Plaid Holiday Shoes

Plaid Holiday Shoes

Velvet Leggings (But remember: Lululemon has the BEST faux leather ones!  Spanx has a great velvet version, too. See them also in velour. The Commando pair comes in leather, too.)

Christmas Outfit Ideas

My approach to Christmas outfit ideas this year is to keep it simple! That’s why all of these Christmas outfit ideas are made up of mostly versatile pieces that can be reworn throughout the rest of the winter.

South Seas Bar Cart (Large) c/o / South Seas Side Cart (Small) / South Seas Console Table

Last year, during our KonMari challenge, we learned that we are personally happier, more productive and more clear-minded in spaces that are inviting yet uncluttered.
