Christmas Tree and lights

My favorite things about this time of year is the Christmas trees, the giving  of gifts, & candy canes! My mom always said that I was attracted to anything that sparkled and Christmas trees is one of those things.

After Thanksgiving the 9 foot Christmas tree goes up in our home. We went with traditional red, gold, & white colors on the tree. Also around the house its lots of reds and golds.













Some of the ornaments are special on the tree this year. We found a Johnson & Wales ornament that was given to us by our school. I was excited to see that and put it on the tree because it brought back all the good memories with school mates.




 Another ornament that is new to the tree this year is this gold and red ball that a sweet guy gave me while I was out shopping for my dad's gift. He stopped me before I left the store and handed me this as a thank you for coming in. The store salesman also gave me a plate shaped as Santa Clause.



And look the elf is working in the gift wrapping department! I love the choices of wrapping paper he's got!

outfit of the day: bold blues

  what i wore: express (gift) blouse, thrifted skirt, payless heels, belk's pearl necklace and earrings   This look makes me feel lady like and business savy. I wore this look to the office. Who says your work wardrobe has to be dull? This outfit is office appropriate, but fun with the bold blue skirt. Get away from those gray and black colors. At the corporate office there are rules to your attire: the length of your skirt needs to be at your knee, no sandals, no tank tops or strapless, no leggings, no jeans/jeggings, no house shoes/tennis shoes/stilettos. With many more to list, I won't take up your day. You have got the idea i'm sure. =)   I just wanted to share this with any ladies who adore Lilly Pulitzer, they are having a sale and most items are 80% off! Great deal! www.lillypulitzer.com
