Holiday Outfits Are a Hit!

I wore one of the outfits from my post "Holiday outfits that are sure to create mistletoe anywhere you go" (the red pin skirt, black top, and dramatic necklace) on Christmas day and it was a hit! I topped it off with red lipstick and a low bun for an overall dramatic look. Take a look at how it turned out below, but based off of the positive reactions I think that it really holds true that you do not have to spend a lot of money to look like a million bucks! Happy Holiday season to all!
