The Steele Maiden: Holiday Outfit Plaid Frill Hem Dress
Maybe it’s because last year at this time we were living in sunny Los Angeles, and it never really felt like Christmas to me there – but this year I’m practically giddy with the thought of it. I mean we’re only 5 days into December and so far I’ve worn some combination of plaid at least 4 of them (versions here and here). This go around I wanted to dress it up a bit and started with this little flippy hemmed plaid number. I like a long sleeved dress in the winter and this one is in a thick neoprene that really holds it’s shape. Paired it with these sheer bow tights (equal parts fun and flirty) and turquoise statement earrings (I like the idea of throwing a color into the mix that’s not traditionally thought of for ‘holiday’). Ready for a December date night. That hopefully involves lots of twinkly lights.
