Two key pieces for a festive and casual Holiday look:
Plaid + Boots
Here are some options that won’t make you look like a lumberjack!
To follow up my $25 and Under gift guide, I’ve upped the price range a bit and these are a few of my finds! By far the best thing I have come across…the Chambong! How did I not know about this?! I must have one!!
Also recall one of my earlier posts, Travel in Style, where I featured my Calpak luggage, which I love. Now they have matching packing cubes! And they are under $50!

Still looking for a gift for your friend/coworker/hostess? At under $25 any of these would be great!
I love the Sugarfina box design, so chic to bring as a hostess gift! The Voluspa candle in Suede Blanc is one of my favorite scents, it is definitely a staple in my home. And who doesn’t want a gold lunch bag?! Yep that is what that is up there and it is definitely on my list!
Obviously I’m partial to one of these since I already have it! It’s a little smaller than an average coffee cup, but I absolutely love it! Pack it up with a bag of your favorite coffee and some gourmet chocolates!
Looking for a different twist to your holiday outfit than the traditional red? Try this deep burgundy, if not in a dress, then on your lips and nails! The Essie nail polish is one of my absolute favorite colors!
Recently I decided to try styling and a few of my friends stepped in for my project! I took them out of their comfort zone of jeans and a cute top….and they were actually very willing participants! All of these looks could be contenders for the festive party season that is upon us!
