve ever seen, and it packs such a punch with a beautiful red! I paired it with Boston Proper’s Faux Leather Leggings and festive it is!

Top HERE // Pants HERE // Pumps HERE

Many of you loved this top simply for the gold and the sequins. It is lined, which Is always good when something has sequins, not overly heavy and a nice flattering surplice front.

OK, let’s talk about the Dress. And just wait until you see it in the back! Gorgeous and such a beautiful wine shade. The little intricate lacing overlay has small shimmery sequins on it. They are small and real light just to give it the perfect shimmer! The sheath fit with the high mock neck is so flattering.

LOVE EVERYTHING Boston Proper has to offer, and I guarantee you’ll find something amazing too!!
