Even though I'll likely be in really hot hospital wear come the holidays this year, that doesn't mean my eyes haven't gravitated towards all things sparkly, shiny and holiday-esque. Mmmm sequins, velvet, bright red, silvery shimmery goodness.
For all of your cocktail parties, white elephant gift exchanges, NYE celebrations and more, I've compiled a set of pretty freaking fabulous holiday wear with every item less than $100. Happy shopping, all! Don a sequin or ten for me.

Holiday Fun: Sequin 'Splosion
Incoming! The holidays are upon us. Beyond the shopping frenzies, overindulgence and snowflakes we have sequins. Yes, sequins. For your holiday parties, dinners with friends or if you're feelin' a little sparkly, sequins are just too much fun to pass up.
I've seen many a lady sport a lighter tone sequin on top for day...but for evening I pulled together a set of all sorts of sparkly options. Skirts, jackets, dresses, tops - hooray! Pretty much any of these tops can be paired with a chic pencil skirt, skinny pants or black tights. As for the bottoms, I like a tucked in solid tank and tuxedo jacket or even a snuggly black sweater. Just don't pair sequin w/ sequin...save the head to toe disco ball ensemble for Halloween, 'kay?
How do you savor sequins?

Holiday Gear to Spread Chic Cheer
Hi all!
So, I started thinking about holiday parties, and then I naturally thought about shopping. Holiday gear is always so pretty, so shiny, so lovely, but I really only wear that shiz once or twice and then it sits in my closet, forever.
Therefore, instead of blowing $200 on an entire holiday outfit, I thought of utilizing some well-established pieces and just purchase a fun skirt to polish up a new holiday look!
