Holiday Partying

It's that time of year again! Holiday parties litter our calendars and if you're anything like me deciding what to wear is a delightful battle.

I like to take inspiration from all the pretty, sparkly things around me. Below are some recommendations for this holiday party season. I focused on some of the upcoming events I have on my calendar... although I couldn't seem to find any 'Ugly Sweaters' on Ployvore... I'll just have to upload my own!

I'm having a serious love affair with red, black, and gold right now. I find myself trying to mix each color into my outfits every day. I think it makes a look festive without trying too hard. Even red nails can be a fun touch to bring some Christmas cheer into your day without committing to a bright top or pant. {I'm currently rockin' red nails and it makes me happy every time I see them}

Hopefully this helps inspire you while you're dressing for your upcoming holiday events!

Thanksgiving Day

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you had a lovely day full of food, thankful memories, and special moments. If you read my last blog post you caught a glimpse into how my Thanksgiving Day's typically go. This year followed true to form - with the exception of celebrating my birthday!! {Woo Woo - this should be the last of it ;)}

Chrissy, Katie, and I had some fun in Grandma's backyard showing off our outfits. Take a look below.

I'm off to bed early to brave the Black Friday shoppers at a few of my favorite stores. I hope you enjoy our outfits as much as we did.

Thanksgiving part 2 begins in T minus 29 hours.

Weekday Fashion Fun

Hello everyone!

This week I attended an AMAZING night out with my girlfriends! We went to the Ontario Mills’ second annual Celebrating Women Runway Event sponsored by Mercedes-Benz of Ontario. Allison, Tanya, and I received VIP tickets from work - dressed in our party outfits - and hit the mall! [Always a sunny side after a long day at the office. :)]

After walking into the VIP tent (The event planner in me will highlight some of my favorite pieces of decor soon enough) we went straight to the complimentary wine bar and made ourselves quite at home. Various models of Mercedes Benz’ adorned the entrance to the pre-party area while the DJ and stationary models guarded the runway entrance. The outdoor event was gorgeous!

After taking the mandatory lap to check out the scenery we found a nice little spot sandwiched between the industrial sized fan (99* in October WTH?!!) and the bar.

Once the time allotted for appetizers and drinks (compliments of Market Broiler) was complete we made our way to the open-air catwalk and found our seats. The event was open to the public (standing room only outside the velvet ropes) but those with VIP status found chairs with treats awaiting their arrival. Super deluxe caramel apples from RockyMountain Chocolate Factory and a massive coupon book (with special deals from stores within the Ontario Mills) kept our seats warm.

Please forgive my out-of-focused iPhone pictures :) The host, Giuliana Rancic, whom I ADORE was amazing! She is truly the epitome of style and grace. She is such a wonderful role model in a world of celebrities with such influence. (This write up is actually being written while ‘Giuliana and Bill’ is on in the background) The outfits were great! And all pieces you can purchase at the Ontario Mills. The show had a great vibe and the hours and hours of preparation were evident.

After the show was over Allison, Tanya, and I made our way back through the pre-party tent for a mini photo opp.

We had such a great time!
