Fringe Benefits

Sweater: Le Chateau // Skirt: Splurge - shop here // Heels: Aldo

Winter white is one of my favourite looks especially when paired with a really dark lip. This fringe skirt just made it easier to take winter white dressing into the holidays. You can go casual-chic with an off shoulder sweater or dress it way up with a cream cami and a blinged out choker. 

Warning: this skirt will make you swing your hips and take really extravagant steps.

Holiday Staples

The holidays, a time where your weekends fill up with meet and greets and your bellies fill up with yummy treats! Although the holidays are fun, there is some added stress there with deciding what to wear to all of the events, this is where I come in..here are the 5 holiday staples that will surely take you through the season.

1. Fun Skirt
A black skirt is functional and all but why not add some fun detail that will make you stand out?! This faux-leather number will make for a great alternative to the usual go-to.

2. The Dress
Having a dress handy is a no-brainer..and a dress that resembles a candy cane? Well that's just brilliant! This fit and flare silhouette is flattering for all figures!

3. Statement Necklace
The easiest way to dress up that little black dress is with some jewels. So why not look like Elizabeth Taylor, dazzle yourself in jewels..and get married 8 times while you're at it.

4. Sweater
Living in Canada, it is cold.. very cold. This 100% cotton sweater by Halifax local brand NIXE is so comfy and so warm that it has become my go-to sweater and I'll def be wearing it while building gingerbread houses..demolishing other people's houses..and eating the rest of the people's houses.   

5. Cuff
I enjoy stacking bracelets as much as the next girl, but with the sequins and sparkles that tend to come with the festive season, a classic simple cuff is an essential to get you from day to night. I love this dark silver double cuff because though it is simple and unique, it fills up my wrist without jingling alongside the bells.

Crop Top Christmas?

   

With midriff being the new cleavage, questions have risen. How much is too much? And where is it appropriate? 

Tons of celebs have put their upper two abs on display on the red carpet. I wonder if they save money on spray tans by just getting half their tummy tanned..hmm..but can this trend be transitioned to real life events and soirees? Perhaps even the upcoming company holiday party?

Stocking Stuffers - Under $10

Although finding diamonds in your stocking may be a little more "glam", there is nothing wrong with a tad less extravagant (but just as fun) alternative to wake up to on Christmas Day. Here are some items (all $10 or less) that are sure to fit nicely in your stocking!
