Thanks so much for all the sweet comments on yesterday's post. A few of you must be psychic when you mentioned I should sell the peter pan collars! I was planning on testing out a few more collars in hopes of adding them to my shop this new year!

So, I had a completely different look planned but changed my mind last minute. I felt it was time to sport the blue tights. It's funny how they seemed so much trickier to wear than the red tights, but maybe that's because red is my favorite color.

This is the final look in my holiday series, which I really hope everyone has enjoyed. I won't be posting too much over the next week. My big sis will be in town and I haven't seen her in ages. But you can expect a special 7th wedding anniversary post on the 27th!

I wish you all a very very Happy Holiday and a fantastically Merry Christmas!

XOXO

Holiday Look #5: Sunny Sunday

Photo Credits: Cole. Thanks, darling!


Vintage Persian Lamb Jacket: gift from aunt
Black Cashmere Boat-neck Sweater: Talbots
Silver Jacquard Skirt: Behnaz Sarafpour for Target
Black OTK Socks: American Apparel
Black Platform Heels: F21
Black Sunglasses: Oliver Peoples, Zooey
Black Patent Clutch: from A Cup Full of Sunshine giveaway
Velvet Bow Pin: DIY
Red Lipstick, Fake Lashes and Nail Polish: Revlon

Knowing how watery and squinty my eyes get in the sun, I decided to grab my Oliver Peoples Zooey glasses for the shoot. Thank goodness I did because I tried a few shots without them and the results were quite tragic. The one good thing to come out of so much sun was how wonderfully warm it was. I was barely cold.

In other news, I'm so terribly sad to hear that Brittnay Murphy died yesterday at the young age of 32. As you all know, Clueless is one of my favorite movies and I always adored her character. Plus, I was just watched her in another of my fave movies, Love and Other Disasters, a few days ago. So sad. RIP Brittany.

P.S. One look left in my holiday series.

Holiday Look #4: Saddle Up Pug

Photo Credits: Cole. Thanks, darling!


Tweed Coat: F21
Black Silk Double Bow: in shop
Cream Tights: Target
Vintage Saddle Shoes: from mom's closet
Vintage Black Coach Purse: thrifted
Red Lipstick: Revlon, Really Red
Wellington's Old Plaid Coat: Foggy Mountain Dog Coats

Well, it seems that Wellington has upstaged me! I can't say that I mind, since he's so dapper in his old plaid coat. It's been ages since Wellie was in one of my shoots and it was quite a blast. My favorite photo is the one where I'm laughing and it looks like Wellie's laughing too!! He is and always will be my muse.

I had intended on showing you my whole outfit, but it was so very cold (notice my incredibly red hands) that I just couldn't bring myself to remove my coat. Hope you don't mind and that you'll still enjoy the fun that Wellie and I had together.

P.S. Next week's holiday looks will both be party dresses!

P.P.S. Ten days till my 7th wedding anniversary! Eeeek!

Holiday Look #3: Ahoy Holidays

Photo Credits: Cole. Thanks, darling!


Navy Duffle Coat: Brooks Brothers Boys
Navy Stripe Top: J.Crew
Navy Pleated Shorts: F21
White Oxford: Luella for Target
Navy Bow Tie: belt from F21 shorts
White Opaque Tights: Target
Navy Platform Sandals: Seychelles
Red Satin Headband: DIY
Red Lipstick: Revlon, Really Red

Is a nautical look very holiday-ish? Probably not, but I love it. Feeling creative, I took the belt from the shorts and used it as a bow tie. I'm quite happy with how it looks. It feels weird to wear tights with sandals and I used to feel it was a big no-no, but the look is growing on me. Does anyone else have any weird quirks or no-no's?

I'm probably not going to be wearing my hair naturally wavy/curly much this winter. It's so dry outside that my hair really doesn't want to curl anywhere but the front. Bah! I guess it only works well in the humid summer. Any curly bloggers out there that have any advice for the winter?

P.S. Did anyone else have a hard time commenting on blogs with embedded comments last night? It made catching up on posts a bit tricky for me. I changed my comments to a pop up window to help alleviate the problem.
