Red Hot
There’s something about a red mini dress that just feels so right this time of year. Thankfully I’ve got sorority formals and Christmas socials left and right these next two weeks so I know I’ll get to put this one to use. This plunging neckline + sequins make for a killer duo. I popped on red heels and a cute crossbody bag to complete the outfit.
Winter White
When I tell you I had to have this white feather jumpsuit I mean had to have it! This strapless beauty is lined with feathers along the entire bodice for a show-stopping piece. I love an all-white moment in the winter but felt I needed a pop of holiday red somewhere. For that reason, I popped on the same red heels as before and added a cute crossbody. This would be fabulous for a night out in the city!
Pretty In Pearls
Oh my gosh, there are few combos I’ve worn this year that I love as much as this one right here. This mesh bodysuit is lined entirely with pearls. I’ve never seen a piece so unique! The plunging neckline is incredibly flattering and it has a snap closure to make using the bathroom 10x easier.
I tucked this into a pair of black straight-leg leather pants. These are my go-to for any holiday event as they dress up any outfit in a heartbeat. As for shoes, I’m wearing the most amazing clear heels. These are close-toed with a sequin lace up around the ankle. I’m obsessed.
Midnight Kiss
New Year’s Eve is also right around the corner and a sequin romper is a perfect piece for the special evening. This one has a loose neckline. Leave it as is for a plunging moment or throw on a lace bralette for a layered look. This ties along the waist too to accentuate your figure. I popped those clear heels back on and man do they look perfect with this.
Celebrating With The Girls
There are all kinds of fun activities with the girls coming up. Whether it be dinner and drinks or a Secret Santa exchange, use your next gathering as an excuse to get all dressed up. I’m starting off in a black fitted sweater. This one has a cool cutout along the neckline to spice things up.
I’ve tucked this into a plaid wool skirt and added sheer tights for an extra layer since *sadly* it is getting very chilly here. Of course, no outfit of mine is complete without some type of heel. These fitted boots have the chunkiest platform heels that give you tons of lift and make your legs look miles long! Love.

Monochrome Moment
A monochrome moment is a never-fail, especially when it’s done with maroon velvet. I grabbed this ruche-front bodysuit and flare pants from Fashion Nova and they look fantastic together. Of course, since these are sold separately you could also mix and match them.
Regardless, velvet is so chic for the holiday time and looks incredibly festive. Because these pants run a little long, I paired them with a heeled sock bootie. Add a cute purse to match!

Festive Yet Casual
l know, not every day has an occasion but it’s still fun to be festive even while keeping things casual. These leather-like pants have been my favorite thing recently. They come in a few colors but the maroon is perfect for this time of year. I recommend sizing up if you are in-between sizes; however, I am wearing an XS.
These are so easy to dress up or down—I’m throwing on a white chunky sweater and sneakers to match for an everyday look. Don’t forget a crossbody to complete the outfit.

Loving On Leggings
Velvet leggings from Spanx are my most worn bottoms this time of year. They instantly elevate a leggings outfit and are so soft. I have them in the classic black however they come in a few other colors if you’re looking to add a pop of color into your wardrobe.
I always wear these with something super chunky and oversized up top. This gray sweater is perfect for layering and keeps you super warm. Add chunky black boots and don’t forget a pair of matching crew socks peeking out of the top to really pull the look together.

Christmas Tree Cutting
It’s about that time of year that we go and cut down our Christmas tree! We still get a real one and it’s always a treat to go and pick it out. I tend to stick with a basic “base outfit” and add a coat for a fun pop of color. These straight-leg jeans have been my go-to all season long. They work well with sneakers but can also be dressed up with a chunky boot.
Of course, I had to add a puffer jacket for an added layer. This one is a maroon velvet that’s so soft. I know I’ll get tons of use out of it this holiday season. Size up if you want to layer thicker knits underneath.

Movie Night In
Feeling like cozying up on the couch for a Christmas movie marathon?! This pajama onesie is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen and is so soft. Obviously, these are shorts but they are perfect for laying around the house bundled up underneath a blanket. I’m wearing my current favorite slippers too to keep my feet warm.
