Today kicks a week long guide to Holiday Parties. That magical time of year when you have tons of places to go, but suddenly nothing to wear. Never fear. I promise you there’s options somewhere in between the kitschy reindeer sweater and the same LBD you wore last year. To start – I’m playing hostess. Whether you’re having a few friends over, just your family, or a whole houseful you’re going to have all eyes on you. So go for comfortable but pulled together. I like to go a little retro when I host (think Mad Men, with a modern twist) which here, translates to a cozy cropped open jacket, a few non fussy accessories, comfortable heels, and one knock ’em dead piece. This skirt. Full, flirty, shiny and swingy it’s everything I want in a holiday hostess outfit. Dress like this and don’t run out of cocktails. You’ll be a surefire hit.

Such a perfect holiday look here – that cropped fuzzy sweater is a dream! And yes, the first rule of hosting: never run out of cocktails. xx Kat

Between this sweater and a handful of others and I’m slowly dressing more and more like a teddy bear each day ha! Also we should get a holiday cocktail soon xx
Such a gorgeous skirt – and it pairs so nicely with these cozy chic pieces!
