Oh my goodness, during this crazy time of year I am always thankful for some attainable, budget friendly holiday outfit inspiration. So I'm thrilled to be linking up with these lovely ladies for another installment of Bloggers Who Budget, featuring holiday styles!
Sharing My Sole | The Style Letters | Let It Be Beautiful | Here & Now | Pearls & Twirls | Stylin in St. Louis | Living in Color | The Pumpkin Spot
The holiday look that I am bringing to the table was actually styled by Shelby of Shell B Cheri, a stylist out of D.C. who came to play in my closet one evening last month. She not only helped me see my wardrobe in a new light, but gave me some great ideas for particular pieces that I was having trouble with on my own.
For example, this backless Zara frock was easy to style in the heat of the Summer, but I was sad to see it hanging so lonely in my closet during these cold Fall/Winter months.
But Shelby encouraged me to pair the very Summery dress with a sequin top for a totally festive look. Stay tuned for more of our styling session creations coming soon!

That is so adorable!! I love it and I never would have though to do that with a backless dress.
ReplyDeleteCute look! The color of that dress is great! So chic for holiday parties and such, but the color brings a different element. I like that. :)

What a cute pairing...I simply love this tee–it's so sparkly and fun!
ReplyDeleteI normally don't like shirts under tank tops or dresses, but this is cute! I think it's because the dress almost looks like a jumper. The polka dots and mint color just go perfectly together, especially with your red hair!
ReplyDeleteLove this - you look SO gorgeous lady!

I always say how cool it would be to get a pair of new eyes to look into my closet and see what they come up with. It's awesome you actually got to do it! You look so cute. And anything "on a budget" this time of year is welcome!

This is stunning, the perfect outfit. I really want silver shoes at the moment and the red soles are amazing. Mint and polka dots are a genius combination. Outstanding

Love your layered look! I need to work on being more creative with my layers :)
ReplyDeleteLove this look, so girly and fun -- and isn't Shelby talented, so great at thinking of combos you wouldn't have thought of!
ReplyDeleteI think this look is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness this is probably one of my favorite outfits of yours, ever! I'm all about stretching summer dresses as far as they can go (it doubles your wardrobe)! The sequins totally add a festive element to this, but the "jumper" look makes it totally sweet. LOVE it. Can't wait to see the other looks you ladies styled!
