December is a Month of Festivities!



Hello, welcome to my blog and thanks for stopping by

December is such a fun month of the year!
It speeds by in a whirlwind of
festive events, parties and get togethers,
 for everyone to enjoy during the holiday season
You know what this means-

  there are lots of opportunities to get dressed up
👗💎🎀💃👡
 Our fanciest, bling-iest clothes can come out of the closet
Not that they can't come out at 
any time of the year, but December is great
for wearing them all together!  
Do you like the prospect of
 getting dressed up for special occasions?
I sure do!

For this week's outfit, I chose a comfortable but festive outfit
  to celebrate my December 1st birthday!
The satin jacket makes this outfit special
 It is a cropped style in the currently trending
 wine or burgundy color,
 perfect for wearing with high waisted pants and skirts
 It could also be worn over a dress
 A jacket like this is such a versatile separate,
 plus the color is practically a neutral
Pieces like this are nice for special occasions,
 because the fabric dresses up the outfit
 and the jacket can be worn in so many different ways 
An easy way to go if you have different 
events with some of the same guests in attendance
I am wearing the jacket today with a chiffon
 wine, magenta and purple 
geometric print blouse underneath,
 and tailored black straight leg trousers
 



Adding a little more bright color and bling
 with my magenta bow motif chain strap bag



For jewelry I've chosen some shiny gold tone pieces
 A collar necklace of small curved rectangles
 (chiclets) all the way around,
bar earrings and a bar hinged bracelet


Black pointed toe low wedge heel tassel loafers
 to finish the look


Here's a picture of Roger and I
Roger is matching one of his whimsical
 Dr. Seuss ties to my jacket
He has collected a lot of really fun ties over the years,
 and always manages to come up with one
 that will coordinate with my outfit!



Here is a close up of the tie-
it is a conversation piece, for sure!


Hope everyone is having a lovely December
Enjoy a piece of my confetti 
birthday cake!

Happy birthday from one December girl to another! That short jacket is so luxurious-looking, and the styling here is fantastic. I don't have any fancy events to attend this month so my Christmas-looking outfits are going to be much more on the casual side. But if I owned that jacket, I'd look for an excuse to wear it for sure.
