Christmas Eve

I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas!  This year I decided to come down to the Sunshine State with Will's family for Christmas and New Year's to feel out something different for once.  Of course, I will have my family Christmas when I get back, woohoo!  We found a nice church down here to attend for the Christmas Eve service, which was really lovely.  

For my outfit, I have been saving this adorable cream dress I got at Target for that night.  I fell in love with the shimmer and the pattern lay out for it.  I was very thankful that it was not that cold either! One of my favorite things to do for styling dresses for the colder weather is slipping on a pair of panty hose. I feel like it adds a bit of classiness to an outfit plus warmth to those legs of mine.  I took more of a wild turn with my shoes though.  These leopard booties from Payless I found a couple years ago just put the perfect offset to a classic Christmas ensemble.  I wanted a bit of a different flair and my own taste added on.  I think it is pretty apparent that I am obsessed with leopard print.  However, I think my favorite accessory were my Francesca's Collections Wrapping Bow earrings.  Of course, I also saved these for Christmas Eve.  I am super festive for holidays, especially Christmas, so I wanted to bring a little bit of that to my outfit.  I added a Vince Camuto bow bracelet that Will's sister got for me as a Christmas present last year.  And, man, did I fall in love with it!  Before walking out the door, I grabbed my go-to chevron midi rings, red lipstick, and my new Forever 21 modernistic handbag.   

Once again, Merry Christmas everyone (two days late), and I hope it was filled with joy, family, laughter, and great remembrance of the birth of Jesus Christ.
