White And Golden

Tis the season for glam! It's perfect that we have a few more holiday parties scheduled because I've been looking for every excuse in the book to pull out this skirt again. Pleated midi skirts are probably my favourite kind of skirt...ever! They are so comfortable and look so done-up, and this season, the colour options are endless. Not to mention the high waist is perfect for every body type! I scored this one last year at Zara after the holidays and it has the perfect touch of glam for the season with it's the combination of gold, silver, and tinsel blue. But, there are so many others ways to hone in on the glam. Here are a few ways I love to do it:

Pink Floral Booties

We all knew I was obsessed with these booties from my 8 Floral Booties You Need post. So when they appeared on sale for black Friday, I knew I had to just do it. They are so out there and over the top and I love it. I mean, they're jacquard, have a flared pink lucite heel and are floral printed. And when paired with a vintage Chanel and black shearling coat... I mean, I feel like I'm ready for anything! I really can't tell if the looks I'm getting are mere admiration or confusion. But it's totally worth it. I think we all need those items that are 100% fun and make you feel fabulous. The boots definitely do it for me. But then again so does this shearling coat. It makes me feel ultimate glam! And scoring it on sale for $20 was probably a highlight of this month. But I have a confession to make... it's actually a girl's coat (as in children)! Someone left it in the sale section of H&M and I just tried it on without looking at the size and it worked! So I went with it. Who would know the difference?!

Are there any pieces you own that are totally over the top in the best way? And make you feel the best, too?

Black & Glam

Christmas came and went in a flash, and all buzz seems to be focused on the most sparkly, glittery and glam night of the year-- New Year's Eve. It's time to fancy up and put your sparkly foot forward regardless of what your plans are! This year we are staying in with friends and I'm looking forward to taking silly photos with props, dancing to some of the year's best hits, and popping some bubbly to cheers to the best memories of 2015. Even though we are staying in, it doesn't mean our New Year's Eve attire has to revolve around sweats and a pony tail (unless that is what you're feeling, and there's nothing wrong with that). I'm still taking advantage of the opportunity to dress up in unexpected pieces and rock the night away, even if that means doing so in my bestie's basement! 

Le Château asked me what my fashion resolution is for 2016, and it really is just to dress how I feel without any added pressure. If that means wearing beaded sequins and a faux fur stole one day, then so be it! But if it means sneakers and sweats that's okay too. For 2016 I want to let my outfits reflect me on any given day, regardless of trends, the dreaded FOMO, and other added influences. 

What is your fashion resolution for 2016? Could it be to wear more colour, or buy less trendy pieces? Fill me in! And I'd love to hear your New Year's Eve plans.
