Mixing my favorite black and white with a pop of jewel tones and a touch of flirty fringe, this look is perfect for Christmas parties, New Year Eve extravaganza and everything in between. The best part is this look is so budget friendly and those are my favorite words this time of year always.
A couple of weeks ago I hosted an event in Memphis for the Grand Opening of Kendra Scott Saddle Creek. As always, I was on the hunt for a new outfit for the event. I wanted to find something that was inexpensive, yet festive so I could re-wear the pieces for the holiday or maybe repeat the exact outfit all together! I immediately turned to H&M. I’ve always been a huge fan of their store, the pieces are great for seasonal items especially –The quality isn’t top notch, but for a last minute Christmas look, you cannot beat the price.
The event I hosted was during the day, so I went with a more casual look. I paired this top and skirt with my favorite bow loafers and it immediately brought this look from night to day.

‘Honey It’s Cold Outside’ Sweater 4 colors. I was obsessed with this sweater because it’s holiday sweater, not tacky sweater. It’s comfortable and it will be cute & casual with jeans or leather leggings. Tomorrow I’ll be sharing my break down on all holiday sweaters if you’re looking for more!
Fringe Skirt 2 colors, size down. I love fringe anytime of year, Christmas is no exception! The green version of this skirt is gorgeous!! This skirt will definitely be in my suitcase for our upcoming trip to NYC, it’s one of my favorites.
Black Over the Knee Boots. These are a closet staple. In the winter I love to pair these with almost every single outfit. These have a heel but they are still so comfortable and easy to walk in. If you don’t love a heel but want over the knee, check these out.
Bucket Bag 5 colors. This is one of my all time favorite bags. First, you cannot beat the price, it’s under $70 and the most amazing quality. I’ve had mine a few months and it still looks brand new. Also, it’s basically two purses in one (it comes with a removable pouch inside, I’ve used it for a clutch and a make up bag when traveling).

I also wanted to share this Instagram with you that I posted yesterday, in case you don’t have an IG or don’t use LiketkIt. I picked up this super, soft sweater from Anthropologie for our upcoming NYC trip. All of Anthro’s sale items are an extra 30% off right now with code ‘XTRA30’, making this sweater 70% off!! I love the shimmer detail on the collar, sleeves and hem.. it adds the perfect touch of sparkle but is appropriate for any age or occasion.
You’re halfway through the week, you can do it!! I hope you have a great day, babes!
