Dressing for the holidays.
When I think of holiday parties I just think GLAM. Especially now that I’m, you know, doing that adulting thing. I still love me some ugly Christmas sweaters but if I get a chance to dress up, I’m going all out. It doesn’t happen often so I might as well have fun with it, right?
I headed to Burlington with my friend to pick out the ultimate holiday outfit. I knew I wanted to wear a dress because again, I don’t get to wear them often. I tried on a few different styles but this one took the cake…and was only $29.99! I loved the embellishments, the champagne color, all of it. I just love all of it! I decided to go with a monochromatic look because I didn’t want anything to be too bold where it stood out and took away from the softness and elegance of the dress. These shoes were the perfect addition and were only $24.99. And a girl always needs a pair of glittery shoes, am I right or am I right?
I wanted to keep my jewelry simple as well since the embellishments were so busy. I found this wrap bracelet ($7.99) that pulled some of the blush tone out of the dress as well as the fabulous cocktail ring ($5.99). I struggled to find a purse that fit into my color palette, but found this wallet ($14.99) and decided it was perfect. And I can use it as a wallet or a clutch when I’m done! Win! And if you’ve been doing the math, this entire outfit cost me less than $100!
After selecting my outfit, I picked up a few gifts for the kids. They had a huge selection of Frozen merchandise, which is about half of what my daughter’s gifts are this year. And I picked up a remote control monster truck for my son because he’s all about monster trucks right now. I can’t wait to give it to him!
I love being a member of the Burlington Style Squad and finding the best deals. But you don’t have to be a member to do that! Check out your local Burlington or shop online for some fabulous holiday wear and gifts for the whole family!
