Hi there! I hope you're doing okay...I know this has been an incredibly sad and stressful time for most of us. So many people I know are being infected with the new COVID-19 variant and this pandemic life just feels like it's never going to end sometimes. Derek and I held our breath as we took tests last week to see if we would be able to spend the holidays with our families and were relieved when our test results came back negative but I know that wasn't the situation for many. If you weren't able to spend the holidays with your family I'm thinking about you and sending lots of love. Thursday we'll be holding our breath again as we take yet another test to see if we'll be spending NYE with a few friends. In the meantime, I'm hanging out at home and avoiding going anywhere that isn't necessary.
Whether or not I would be spending Christmas with my family, I had decided that I would definitely be wearing this shimmery midi dress. I ended up picking it up last minute when I decided I wanted to get dressed up instead of sticking to the usual sweater and jean combos I've been wearing lately. Also, I'm not going to lie, I may have been inspired by Taylor Swift's grammy performance outfit from earlier this year. I used to get dressed up for Christmas alllll the time in my early 20s (this outfit was probably my favorite) so it felt good to get back to that and find an excuse to wear a sparkly dress. I styled this dress with my favorite Intentionally Blank flats (similar here) and a black tote bag. It would also be cute with a pair of metallic gold booties or even a suede knee high boot too. Do you usually get dressed up for the holidays? And what are you wearing for NYE? I bought a midi black corset dress that I'm excited to ring in the new year with!
