The holidays are right around the corner and I am so excited! Even though it’s a busy time, I look forward to the holiday parties and dinners. Holiday beauty looks are my favorite. A smoky eye, a Christmas red lip, and some glitter and sparkle is worth looking forward to. This year I’m feeling inspired to do something a little different like trying some unexpected holiday beauty looks.
I’m crossing my fingers that fall weather will hit LA soon. The weather the past few mornings have gotten my hopes up. The skies have been cloudy and there’s been a light, crisp breeze. I went on a walk with Ginger and needed to wear long sleeves! Long sleeves, I say! That’s progress, let me tell ya! Oh, fall, I’m so ready for you!
I’m dreaming of wearing cozy knits, and turtlenecks galore! I love this light blue color on this relaxed turtleneck sweater {30% off with code LAYERUP}. It’s such a great piece to wear when the weather gets chilly and there are so many pretty color options, although the light blue is standing out to me. Wouldn’t it be perfect paired with these silver lace up flats? They’re currently 25% off with code SQUADGOALS. Which, P.S., who started #squadgoals? Was that a Taylor Swift thing? I feel like I should know this!
There are some great sales going on right now that I thought I’d share below:
When it comes to building the perfect wardrobe, it wouldn’t be complete without the perfect blouse. Blouses are items that I can never seem to have too many of. They’re the perfect top for work, play, and even a date night. The perfect blouse will work so hard for your wardrobe and can transition from office to happy hour, errands to meetings, time at home to time away. Because of their versatility, a blouse is an ideal item to pack for a trip. I’ve loved the silhouette of this blouse from maurices. The v-neck is super flattering and, because of the 3/4 length sleeves, it can be worn on a warmer day, or layered with a cardigan on a colder day.
While I was picking up a black blouse {because those are seriously a must in your wardrobe!}, I couldn’t help but add in this floral blouse too. It’s a color combo that goes well with fall colors, don’t you think? I’d highly recommend adding in a perfect blouse to your own wardrobe and there are so many options. Would you get a solid, or a print like arrows, diamonds, plaid or dots?
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you all have a great weekend! I’ll be over here catching up on sleep but I also have some fun things planned like a football game and celebrating one of my best friend’s birthdays!
