Merry Christmas Y’all!

I mean it’s so close…just three days away….eeeeek!

I love this time of the year because I enjoy pulling out my Christmas best styles.

But, I will be the first to admit that its so hard to shop for myself this time of the year. I need to focus on what’s more important and I try really hard to do that.

I am going to share with you some simple tips to amp up your Christmas style/fashion spending little to no money at all.

I love to stand out when it comes to my fashion, so don’t panic when you see my out of the box look.  I will give you another fashion forward look for you to enjoy.

Graphic Tees

These are a great way to add style to your holidays fashion.

Mix up any of the following to dress it up and make a fun new holiday outfit.

  • Your favorite chunky necklace (maybe with some bling)
  • Earrings
  • Bracelet
  • Sequin skirt
  • Black pants
  • Printed pants
  • Sequin shrug
  • Classic black blazer

What would make a graphic tee much more festive is if you could find a Christmas themed shirt and pair it with the above items on the list.

Don’t forget you can make this casual as well.

Wear Black

It’s classic and can be very slimming, and this is much needed with all the holiday goodies that we or I eat. 

Add a fun clutch, necklace, heels blazer, jacket or maybe even something with a little bit of sequins.

Sequins or Prints

This can be in your shoes, jackets, cardigans, purses, clutches, belts or even your pants, skirts or dresses. This can add a lot of glamour to your holiday style.

How about Lace?

Lets go through our list of what we might have in our closet to get our holiday styles started off right.

  • Black
  • Jewelry
  • Heels
  • Lace
  • Prints
  • Colors

Now, the key to style is confidence and appearance. Add a little makeup, maybe even a pop of color on your eyes and lips, paint your nails and of course have fun styling your holiday hair.

All of this can really add so much to what you might think is a simple style.

Theses are just a few ideas you can do for your last minute parties or Christmas gatherings.

Merry Christmas and happy styling!

      Good Morning Maria,
      That looks like it might be two separate pieces a tank and a long maxi skirt. I found one from JC Penney, you can pair with a good quality tank as well a chunky crystal / beaded necklace to give your look a dressier feel.

      I found this as well. But remember, you can find a maxi skirt and or dress and add your own style to it by dressing it up with the right heel, clutch, jewelry etc.. dressing up your outer appearance will help too. Paint your nails, fix your hair, and a bold pop of color in your eyes or lips will dress up your style completely.
