Tis the Season -- Holiday Dress Guide Edition

Tis the season friends for family gatherings, work functions an abundance of Holiday parties! I thought it would be fun to blog about what trends are around this season in holiday wear starting off with dresses. I of course have always loved the sparkle vibes! The very first New Years Eve I spent with my love, I remember clear as day, I wore a Loft Sparkle top and black mini skirt from J. Crew. Below is a fun candid shot of our evening.




Anyways, enough reminiscing! Lets get right into whats trending:


One of the strong trends that is coming out this season is the use of metallics. I love all the gold and  silver looks I have been seeing. Here are a few options you may want to try out:


This ASTR drses is so simple and pretty with the draping around the midsection! Notice here how Nordstrom's is showing this dress with lace up booties! It gives this look that extra bit of sexy edge. You can purchase it here!

How about wowing your date for the evening in this gold number?!


I adore this look. It is so flashy and in the right setting, it would be the perfect dress to paint the town in! You can purchase it here!

Of course lace is another big trend this holiday season. I adore lace looks and what I have been viewing this season doesn't disappoint.


This party dress could go from a work function to a night on the town with your sweetie in no time. How cute is this dress from the Loft! I love the nude underlay and the detailing of the lace. This would be such a versatile dress! You can purchase it here!


This scalloped lace dress from The Loft is so gorgeous. Of course, we see a lot of red and green this time of year and why not embrace it! This is a classic piece you could rock for seasons to come. You can purchase it here!

I love to still see peplum still trending! I especially love it in this classy winter green color!


This ASOS dress would be perfect for a Christmas party! I especially love how it looks styled with the simple t-strap sandal. You can purchase this here!

How about this ASOS double layer crop top dress? This would be wonderful for any Holiday party or a NYE party.



I love this look! I want this to make its way into my closet like now!! You can purchase this here!

Another trend this time of year is sequins as I noted above. This year there are so many pretty dresses to incorporate that extra sparkle into your wardrobe!


I love the gold shimmer qualities in this amazing Ark & Co. dress! This would look amazing for any function that may come up this season! You can purchase this here!

Obviously red, green and gold are huge trends to embrace this season. For instance, look at this amazing Tadoshi Shoji dress. 


The look of the the illusion neck and hemline is so major! This dress is just stunning. If you want to go the extra mile this season, think about this look. You can purchase it here!

I hope this Holiday dress guide has helped you all begin to think about what fashions you want to rock this season. Leave me a comment and let me know what you love and don't love!

Until next time fashion friends,

Wedding Wednesday- Best Dresses to Wear to a Summer Wedding

Wedding season is upon us and if your like me, you have just started going to all the weddings of the season! My inspiration for this post came from  Elle Magazine . They did an amazing article on the best looks to wear to a wedding and it got me thinking about wanting to give my readers some tips and highlight a few looks for these special days. Weddings are a lot of fun to go to and you always want to look your best for when you are seeing your friends and family! Here are a few rules to get you started: 1) No cream or white-- Please do not be that one person all the others are giving dirty looks to because you wore an all white look to a wedding. I think having cream or white come through in your look in some way is totally great, especially in these summer months. However, just don't have your entire dress be white. I have seen this done before and its not well received. 2) Pay attention to what the invitation says the attire will be-- If the invitation says blac...

Trendy Festival Wear - 2016

Hello there to my favorite readers! Festival season is now officially upon us. One thing I noticed this year is that the fashion retailers are advertising specifically to the festival goer, making it easier than ever to find your perfect look. It doesn't seem like it has changed too much since last year, besides there is even more of a 70's vibe mixed with the 90's in these looks. However, we still have the obvious staples -- the  headbands, the crop tops and the ripped jeans. Lets dive right into some of the best festival looks this season and how they can transition into your summer wardrobe and beyond! Grecian style shoes . I mean, perfection. I mean, say no more! These shorts ,some denim, a big hat and a choker! Your comfy and trendy! Georgy Georg bright colored dress . Pompom Playsuit . Need it! PS, is playsuit the new word for romper!? Braided headband!? I want it and Im not going to a festival! Obsessed with this v...

Dressing Diaries- ASOS Sheath Dress

It's about that time to start another reoccurring series entitled Dressing Diaries . I thought it would be fun to give you a peak into how I style myself and how some of my favorite looks come together. Start of dressing process:  Very late at night, the day before an event (nothing like a fair amount of procrastination), I always ask my sweet  fiancĂ©   to take a picture of my outfit. By the time I get to the pictures, I have narrowed down the look to two or three different choices. PS- this is a really good tip if you haven't tried it before.  I know that sounds funny, but in todays world where there are so many pictures taken its important for you to be able to visualize the final look so you aren't left disappointed. It is also good to be able to see what shoes look best and what accessories complete the ensemble.  Completion of dressing process : I went with nude lace up heels (you can find something similar to purchase here ) and opted...
