    As I type it, I am in disbelief that is it almost here…Thanksgiving. The kick off to the 6 week holiday season. I love the holidays and feel it is truly “the most wonderful time of the year” and am excited for all of the gatherings. We have some great content coming to you this season so stay tuned for more. If you have not decided what you are wearing for Thanksgiving…look no further.  I have created three elegant looks to help you look fabulous for your Thanksgiving soirĂ©es.

    Bodysuits are an excellent option when you want your shirt to look pretty and polished. Since Thanksgiving gatherings tend to be longer than a typical dinner or cocktail party, you do not have to worry about your blouse staying tucked in. This gorgeous floral printed bodysuit is perfect in the shimmering copper color.  I paired it with dark denim, a thick gold chain and suede pumps. This and other great bodysuit options are available at www.zara.com.

    Since velvet is a key trend this season in everything from clothing to footwear to accessories…I thought it was important to create a look that featured a unique velvet piece. These A.L.C Velvet Pants have a wide leg and are incredibly soft and comfortable…perfect for a large Thanksgiving meal. I like how this black top looks with this ochre color. Top available at www.zara.com, pants available at www.shopbop.com.

    If you are feeling the urge to dress up a bit, this beautiful A.L.C. floral printed dress is an excellent option. It is not overly dressy but feminine and flattering. Wear with tall suede boots and you are set! Available at www.intermixonline.com.

     

    Hope these looks give you some inspiration for your Thanksgiving ensembles!

    All That Glitters

    Long ago, I used to tell people to have a sparkling day.  It seemed more fun than a “great”, “good” or “nice” day.  I am not sure why or when I stopped wishing people a sparkling day but somewhere along the way, I stopped signing emails that way and sign off in a standard way. However, this spring, that is precisely what you will be doing from day to night…sparkling. Glitter is a major trend this season and not just in the traditional evening items…I have seen it in the fabric of leggings, dresses, sandals, water bottles, jewelry…it is EVERYWHERE. Think of glitter pieces like you would a print of pattern, use them sparingly…a touch here and there and never more than one piece in an ensemble.  

    I opted to style this glitter story in gold pieces for day wear but there are an abundance of sparkly items for evening….black, gunmetal and other fun colors but I feel the gold is the freshest version for this season.

    Glitter is also a key beauty trend this spring, in eyeshadows, lip gloss, nail polish and body dust.  Again, use sparingly, but there are pretty products that will make you shimmer and glow.

    Have a sparkling day!
