Time to Shine – Some Sparkle for the Holiday Season

01

“Wish…Each time I meet someone, I will silently wish them happiness, joy, and laughter” ~ Deepak Chopra

What a great quote by Deepak Chopra!  So many times without even realizing it we immediately judge people, instead consciously wish them happiness, joy and laughter!

One of the things I love most about the holiday season is the sparkle!  There are twinkly lights, tinsel and glitter everywhere!  People dress in bright festive colors and when it comes to decorations, more is definitely better! 

I found these fabulous Steve Madden red boots the other day and called my favorite boutique, Rebecca & Co. in Greensboro, NC, to see what fun outfit they could come up with to go with them!  They definitely didn’t disappoint!  These cropped black pants are so cute with everything, but combined with the grey embroidered, beaded blouse (with just a touch of red to match the boots) they are fabulous!  I styled my boots several ways so check back over the next week to see other ways to wear them!  I have always loved red boots and have several pairs, as you can see here and here.  They are a fun way to add a pop to any outfit!

I tried, but couldn’t find this exact top to link!  I’ve included some other party tops that I really like in the link above so I hope you find one that you love!

Today is the last day of my 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway.  I’ll have a full list of the winners on the blog tomorrow!  Todays prize is Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir Body and Hand Lotion!  Pomegranate Noir is my very favorite Jo Malone Scent and I have been wearing it for years!  It’s a scent that almost everyone loves!  To enter the contest, you MUST leave your email in the pop-up on my blog, follow me on Instagram and tag 2 friends.  Good Luck!

I’m spending the next few days getting ready for my family to be here for Christmas!  I’m so excited for everyone to be together and to see Hudson’s face when he gets up on Christmas morning to see what Santa brought! 

Thanks so much for reading and as always, I welcome comments and suggestions!  Have a great day!
