With Thanksgiving over and December in 2 days, we have officially entered the holiday season and with that comes the calendar full of festivities. Some of these come with a dress code or maybe you are like me and my hubby and are always looking for an excuse the dress up. Either way, this week we’re talking about holiday style and how to find pieces you will get mileage out of the rest of the year.
We can all agree that black is universally appropriate for any occasion – except maybe Marti Gras. So here we opted for a classic black blazer but kept it fresh with black denim. If you have a formal occasion you can always swap in a fitted suit pant (always flat front!). I’m obsessed with pattern mixing so I seized the opportunity to do so with the details. The gold makes it festive and the patterns make it interesting.
