All that Glitters is Gold....Holiday Party Ready

Mock Turtleneck Tights Oxford Wedge (Similar) Skirt (Similar)

I was so in love with these red doors!

With only a week before Christmas (6 days if you're counting), there is so much going on; parties, dinners, family gatherings & more. With so much to do, there's not always extra time to put in to your outfits. Sometimes it's easier with a formal event to grab a cocktail dress and heels, but what about office parties and gatherings that aren't so formal?? This look is easy, comfortable, appropriate and goes seamlessly from office to cocktail hour.

This basic black mock neck top from H&M is a must have basic and it's only $14.99. It's lightweight, breathable and the mock neck style doesn't overwhelm me (some turtlenecks are too much on my petite frame). These opaque black tights are part of my uniform in the colder months and I usually grab them from places like TJ Maxx, Target, & DSW. I generally have good luck with tights; very rarely do I damage them with jewelry or an aggressive finger nail. If you're not as lucky, these are all affordable options. Hope I haven't jinxed myself! ;) My Oxford wedges are a couple years old, but I always get compliments on them and a wedge is great for all night comfort and dancing! For my necklace, I've linked a couple of similar options from Express that achieve the same effect. Mine was picked up in store at J Crew Factory, but Express does great costume jewelry and everything is 50% right now.

The star of this look is my mini skirt. I picked this up around the Summer time at J Crew Factory, but it has an amazing holiday feel! It's a looser fitting mini (no stretch). You can really pair any statement skirt with this look. If you have a stricter business dress code at your office, you can switch out a pencil skirt for a fun shimmery option when party time rolls around. Below, I've added a few other skirts I love!
