Whoop whoop! I am so excited right now. Two of my favorite magazines have just come out with their December issues AND at Target, if you buy both People StyleWatch and InStyle magazine you get a $5 Target gift card! I have subscribed to both magazines over the years and have bought both forever. The September issues are of course one of my favorites, but dare I say, I think I love the holiday editions more. All of the holiday fashion, glam, and gift guides really suck me in.
This weekend after picking them up, I experienced my first Christmas miracle: time to myself! Everyone was asleep and I somehow still had energy to stay up and relax. It was glorious! What's more perfect than a lit tree, your favorite magazines and snack, and your baby monitor showing your sleeping beauty. I reveled every minute of it.
People StyleWatch has a feature in their December issue highlighting wearing skirts over the holiday and I couldn't agree more! Skirts are perfect for any party, can be worn with tights for extra warmth, and you can go sexy, flirty, or edgy with them. My closet doesn't have that many flirty skirts (mostly pencils) so I immediately started looking online and fell in love with this pretty one. Here is an outfit that was inspired by that article and the skirt I found. For a night out, pair a
textured skirt with an
embellished top, add some
glam earrings, and
metallic heels and you're ready!
In both People StyleWatch and InStyle had a lot of features for gorgeous accessories and beauty trends and since I've been on a jewelry kick since being pregnant, I had to put together some of my favorite looks inspired by the issues.
I think with any season, the extras are what make your outfit. They're a great way to jazz up what you already have in your closet, dip your foot into a new trend, and can be very budget friendly. Jeweled
headbands or
pins can be worn so easily with your hair up or down. InStyle featured a deep-berry mouth and this
Black Cherry shade is gorgeous! I'm on the hunt for that lipstick and have been to two Targets that have been sold out!
Jeweled necklaces really are a neutral for me now and are so much easier to wear than I initially thought.
Glitter polish is an absolute must for the holidays, and a staple for me.
This year, I really want to do more with my hair, I feel like I'm always wearing it the same way (down and curled) and want to really branch out in putting it up more. The darker lip is another trend I'm dying to try. I've been hunting up and down the beauty aisles trying to find the perfect pucker color. Any suggestions or favorites of yours?
What are you looking to wear over the holiday season? What are your favorite trends right now?

Those bow pins are adorable :)
This has close to nothing to do with your post, but can I just say I want to be Carrie Underwood?

I really want to try a darker lip too but it's so hard for me to find a shade of any lipstick that works. Here's to finding the perfect shade!
