Festive Christmas Look: Mini & Me

Don't allow the most magical week pass you by so quickly that you forget all about your Christmas attire! If you are stressing out because you haven't found your holiday look yet, this blog post will be of assistance to you!



It is, seriously, mind blowing how fast Christmas will be upon us. I actually prefer Christmas Eve to Christmas Day. There is something so peaceful about the little ones tucked in their beds and watching the lights dance on your tree as you wait for Santa to arrive. It truly is the most magical night of the year.


Seriously, guys, 5 DAYS AWAY!


You can have so much fun getting your sidekicks decked out for the season. The best part is that they are young, so it's okay to be a tad hokey with colors. That's how I came about falling head over heels for this adorable outfit. The Emerald dress not only compliments my daughter's fair skin perfectly, but it also has gold tinsel interwoven into the fabric. I love gold tinsel a million times better than an outfit doused in glitter.

Not as fun as it sounds...


We have plenty of "ham" over here in our household. If you need any, we have tons to spare.

Besides Christmas Eve, one of my favorite things about the season is selecting festive fashion pieces for all of the many holiday occasions. When the list of "to-do's" gets long and overwhelming, my solace is found in researching and shopping for clothes. I know, shocker right? Surprisingly, I was able to find my family's quite easily this year. It helps when you plan ahead!

This year I decided to go with a mid length, red Jacquard skirt paired with a delicate ivory satin blouse. In place of bare legs or nude tights, I decided to go with a more classic and timeless black.

When you are wearing such a timeless and classy outfit, you may feel tempted to just slide into a set of pearls and call it a day, but why settle when you can *POP* with a gorgeous statement piece?! That's why I chose these beautiful Slate Skyline Necklace that was sent to me from rocksbox.com.
I am literally obsessed with it.
