FEELING FESTIVE

Beverly Hills, CA

Okay, I know it’s a little late to talk holiday party dresses but this season seemed quicker than ever. Who's with me? That being said, there seems to be a reason to get dressed up every night from now until January so you're going to need options. 

This mint mini dress from Chicwish is an easy favorite. Not overtly festive like my emerald dress from last week, this one was incredibly easy to style with simple bracelets and gold earrings. The puff sleeves are so adorable and classic. Oh and the best part? It works well as a New Years dress, too! Win, win.

Cheers to Holiday Party Season!

A new season is on the horizon! That means there are lots of cool winter trends to look forward to. While I love cozy cardigans and layers, my favorite thing about this time of year is getting dressed up for holiday parties.

I wore this silk emerald dress for my company party last weekend—my first holiday event! It combined a few of this season's must-try trends: retro vibes, 80's-style glamour, and pretty emeralds. I have always been a fan of emerald, so look forward to more of this pretty hue from me down the line. Oh, and don't you love the puffy sleeves? 

Reformation has lots of other similar styles to choose from, too. Trust me, it will be hard to pick just one!

THE SPARKLY CELEBRATION

IDEAL FOR: THE COCKTAIL PARTY

Have an after-work holiday party to swing by (or 4)? Sometimes it's fun to go glam with a statement piece. This year, I went with a ruched sequin skirt and partnered it with a dainty black tank and pink/gold accents. It's a flirty little combo that works for all levels of dressy (in case you're doing that holiday party hop!)  I've had this body-con sparkler on my want list for a while and I love this darker burgundy mini dress as well. They look stunning and are perfect to wear to everything this time of year-- so much more fun than your basic LBD!

Oh and can you believe my hair is actually styled up? It was all the work of the talented Aaron Barry! He kept my makeup fresh and light and twisted my hair up into a braid and then worked his magic and tousled it into a loose bun. If you have any specific questions, feel free to ask him on his site or instagram! Ah to have a hair/makeup artist everyday... that would be the life. 

Hope you're all enjoying the endless season of parties!
