This year, I was inspired to dress festive by some of the pieces I found online. First, it was this sparkle top and then a velvet blazer. I fell in love with these pants from Frank & Eileen, which created this post on holiday outfit inspiration for Christmas and NYE.
*Frank & Eileen (gifted) surprised me with these Sligo jeans that arrived at my doorstep. Wearing a size 28, I always recommend sizing up with their jeans. These fit super well, and this style has a wax coating, making it appear dressier.
I paired it with this J.Crew sparkle top.
Christmas is just around the corner, and with quick shipping items, you can have these in time for the holidays. You can also grab your New Year’s Eve outfit and be ready for the end of 2023.
I first fell in love with this J. Crew blazer. It is now on sale for just over $100! It is super cute. I sized it up to a 6. The black looks more like navy if you pair items with it. You will want to take note of this color variance. After digging online, I found this adorable and affordable black velvet blazer from Mango. The price was right, and I purchased it! This is the velvet blazer I am wearing throughout this blog post. I sized up to a 6.

I always love having a little black dress in my closet to pull out when I need it. A classic black dress that fits well can be timeless. I bought a strapless velvet dress I loved last year and wore it for our rehearsal dinner and then again in Paris. It will be perfect to wear for a holiday dinner party or date night out during the festive season. The dress was sold out, but I found some similar options below. The bag is Polène.

I wore Merit makeup for this post, mainly mixed in with a few Sisley favorites. It is an affordable, clean beauty brand I love and wear often. For lipstick, I wore Sangria by Merit.
