It’s exactly one week from Christmas and I’ve been religiously listening to Whitney Houston’s “Do You Hear What I Hear”, which is one of my favorite song’s this time of year.  I can’t wait to spend the holidays with my family!

In preparing for another Christmas party this weekend, I opted for a bold and sophisticated look in this exquisite belled A-line shaped orange-red dress.  This outfit is extremely comfortable and stylish, and the dress color symbolizes physical energy which is appropriate for this season.  Coupled with a black blazer makes this look more unified.

I turned this ensemble up a notch by pairing it with my over-the-knee lace overlay peep toe boots.   These lace boots are to die for!  While the origin of lace is disputed by historians, most agree it arose in the early sixteenth century.   It’s safe to say lace has been around for a very long time, and it continues to be featured on runways from New York to Paris.  Lace is classic and I love its ability to add a feminine flair to any outfit it graces.

I’d love to see your comments below on what are you wearing to your holiday parties.  Until then, sending love your way this Christmas!
