Dress: JLUXLABLE| Shoes: Steve Madden

Merry Christmas!! So excited to be starting new traditions this holiday season with my family. One including an annual formal dinner on Christmas Eve. For our first annual Christmas Eve dinner we gathered at my grandparents suburban residence. On the menu: Root Vegetable Gratin, Maple Roasted Carrot Salad, Skillet-Roasted Lemon Chicken, and Apple Pie Bars 😋 The decor matched the food, simply fabulous. For the special occasion we were instructed to come dressed in formal attire so I sprung for this JLuxLable Dress that I found for $29 over the summer. JLuxLable is an Instagram boutique that typically has inexpensive party attire. Check them out here.

Taking a serious risk and mixing stripes with leopard print and I love it! I had my eye on this JCrew dress since the summer and scored it on Black Friday on sale with an extra 40% off! Glad I waited…I can pair this dress with a shirt underneath for colder months and just wear it sleeveless in warmer weather. I’ve been loving Nars Cruella as my go to red lip but I came across my old faithful, Ruby Woo just in time for the holidays.

It is becoming increasingly difficult to blog in these colder months so bare with me! I froze my tootsies off for these optics 😉

Thanksgiving weekend was definitely good to me. Thursday was different but I made it through! Friday and Saturday I spent in Philadelphia with my family taking advantage of tax free clothing and Black Friday Weekend super sales. I found a few items that I’ll be sharing soon! This faux leather dress I purchased about a week ago and I was so sick that it was 30% off on Friday. Anyway, the dress is gorge and probably one of my better Zara finds. I wish my boots were grey but these black old faithfuls worked well for me today.

These faux leather overalls have been sitting in my closet for over a year now and I can count on one hand the amount of times I’ve worn them. Dinner with my family was the perfect time to break them back out. To keep things casual, I paired my overalls with a grunge graphic tee and cutout booties. These overalls are amazing because they can be dressed up or down. I’ve worn these with both heels and sneakers and love both looks. The versatility makes the overalls a staple in my closet. Although these particular overalls are sold out, black denim in a similar style will still get the job done making this look #DateNightApproved

Also, I don’t know if you’ve heard but Nasty Gal has curated vintage designer items available now on their website…it’s pretty life changing…check it out here

I fell in love with this burgundy moto jacket because it matches the Gucci Blooms bag I’ve been obsessing over. I figured if I bought the jacket, the bag would come next…anyway I love the idea of graphic tees and distressed denim as an everyday look but this statement jacket takes it up a few notches. I do wish my boots were black, I have my eye on a pair of black Chelsea boots but for now these will do.

I love the message of the Lokai bracelet. I purchased around this time last year for myself and a friend. The bracelet is made with water from Mount Everest and sand from the Dead Sea, these are the highest and lowest points on earth. The bracelet serves as reminder to stay humble in the highs of life and to stay hopeful in the lows, I wear it everyday.

img_0391img_0392img_0340img_0337img_0315img_0251img_0233img_0246img_0283img_0289Casual Sunday’s call for simple denim on denim looks. Denim on denim is definitely a trend that has been updated and has made its way back around within the past 2-3 years or so. I am wearing a BDG Chambray Button Down that I purchased from Urban Outfitters (Denim Chambray) along with a Zara denim skirt (29.90!), and Nordstrom BP booties. My bag is the Louis Vuitton Favorite PM in the classic Monogram Canvas and I am obsessed! I am also wearing a brooch that belongs to my mother but wishing it were this Chanel brooch! Even still, I felt that the brooch definitely added something extra to this look! Share your thoughts about denim on denim and adding flare to your look with a simple brooch below!
