A simple outfit amped up with lots of holiday sparkle and a rich red lip… perfection.

If there's one thing I default to when dressing for holiday parties it's red lips and big moment necklaces. There are so many different holiday events going on right now that it can be hard to pull something together. I love holiday dresses but that just isn't in my budget to grab a new one every time I get an invite. So I remix my wardrobe (yes, I know y'all are probably tired of these pants), turn to a not so classic blazer, add in my favorite lip color and pile on the sparkle. It's a quick and easy way to give life to a chic, all-black ensemble. Bonus points because it's the most comfortable thing ever… I'd wear this to dinner and drinks with the girls to celebrate the most important thing of the season: the people in your life!

PS. Guess who introduced me to this lip color? My Mimi! Grandma knows best ;)

Love Always,
