Hope you guys are
enjoying the Christmas season! I’ve been having a great time with dressing up
to go out, so I figured I’d share some ideas from outfits I’ve been posting on
Instagram.

| S and I at my cousin's wedding! |
S and I went to my
cousin’s wedding a few weeks ago. It was unseasonably warm, so we were able to
enjoy hanging outside during the reception. I wore this long sleeve black dress
and received nonstop compliments on it. Little black dresses are always a
classy staple, and the long-sleeve version is a perfect dress for winter. My
friend gave it to me as a present, so I wasn’t able to find a link to the
actual dress, but I found some similar ones that you might enjoy checking out:

This weekend, we had a
night with several holiday parties to visit. I was struggling to find a shirt
that was both comfy and casual but also nice enough for going out in the
evening. My sis-in-law remembered that she had borrowed this shirt from me and
suggested I wear it.
And I remembered how
much I love it! Plus I think that pastels, even though they’re known for
spring, look especially nice in winter as a gentle pop of color against all the
black and brown that people wear, especially in the New England winter. I think
I got this shirt at a thrift store, so I don’t have a direct link. But I found
some well-reviewed pastel pink blouses that don’t break the bank:

So, even though this
season is all about giving, maybe you can splurge on yourself a bit and find
something nice to wear for all of those holiday parties! Good luck with
shopping!
