all i want for christmas is you...

 It's Friday pretties...and I have the next 10 days off and I couldn't be happier!  And even though it's been in the upper 70s the past few days...ugh I hate you texas...H and I are still pretending that it's a normal few days before xmas and we're rockin' our red plaid and cream cable knits!  Honestly I rarely ever wear true red because it doesn't really look that good on me, but this poncho is just so fun and perfect for xmas time that I had to give it it's moment!  Plus it looks so adorbs with the cream bow beanie that looks so adorbs with Henri's cream cable knit sweater!  Twinsies for the win!!

velvet dreams...

Oh Monday...back again so soon?  I swear the weekends get shorter and shorter every week, but I'm all smiles this Monday because I only have a 4 day work week and my family will be here by Friday, so all is good today!!  And because xmas is going to be here before you know it I'm trying to wear all my Christmasy things before next Monday, like this maroon velvet boyfriend tee.  

Can I just say that I'm so happy that velvet made an appearance this season?  It turns something like a simple oversized tee into something a little bit fancy and because I need a little more fancy in my life I paired it with a vintage black sequin beanie and a sparkly statement necklace because go big or go home right?  And if that wasn't enough I layered it with a polka dot ruffle slip and some flares because why not...it is the season for giving and this outfit is giving major fashionista vibes!  What are you wearing to sparkle this week???

black leather and navy sequins...



Anyone else feeling a little sparkly today??  Well if you read my post on StyleLushTV then you've already seen this too cute outfit from Apricot Lane, but I love it so much that I wanted to share it again!  One of the things I noticed about people in SA is that they love to match.  I'm talking like the exact little swirl pattern that is in their top needs to match the necklace they're wearing, which has to match the earrings that they have, which has to match the purse that they're carrying for the night...it's exhausting.  And one of the biggest colors that people seem to have a problem with is navy.  Like they literally want everything navy, from head to toe...like hi I'm a blueberry...delish!

And since I'm not a huge fan of looking like Violet from Willy Wonka, pairing this amazing navy sequin dress with a black faux leather jacket seemed like the obviously choice.  Black and navy are so classic together and you know I love a good mix of edgy and glam in one.  And if you are planning on stopping by the "Give Sparkle" Holiday Party at AL tomorrow night, then this dress is so perfect to rock while stuffing your face with cupcakes and champs!! 

Also, do you like how I made it extra windy the day I took these pics to give it that rockstar flair.  Yep I'm just good like that.

project GFB...



Happy December pretties!!  It's the most wonderful month of the year!  Why you ask...well duh, it's my bday month!!  #TeamSagittarius 
But this month is also amazing for another reason!  I'm so excited to announce the I've been chosen to be one of the Guest Fashion Bloggers for StyleLushTV and my first guest post is up and ready to be loved HERE!!!  This is one of the outfits I featured in that post and I'm kinda obsessed with it.  Now if you know me in real life then you know I love a good "theme" outfit...and what better time of the year to be holiday-ish than December?  The best part about this look is that I'm legit wearing red and green, like find me rudolph and get me a sleigh because it's xmas colors, but by wearing olive and maroon it's more, that's kind of a cool color combo to rock, and I can totes get away with it without looking like one of Santa's elves.  Plus no one is really paying any attention to my outfit because this beanie is just the best thing ever...which you already know because I rocked it in my post last week, and you will most likely be seeing much more of it because like I said...best.thing.ever.
