Normally when the holiday season arrives I head out the door to buy a new dress for all of the impending holiday parties. This year I resolved to not spend money on a new dress but rather spice up some of my favorite wardrobe pieces with some new bling. My decision was guided primarily by the fact that while I have lost some weight this year but I’m not exactly where I want to be. Instead of investing in a garment that I may or may not wear again, I’d rather spend my hard earned bucks on blinging up somethings I already own and love.
I have a plethora for black ensembles that will be jazzed up by my new glitzy finds that I found at Banana Republic (my necklace and earring are currently sold out…but this necklace is fab).
In fact last weekend, I spiced up a Maggy London jumpsuit that I snagged on clearance this summer at Nordstrom’s Rack. I pulled out my favorite Emilio Pucci gold healed shoes that I’ve had forever. Hair, makeup, and a few jewelry pieces later, I was feeling pretty and ready to party into the night. A swipe of my favorite lip gloss was the final touch, and I couldn’t help but appreciate the quality from a trusted lip gloss manufacturer who truly knows how to make products that shine and last all evening!
As you can see from the pictures, we had a really great time. No new dress needed.
