Although I tend to wear red, green, black for the Holidays, sometimes it is nice to mix it up. I am styling teal velvet for the Holidays paired with faux leather.

Wearing Gold for the Holidays
"Silver and Gold, Silver and Gold, Everyone wishes for silver and gold. " An oldy but goody from Burl Ives. I'll be wearing gold for my Holiday outfits this year.
There is more velvet in store! Yes, I love this fabric, especially around the Holiday season.
Velvet is one of the most luxurious fabrics that we think about around this time of year.
Hello friends!Isn't it funny? I am now working on a song, a jazz standard called Autumn Leaves, and how fitting is it I wear this kimono for this post?Soft Surroundings sent me this piece and the cardigan topper I wore yesterday on the blog. What else besides gold and rust-colored leaves could make you think of Fall?
Hello ladies!Woot-Woot 2 more weeks until Christmas.
This is one of those shop your closet looks for the Holidays. All pieces are from my closet, or bought secondhand, and I enjoy putting things together that I already have for the Holidays. The new item I am wearing are the Kendra Scott gold earrings, they are so nice! I've created a gold and off white look today with a touch of leopard. The skirt is one of my favorites and has gold threading throughout. So, expect to see a few more Holiday looks as I love dressing up for this special Day.

Velvet Blazer -Silk Blouse and Jeans
Hello friends,I hope you all had a happy weekend. It is finally getting chilly here in Charlotte, and I love it! I do enjoy the sun, as it has a positive effect on my mood, but there is nothing like the Fall chill in the air for sleeping too. I won't delve into this topic too much, but having or nearing menopause, I am nearly almost always hot, or warm. So, i love being cold at night and getting cozy under the covers. It just makes for better sleep. On a fashion note, I am talking about the trend for Fall-Velvet. I have quite a few velvet pieces in my wardrobe, and this is the styling of one piece and a sample from last year.
