NYE Inspiration

Two blog posts in one day? There isn’t some blogger rule against it, I hope! It’s been so busy around here with Christmas and all the festivities, but I’m catching up. I can’t believe another year is almost gone, and 2014 is RIGHT. AROUND. THE. CORNER! I’m feeling a little lucky this year that the hubs doesn’t have to be at a New Years fireworks show. I never really do anything spectacular on New Years Eve because of that, and now that we have no plans? I’m still not doing anything spectacular. But I’m totally OK with that. We’re spending a few days relaxing and recuperating at the beach house and I’ll be going pretty casual. But, I’ve got some great NYE inspiration, whether you dress down for a more casual look or opt for super glam style for a night on the town. I added a few photos from my Christmas Eve Style post because I loved this outfit so, so much and think it’d also be perfect for a dressy, fun NYE night.

Christmas Eve Style

Every Christmas Eve, we spend it with my hubs father’s side at his great nana and papa’s. This year there was definitely a huge hole with the loss of his papa early November. The night was great and we had a lot fun, but I’ve got to say… that man had huge personality. Though he was the only one missing, for me, it felt more like 10 people were missing. He is certainly missed and the loss of his presence is more than noticeable, but the evening was really a nice one. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas filled with love, family, friends, and blessings!

Blushing

I found this pretty and picked it up for myself while Christmas shopping… I was supposed to be shopping for everyone else *sigh*. Is it just me who buys herself early Christmas presents? I love this sweater and I think it just might be one of my new favorite pieces… I’m betting you’ll see this again because I just can’t help myself when it comes to pieces I can wear across my wardrobe, but I don’t have to tell you that!

sweater: Francesca’s
jeans: Paige {sale! select size}
boots: Rampage {deeply discounted!}
necklace: old {similar, loving this and this}
bag: JustFab

I’m expecting to be rather busy with Christmas just 2 days away! So, I probably won’t have another post up until the end of the week. May you and yours have a very Merry Christmas!

Summer in December

It seems almost ridiculous to post this when the weather is back under 65, but this was a stereotypical southern California day… nearly 80, the day felt much like summer, and there was nothing to do but embrace it. Going from low 50s to nearly 80 (and then back to raining and under 50 just two days later) was… shocking especially when all I want to do is wear cute sweaters, jeans or leggings, and boots with all my cute boot socks, but when in Rome… 

I’ve said it a million times, but I love pieces that get wear across my wardrobe and this luxe sweatshirt (seen here) is no exception.

sweatshirt: Windsor {sold out similar, loving this}
denim shorts: F21 {similar}
shoes: DSW {similar}
