#ILOVESPARKLYTHINGS

Two days ago, the glow queen herself, JLO, uploaded a photo of a ridiculously good looking shiny Gucci outfit and added the hashtag: "#ilovesparkleythings".  I have a few things in common with Jennifer. One being I was also an ESL (english as a second language) pioneer, so I will forgive her misspelling. A second shared characteristic, and the subject of today's post, is the theme of the week/year/life: love of sparkly things.

Too Bright for 2017

Just in checking in from my holidays hiatus to wish you the happiest end of 2017 and beginning of 2018 and direct you to all things shiny and glittery on Over the Moon for your New Years look. Now back to avoiding all of life's responsibilities...

Challenge Accepted: Titanic, 20 Years Later

Over the Moon asked me to pull together looks for Jack and Rose's imagined wedding in celebration of Titanic's 20th anniversary. I hope it takes you back to the pinnacle of your draw-me-like-one-of-your-French-girls Leo crush and I hope you enjoy the iceberg ice cubes as much as I do - check it out here!

It's the Most Romantic Time of the Year

Not only is Santa scheduled to arrive in 10 days, but a wave of engagements is sure to follow. I am not just relying on my own newsfeed in throwing that out - 18% of all engagements happen in December, with Christmas Eve being the most popular day to pop the question.  So ever-ready Over the Moon asked me to put together some bride-to-be-over-the-holidays looks, which I think can also sub for a good New Years outfit if you're not in the nuptials-state-of-mind. 

Speaking of Over the Moon, don't miss their Gift Guides I've been helping with, too. We got some for the bride-to-be, the moms, the dads, the travelers, the squad, the couples, and the BFF - with more to come!

How Lovely Are Your Outfits

Sing it with me now

Red, green and gold, you party on
Sip hot toddies, 'til they're all gone
The most festive threads, you always don
How lovely are your outfits
