So many upcoming events this month. You need something festive, appropriate, and unique for each. Weither it's a company Christmas dinner, cocktails with close friends, or a full day of casual family fun. There are plenty of options and fun ways to spice it up for the holiday season.
Holidays are about excess and richness. Rich foods, decedent desserts, and the same goes for your look. Evening parties are the time for dark colours, sequins, lace and intricate patterns are what we reach for first. Smokey eyes in deep plums, navy, jewel tones, and black framed with soooo long lashes and touched with sparkle. Rich shimmery stained lips. Elegant up dos and a ton of jewelry complete this evening look.
Not all holiday events call for all out glam. Afternoon coffee get togethers, tree trimming parties or a cookie exchange with the girls. I love big soft curls this time of year. It's pretty and with the wind and the static from car heat it's just easier then a smooth poker straight do. Natural make up with glossy lips lots of lashes and well highlighted skin gives a kind of heavenly glow. Match up with comfy sweaters and your all set for good company good laughed and maybe a good cuddle by the fire!
For all the events in between. Say family dinners where you want to look elegant and festive but still be comfortable and able to tumble about on the floor playing with the kids or just hanging out on the couch catching up with loved ones. I like to take the approach of mixing the two looks above, glam the make up but do a comfy outfit. Wearing jeans? Stick to dark washes and play it up with a beautiful top and lots of accessories. For all day events you can even consider bringing a change of clothing and some extra make up to dress it up for dinner.
Whatever you wear and whatever you do, have fun this holiday season take chances, and take a moment to reflect and really enjoy it.
