style + beauty blog in the dc metro area
I’ve been stocking up on winter pieces, like this pink lace up sweater from Romwe, and finally it’s paying off. It’s been super chilly this week and today we’re supposed to get the first snow of the new year. While I’m dreading being cold, the first snow of the season always feels kind of magical.
It’s the first Wednesday in January which means it’s How I Style It! This month, Becky, Della, Tif and I showed up ready to share our winter blues. Everyone knows my absolute love for anything cobalt so to change things up, I wore blue jeans, an under $20 {!!!} off the shoulder top and my blue mirrored Ray Bans. {New year, new me!}

Can I be super honest? I find getting dressed for winter after the holidays very depressing. There’s so many layers to remember to put on, there’s coats, there’s my poor circulation, you look like a bloated version of the Michelin Tire man all the time — it’s all bad. I know some people’s personal style thrives this time of year, but for me I typically find that all I want is to stay in bed until springtime. Luckily I aded this off the shoulder sweater to my closet and its made getting dressed more fun.

Today’s look marks the end of the Blogmas series and is geared towards helping you get ready for New Year’s Eve. My big plans for New Year’s Eve include a bottle of Trader Joe’s pre-mixed Bellini, my couch and actively avoiding every couple I know, but I put together an outfit that’s super easy for you to recreate with pieces that I promise are already in your closet. {Because no one should HAVE to run out and buy an entire new outfit after spending he equivalent of a month’s rent on gifts for others, am I right? Although, if you want a new outfit — go get that new outfit, girl!}

I’m wrapping up the Blogmas series this week with this look and tomorrow’s post which will be all about creating a New Year’s Eve look from the items already in your closet! I wore this gorgeous red lace overlay dress for Christmas Eve. We typically all get dressed up and go out to a fancy dinner as a family. It’s a fun tradition and we always try to remember to snap a family photo with everyone that’s in town.
