Duel Dots

dress (Talbots c/o 30% OFF), clutch (Talbots c/o 30% off), heels (J.Crew see similar HERE), belt (Gap, old, how fun is THIS BIG BOW and Dainty Bow), coat (Talbots c/o on SALE), rings (Shine on Vine, Lexington), lip (Sephora, Always Red), nails (Jamberry c/o)

Fun, flirty, lady-like---this dotted number (ON SALE) hits the mark on all three.  Love the idea of duel dotting it with this matching Clutch--no doubt it will get some major mileage this holiday season (case in point see HERE).  I've got a little holiday soiree tomorrow night and while it's a more casual all girl affair, I definitely intend to put this lovely to good use this Christmas---would make a perfect frock for an evening wedding, too!  

Couple of housekeeping tidbits--make sure to check out the sidebar to the right (above instagram pics) for a little stocking stuffer inspo---some super fun ideas that would make for great stuffers and/or little holiday treats.  Also, just in case you missed last night's evening post---you can check out the PLAID HERE.  Alright gang, here's to hoping your Thursday is better looking than ours here in the Bluegrass---rainy and C O L D.  Make it a good one!

Get Glitzed

So after snagging these Sequin Leggings today in prep for upcoming holiday parties, I figured I'd (temporarily) stray from the gift guides to bring us gals a little sparkly inspo for the inevitable soirees we'll be attending.  I think the key with sparkle is to more or less tone down EVERYTHING else---for instance, to my girlfriend's (all girl) annual holiday party I will sport the Leggings with a cozy Knit and either ballet flats or I may be so bold as to toss on These.  But I am so very smitten with THIS LOVELY under a leather jacket or blazer---so great for NYE, too!  This Tee is another versatile piece I've had for ages and still love (see HERE).  Alright gang, feel free to scope out the sparkle below.  Hope y'all have a relaxing evening--make it a good one!
