Getting Holiday Ready with Morning Lavender

I absolutely love red and tweed for the holiday season! Something about the two together just completely puts me in the spirit! – And oddly enough makes me want to start wrapping gifts! This adorable top and skirt are from the cutest boutique Morning Lavender, which offers some of the most beautiful feminine lace and tulle pieces that you just have to get your hands on for this season! Whether for gifting, or wearing yourself at your holiday gatherings, their skirts are all must-haves! Pricing is on-point, for the quality and fit of the product and their team is the sweetest.

So for this look I styled their Ellie Burgundy Lace Crop Top in a size M with their Kira Ivory Plaid Skirt in size L. I selected these sizes based on how I wanted the pieces to fit. Their sizing guide and customer review sections are super helpful when it comes to size selection. The top has a full back zip closure which I prefer on lace tops, along with a partial lining. There is slight give to the material and it lays beautifully. And for the skirt; it is perfect for winter! It’s thick enough and my favorite part, it is not at all see through as it is lined so you don’t have to worry with spanx or a slip – it is not see through even though its white – woohoo!

I think this is the cutest holiday look and would look fabulous day to night! I have added my OTK boots in black and a classic bag to complete the ensemble, without overdoing it. And for makeup, I kept it pretty neutral with my newest lippie obsession by Charlotte Tilbury.

 

Leo & Nicole: A One-Stop Sweater Destination

I recently had the opportunity to collaborate with Leo & Nicole, a women’s apparel label and was able to try out, and review, a few pieces from their fall 2017 collection.

The pieces I selected included a transitional cowl neckline tunic length sweater, and a cable knit cold shoulder sweater. Both sweaters arrived promptly, and I must say, I was very impressed with the quality of the pieces. The sizing is true-to-size and the fit is flattering. The weight of the materials is excellent and the colors are vivid and beautiful.

I have enjoyed wearing both of these pieces over the past few weeks and have styled them many different ways! Leo & Nicole pieces are so easy to wear, and seamlessly fit anyone’s style! I love the classic woven designs they offer, but with a trendy spin like the cold shoulder detailing and transitional cowl neckline. These pieces are great for any age range, and are perfect for gifting and sporting this holiday season. You can accessorize to your hearts content and are sure to look ultra fabulous with Leo & Nicole!
