One of my favorite things to do is help accessorize and dress my friends. Finding the perfect jewels for an outfit, or helping someone decide how to do their hair and makeup, just makes me so happy! I know… I'm a total girly cornball but I can't help it. I've always wanted a life size barbie doll ;)

Sooo I figured it was time I introduce y'all to my mini-me and the girl who's gone from stealing my clothes to simply making me dress her in them! HA…

My little sister, Samantha! You may recognize her from a couple of my instagram photos!

Over Thanksgiving weekend she was invited to attend her good friend's Cotillion.

It's a pretty big deal in Baltimore. I'm talking ball gown and elbow high white gloves. (To say I was jealous is an understatement. I am obsessed with any event that requires black tie… let alone WHITE TIE?!) Samantha picked out the dress (looks pretty similar to something I once wore huh? hehe) and I helped her with the jewels, shoes, hair, etc. Again, life size barbie.

Badgley Mischka Dress via Rent The Runway // BaubleBar Necklace (on sale for $36!) // BaubleBar Earrings // Vince Camuto Heels, old (similar, similar) // Lipstick: Revlon Color Stay Ultimate Suede in "trendsetter" // Eyeshadow: Naked2 Palette // Bronzer: Bare Minerals in "Warmth"

I was so excited to snap some photos of her because a) she's a stunner and b) how festive is this look?!

You could easily recreate this look for Christmas Eve/Day. Red dress, nude heels, sparkles, DONE. Also, if you are in need of a dress for a big event don't forget about Rent The Runway! If you're in the Georgetown area you can simply walk in to rent a dress - amazing!

Looks just like the emoji right?! And of course Kelty had to tell his Boo how pretty she looked!

Love Always,
