A Comfy Holiday Party Look

Wow! ย You guys, can you believe we passed Thanksgiving and have truly entered the Christmas holiday season? ย I, for one, am still feeling a few months behind. ย I think the weather threw me off entirely, because I might be listening to the Christmas music on repeat, but Thanksgiving felt like it should have been Halloween since the cold temperatures took so long to hit Richmond! ย Either way though, I’m trying to get into the holiday spirit, and one of the ways I’m doing this is by dressing like I’m party-ready 90% of the time!

Here’s the thing about holiday parties: you want to dress up and look nice, but you don’t want to freeze your tush off or underdress. ย It can be challenging to find a good in-between, but thankfully I have a few trusty outfits to share with you over the next several weeks (including this one) that will leave you feeling fierce and comfortable!

Enter the pleated midi-skirt. ย I’m absolutely thrilled that this trendy skirt style didn’t go out this winter. ย I purchased a metallic, rose-velvet one last year that I wore through the holiday season. ย This year, I decided on a shimmery silver version that seriously couldn’t be more flattering. ย Each time the wind caught the pleats and I saw the pretty, fluttering motion, I just wanted to keep spinning around! ย This skirt in particular has an elastic waistband, so it’s incredibly comfortable, even while you’re snacking at those parties!

I chose to pair my outfit with a large tote bag. ย This comes in handy if I want to carry touch-up makeup, an extra pair of shoes, a jacket, or even snacks or drinks! ย I can fit my laptop and my camera in this bag, as well as my water bottle and more! ย It’s really fantastic to have so much space, especially if you’re party-hopping for the evening. ย Goodness, you could even fit a whole second outfit inside if you’d like (but I think this one is comfy enough that you’ll want to stay in it all night)!

I’m excited to share more holiday party looks with you soon! ย Let me know what kind of festivities you’ll be attending, so I can think up some extra-creative outfits!
