The Holiday season always brings out the extra girly in me. I love wearing reds, deep pinks, black and plum colors. If you follow my blog, you know I lean more towards a classic/feminine look with the occasional dip into a men’s wear inspired boot or jacket. The below OOTD (with the exception of the crossbody bag) were Christmas gifts from my parents. I love the fact that I have such a fashion forward family and that my parents know my style aesthetic so well! The turtle neck is super cozy and warm and the cable knit stitch is lovely. The striped beret is right up my alley and the various tonal shading is simply beautiful. I decided to pair up this outfit with my Kate Spade leather crossbody bag I found at T.J.Maxx during the summer time. I felt this bag brought a chic, but not too fussy approach to the ensemble. My favorite piece from this look were the square drop earrings from J.Crew! They are so flattering and vibrant. I am not a person that shy’s away from bold colors, so this accessory was the perfect finishing touch!
