The holiday seasons are here and holidays = dinner with friends, family reunions and the endless Christmas parties. I do not plan to shop for myself this December since I'm kinda broke, the malls are in a state of chaos and I'm waiting for the sales on January. Also, I want to maximize the pieces that I already have in my closet. So I'm making this my season for mixing and matching! Here are some the pieces that I plan to incorporate into my holiday dressing. Most of these are old stuff from my closet except for the hair thingies..=) Since I'll be wearing my old mostly gray/black clothes I'll just add these few pieces to make my look a little bit more festive. 
(All from SM department store)
(All from SM department store)Headbands with rhinestones or feather details are a cheap way to instantly liven up an all black ensemble.
(Unbranded fringe scarf; Patricia Field for Marks and Spencer scarf)
Probably the only time I could wear scarves for its real purpose -- to keep me warm!(Unbranded fringe scarf; Patricia Field for Marks and Spencer scarf)
Tights can polish a look in an instant.You can also wear them with your too short dresses that's been hiding in your closet.
(Aldo earrings)
We all need a pair of big, bold statement earrings in our life.
Now's the best time to buy if you still don't have one.
Solo Men's Jacket; Thrifted $1 blazerThank God for the Christmas breeze! I can now rock my blazers/jacket without looking like a Sweaty Betty.
(Yellow clutch and Black clutch with gold detail: Forever 21; Plastic structured clutch: CMG)Arm candies!
I unearthed my woven oversized clutch in my closet. Yey I thought I lost this yellow baby. The smallest one was the clutch I used during my graduation last April. The black one with the pyramid stud is such a steal I got it for $10.

Last but definitely not the least -- Make-up! Make-up is an essential this holiday season. The party season is the perfect excuse to get dolled up and try new looks. I will always be loyal to the smoky eye look as it is the look that I've kinda mastered but I will also try experimenting with my new palette that I got from the bazaar.

The siblings and I had dinner at our favorite restaurant Cibo.
Janilyn snakeskin pumps, Brother's Vans sneakers. I don't know what brand of shoes my sister wore that day.Tomorrow is Surgery's Christmas party and I'm on duty (AGAIN!) at the ER! Booo.. I don't know if we could make takas (sneak out of the hospital) later into the night but we still have to ask the chief Surgery resident for permission..=( I SERIOUSLY WANT TO GO!
Free food + an excuse to dress up = a happy me!
The fascinator is so pretty, it's so colorful! Love also the yellow colored clutch.
ReplyDeleteI don't do Christmas shopping for myself too especially during December because usually they hike up the prices. Wait na lang ako for the January sales. ;)
You're ready to party Mads. Cibo at ATC? Too bad we didn't bump into each other. I love Cibo... the best iced tea in the whole wide world.
ReplyDeleteI love Cibo! And feathers! And that black clutch with the gold stud!
