5 Holiday-Ready Outfits

I love this time of year. With holiday festivities in full swing and Christmas decorations around the house, I can’t help but feel the magic of the season. No matter what events you are attending this month, I’ve pulled together a few festive outfits perfect for any occasion. Don’t be afraid to throw on some big earrings (I love the bows), sequins or lace as they are the perfect holiday statement. 

Last night, we hosted a little Christmas dinner party with some of our friends from college. We don’t get to see our college friends too often, so it was a nice way to reconnect and catch up on life. We sat around the fire and played games, enjoyed some festive drinks and shared a wonderful meal.

For the food, we all decided to do a potluck dinner. I’ve never hosted a potluck dinner party and I have to say, this was pretty fun (and way less stress with the planning). Everyone brought their favorite meals and desserts for us all to enjoy. It was also the perfect opportunity to use our MacKenzie-Childs dishes and snack bowls. It was so exciting to see how everyone got involved and sample the different meals. We might have to do that again!

I hope you guys have a great start to your week! xx Ashley
