Oh La La velvet. I’ve
been searching for a velvet piece to add to my close without much success until I saw this on my Just Fab monthly boutique. It took less than two minutes to click and purchase
this lush, holiday perfect, bold red, slouchy sweater. I have learned to size down in their clothing
line so I went with an XS. When it
arrived and I rushed to put it on, even though it was freezing from being
outside all day in the mailbox. As I slipped it on , I felt instant relief wash over me because it was PERFECT! It’s so
soft on the outside and the inside is lined so it slips onto the body just right. I wore it for our first family holiday outing
,to watch the production of Little Women the Musical. I paired it up with my basic black skinny
pants, black booties and my bold H & B necklace, also styled here. Oh, and I let my hair go all natural with
just a good blow drying and hairspray.
The girls also got all dressed up in their newly purchased
holiday dresses but weren’t too keen on taking pictures in the brisk, like -15
C, weather. I took them shopping last
week to the Bay, during their Bay Day’s sale, and Halie picked out a lacy velvet, midnight blue dress and Anya went with a bold red one (sold out but similar here and here). Recently someone told me that I was going to
be broke with two girls but I do love shopping with them. Hahaha.
We enjoyed a special lunch at a local crepe café that has GF
crepes and then we went to the show.
What a truly magical way to kick off the holiday season. If you missed my post on Wednesday and do the
Elf on the Shelf gig with your little ones make sure you check it out for some
ideas and a couple of pintables here.
Wishing you all a fabulous weekend and thanks for swinging
by.
