Off the Shoulder Sweater

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.

12 Days of Blogmas: Easy NYE Look

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!}

12 Days of Blogmas: Red Lace Dress

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.

12 Days of Blogmas: Ugly Christmas Sweater

Every year one of my close friends hosts an Ugly Christmas Sweater party and every year I wait until the last minute to pick out my outfit. It always seems like I’m rushing around the day before the party {or even worse the day of} and rushing to pick out a sweater.

Happy Monday y’all! Louisville is officially in winter mode and as much as I hate my fingers and toes turning into ice blocks {#circulationproblems}, it’s actually kind of pretty to look at.  Between being sick and being stressed about the holidays, I did manage to shoot some fun new content for the blog which is a win-win in my book.
