Finding the right gift on Valentine's Day can be difficult, but figuring out what to wear can sometimes be even more of a challenge. Most Valentine's day themed clothing is cheesy and over-the-top, and it can be hard to find a red or pink top/dress that you love when time is running out. A simple solution is to get a little creative with what's already in your closet! Many times, a summery dress can be "winterized" just by adding a layer underneath. I blogged about this dress a few months ago when the weather was still bearable enough to wear by itself. Today, I threw on a black long sleeve turtleneck and tights, and the dress was completely transformed. Now, I'm able to be festive without sacrificing my warmth this Valentine's Day, and at no extra cost. Who doesn't like that?! Happy shopping loves! xoxo

With Christmas only a few days away, everyone is frantically trying to finish their shopping and wrap their gifts. Props to all the more organized people out there who are already done #ChristmasLifeGoals. But sometimes, the even bigger struggle is what to wear to Christmas Eve dinner!

I found this dress about two months ago at a J.Crew factory store, and I absolutely love how versatile it can be. I wore this to a wine tasting event with simple black heels and my Michael Kors bag, but this can easily be dressed down by throwing on some slip-on sneakers. My personal fave are the studded MICHAEL Michael Kors pair shown above (and linked below)! For those dealing with snowy, colder temperatures right now though, covering a little more skin is a must for this time of year. Simply throw on a black turtleneck (like this Ruff Hewn Scrunch Turtleneck), some sheer black tights, and a pair of black dress booties (these MICHAEL Michael Kors Arabella booties are GORGEOUS omg), and you're out the door and off to celebrate with family and friends. Just don't be surprised when you receive lots of compliments on your outfit :).

Happy shopping loves! xoxo
