HOLIDAY PIECES + OUTFIT IDEAS

Black Friday is safely behind us and it's time for well deserved rest and relaxation. Come Monday the countdown to Christmas and New Year is officially on and it's time to start picking out outfits for all the dinners, cocktail parties, present swaps and plane rides coming my way in the next 5 weeks. SO little time, SO much to wear.

Below are some of the items I consider the quintessential holiday pieces. You'll notice I have a particular thing for burgundy and velvet this season. :)) I have also included some ideas for outfit pairings. Leave me a comment and let me know what pieces you are loving right now and how you are planning to wear them.
