Holiday Looks with Anthropologie

One of my favorite places to shop for unique holiday looks is Anthropologie. I have a few things that have survived the test of time that I can pull out to this day, even years later.  I’m kicking off the holiday season with several looks, new and old.

If you happen to catch this post before the end of the day Sunday, 11/28, Anthro is running a sale. If not, their items are soooo cute, they are worth even full price.

I recently was accepted to a shopping platform called Like To Know It, or LTK. It’s kind of a big deal as you have to post for three months to show your commitment to fashion with snazzy photographs and I finally did it. This is great for both of us because it makes it easier to shop an entire look and I make a small commission at no extra cost to you. Win-Win!

I found two Anthropologie sweaters  I LOVE! I honestly haven’t decided which one to keep. It might be both. (Don’t tell Hubby!)

Shout-out to Haven, a home decor shop in Laguna Beach! Mara, the owner is just like me, just starting out and using what she knows to make people happy and the world a more beautiful place. Haven ships nationwide. Follow on Instagram, @havenlaguna. She could not have been nicer to me while photographing, offering tons of help.

Also, my dear friend shot most of my holiday photos in Laguna Beach. She is a professional photographer and has a huge following on Instagram. @jaymemaxwell.

!The raspberry, nobby sweater is soooo soft and can be dressed up or down. I paired it with the soft ruffle top by Vince Camuto and AG Alexxis vintage high-rise denim and heels. A link to the entire look here.

Timeless!

My other Anthropologie fave, this cream studded cardi with pearls and teal faux gems. While I was photographing in Laguna, I kept running into this lady staying at the same hotel. She literally wanted to take this sweater off my back! Just sayin’.

Paired the same way, AG vintage denim and Vince Camuto top with the killer boots from SilentD. I picture this outfit at a cookie exchange, but the pearls can dress up any look. Link here.

Royal Gems!

My third look from Anthro is a velvet top I purchased last year, when we went almost nowhere because of Covid. The blue-green version is not available, but I posted a couple of options. This look I think is worthy of drinks at the bar with friends, cool Christmas! Link here.

Cheers! (I drank mine before the photo, ooops.

Let the holiday fashion begin!

Three Thanksgiving Outfits: Part 1

Over the last few months, I’ve been adding fun things to my closet to mix and match for lots of occasions. Hopefully, you have too if you’ve been inspired to invite the same stylish items into your fashion lineup. I’ll show you several Thanksgiving outfits you can pull from the collection. Two items are new because, well, I couldn’t resist.

One of the new pieces is the incredible vegan leather pants from Aritzia.  I first spotted the cool pants while shopping and she told me where to find them. They first made their debut last year and were such a hit Aritzia brought out more colors this year. Black is fine for me. The pants are straight leg, long or cropped. Personally, I think cropped is more stylish.

I like these pants for Thanksgiving because they give and are dark enough to hide the extra side of stuffing I might not resist. I paired them with my favorite turtleneck and styled them two ways depending on your mood.

Let’s get this party started with a sparkle in the glass and on the sneaks.

If you want to dress it up a bit, grab the slip skirt and a cream sweater by Vince from Nordstrom, the second new item this week.  The boiled cashmere is so, so soft and the mock turtleneck gives it a hip vibe. The killer booties work just fine here and are comfy enough for standing or serving.

A quick, already-in-my-closet look, the burgundy puff sleeve sweater with @motherdenium flares can be dressed up with boots and cool earrings. The top is sold out from the Nordstrom Anniversary sale.  The gray flannel jacket and earrings are from three years ago. Love it when a look comes together with items I’ve never paired together before.
