Holiday Dressing with Calli Moon

Sweater Weather

Being from Texas, we never really know what weather we are going to get. It has recently been 75 and sunny, making it feel more like spring than winter. Thankfully, though, the temperatures are finally dropping just in time for the holidays! When putting together an outfit for last minute Christmas shopping and lunch with my best friend, I knew the Alison Fox Tail Striped Sweater would be the ideal piece to style. Fashionable yet cozy. This sweater is just as comfortable as it is cute. The multi-texture adds a high-end flare.

It looks amazing paired with denim jeans, but throw on some white pants and you have the perfect transitional piece for spring. The sweater is the picture-perfect length for a slight front tuck, so I accessorized with a cheetah print belt. I added nude colored booties to tie the outfit all together. Sneakers would be a great choice for an even more casual look, or when that shopping day lasts a little too long. The Allison Striped Sweater is available in three other colors, and I may just have to get them all. 

Friendsmas

I don’t know where else better to wear a trendy outfit with velvet than to an annual friendsmas party. Gathering with friends before Christmas is always the best time, with endless photo ops, white elephant gift exchange, and charcuterie galore. I love the trend right now of loose fitted jeans paired with a more formal fitted top. So chic. I knew I had to have the Dani Syrah Velvet Top to pull off this look.

The cranberry color screams holiday, and the ruching detail gives such a flattering fit. To dress it up a bit, I paired this outfit with white booties, but it would also be amazing with a pair of sleek heels. If you want to hit the town after, exchange the denim for a pair of leather pants and you’re ready for the night. This top is so versatile that you’re bound to make a statement no matter how you style it.  

Glamorous NYE

Picking out a New Year’s Eve outfit is always a stressor, luckily WMNSWR has so many options, it’s actually hard to decide what to choose. The Hope Velvet Dress caught my eye with it’s fun and unique cut out detail. The low V and bishop sleeves on this dress will make you stand out from the crowd. Of course you want to sparkle on New Years, but if everyone else in the room is wearing sequins, you can shine with velvet.

This dress could be styled with a pair of white chunky boots to fit the 70’s vibe, or you could elevate the look with a pair of heels. Gold accessories always look great with green, and a simple necklace is a must with this deep neckline. I am counting the days until I make my appearance at the NYE party wearing this adorable number. I have my poppers ready!
