Velvet LBD // Shoes // Similar Earrings // Clutch // Nail Polish (here and here) //Lip Gloss in Naked
My birthday is a week away and I love to celebrate with friends and go to dinner. They are always so nice to keep my birthday separate from Christmas and New Year’s celebrations. This Velvet LBD will be going with me to my birthday dinner.
I wore it to a party last week and received so many compliments. So many of you liked it, too, when I posted it on Instagram that night. I hope you’ll be wearing it NYE if you don’t opt for a sparkling dress from this post.
Mary, my fabulous photographer and blogger friend, couldn’t believe it was Topshop and under $200! The detailed embroidery and precision cutwork make it look like a much more expensive dress. Being a European brand, it is cut a bit smaller so do size up.
Today is the last day to get your gifts in time for Christmas. Be sure to check this post for my Last Minute Gift Ideas and all the shipping information you need. Also, don’t forget that Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and even Urban Outfitters have Buy Online and Pick Up in Store! Also, Neiman’s just started their Treat Yourself Sale with up to 55% off. I mean, why not?!?! You’ve shopped for everyone else. 🙂
Well, I’m off to finish wrapping and begin prep with my mom on our Traditional Christmas Menu. I hope you are having a great holiday season with your family and friends.
Merry Christmas!
Alicia
