Hey Hey! Happy Thursday!! How did it get to be Thursday already? Also where did the first part of December go? It feels like  Veteran’s Day was yesterday ha! The way things are going it’s going to be Christmas tomorrow. So today’s post is all about a fun, casual yet dressy holiday look. I’m not posting this to promote large family gatherings or parties. I’m posting this because no matter your plans, you deserve to dress up [if you want to] even if only the people you live with sees it. Or if you live alone, YOU get to see it and thats what matters! 

Cori Robinson of Dresscorilynn.com and @Dresscorilynn on IG shared something the other day that really stuck with me about getting dressed + ready for the day even if no one will see you. A lot of people, myself included think why get dressed + ready when no one is going to see me? It’s kinda a waste. But she turned it around and said, “But YOU get to see it! Don’t wait for the the special occasion because your life IS A SPECIAL OCCASION!”

If 2020 has taught me anything, it’s tomorrow isn’t promised + to be grateful for the big + little moments in my life. So wear the outfit! Put on make up + do your hair, even if its just for you because thats just as important as other people seeing it ya know? So even if you aren’t going anywhere this holiday season, wear the dress + heels or if sweat pants are more you thing go for it! Do what makes you the happiest because you deserve to be happy + enjoy your life with lots of smiles + memories even if you are creating memories by yourself, for yourself. 

Otay now on to the outfit ha! I love this blazer. You can wear it dressed up or down, over a tank top, dress, with jeans or dressier pants. Its more a winter white than a bright white and it will go with any color combination. I love the gold buttons and military style of the jacket. I feel like Goldilocks saying this, but its not too long and not to short, the length is just right ha! 

I of course have to add sparkles to pretty much everything ha so I paired it with this sequin black tank. I went with a classic, polished look but you can make it more festive and add red, green, gold, the list is endless really. 

Since I’m a jeans girl, I went with jeans for a more relaxed, causal look but black pants would look great as well. I was going to wear a pair of distressed denim to be honest but figured it would look more polished with non distressed denim. To be honest, don’t be surprised when I put a look together with this blazer + distressed denim ha!

The shoes + lip steal the show in my opinion. The shoes are super old, I’m aging myself here but they are from Charolette Russe and I bought them back  when I was in college, a million years ago. It was really funny trying to balance in them in the wet ground. The amount of times I nearly landed on my face is kinda embarrassing ha! 

I don’t wear lipstick often to be honest and never red, but I have to say I’m glad I have it because it really worked with this look. I like that its not too deep or pink. 

I added the Gabby bag because its black + gold and I just love it! I felt it made the look more causal than dressy too which is what I was going for. Plus I’m a bag lady at heart and will pretty much always be seen wearing on ha! 

I hope today’s post helps you find the joy + beauty in the big + little moments of your life and don’t forget that your life is a special occasion so have fun with it!!
