Blogmas #13: Fashion Friday

Hey my friends!

So it’s officially 12 days until Christmas. Do you have your outfit(s) already picked out? Are you keeping it casual, are you glamming it up or are you somewhere in between?

I personally fit in the in between category. I don’t want to be super casual because it is the holidays and I will be taking pics. On the other hand, I don’t want to be super glamorous because I am spending time at my family’s house. I don’t want to look like I’m in a family photoshoot ad.

I am so into the faux fur and/or teddy bear sweaters. I think the perfect Christmas outfit for those of us that live in the cold climate, is a white faux fur turtleneck sweater and faux leather leggings.

Pair this outfit with a red lip and you’re good to go 💋

If you’re not the type to wear faux leather leggings, then you can’t go wrong with a good ole sweater dress. I paired this dress with a black ankle boot with block heels for comfort. If this red dress doesn’t scream Christmas, I don’t know what else does.

These are just two outfit ideas that I think will look fabulous for Christmas dinner. But whatever you choose to wear, make a statement.

Until tomorrow, night night 💋

Blogmas #10: Top 5 Holiday Makeup sets

When I think about Christmas and New Year’s Eve, I immediately think about glitter and rich reds. Yes, I’m talking about makeup. Unless you’re like me, you don’t wear red lips on an almost daily basis.

This is the perfect time to purchase those vibrant makeup sets as a gift or for yourself. I’ve come across 5 sets that are a must have.

Too Faced Let it Snow Girl

Need I say anything about this gift set? If this doesn’t scream holidays, I don’t know what else does.

Too Faced Christmas Party Essentials

Now who doesn’t love a great gold glitter eyeshadow? This set comes with the Better than Sex mascara, which is on my top 5 list of great mascaras.

Too Faced Gingerbread Extra Spicy Eye Shadow Palette

This eyeshadow palette is a great stocking stuffer. Too Faced eyeshadows are very pigmente, as you can see by the rich and vibrant colors. This palette screams holidays.

Clinique Holiday Cheer

This has to be one of the best holiday makeup sets for the lips. The snowflake box actually breaks up into three section. Each section has a different lip set: nude, pink and plum.

Estee Lauder Lauder 31 Beauty Essentials

This is ultimate holiday set. Not only do you get full size lipstick, mascara and lip gloss…you also get a full size makeup remover, night repair creams and a train case.

The best part about these sets are the affordability. It’s always a great idea to purchase makeup, particularly in a set during the holiday season. The makeup is usually cheaper and you get more discounts. Just a little tip from me to you 😉.

Grooming kit

I think this is a necessary gift. Just as we women love to pamper ourselves, so do men and they deserve it. This kit I chose is available at Target and is less than $20.

Amazon Fire TV Stick

What man doesn’t love to just chill and watch tv? What’s better than to get them the fire stick so they can stream some of their favorite shows?

Jewelry

Now you know I could not create a gift guide without some N A Waterman jewelry…

A great gift you can get that man in your life is a genuine stone bracelet from N A Waterman “Eye Catching Jewelry”. I bet some of you didn’t know we sold men jewelry. Well we do and the bracelets are all less than $30.
