I realize it’s barely Thanksgiving and I’m already talking Christmas, but let’s be honest…there were Christmas decorations at Walgreens October 1 so I think I’ve held in my holiday cheer long enough. One of my favorite ways to show holiday spirit is by sporting an ugly Christmas sweater. Now why would I want to wear anything ugly? Because ugly is the new pretty. Except when it comes to this.
This year, Barneys New York is teaming up with Disney to wish you an Electric Holiday. It’s like the best thing from childhood and my favorite store from adulthood have joined forces…and soon will have me spending a lot of money.
Even though people have been talking holiday for the last month or so (which is crazy), I think it’s a much better time to discuss gifts now that it’s November 1. Still early, but a little more acceptable. And in exactly one month from today you’ll be able to shop the Neiman Marcus x Target holiday collection…which I’m pretty excited for. Photos of the full collection are now out, along with the sketches from each designer to show their inspiration.
It’s that time again…where it’s appropriate to wear red and green at the same time (outside of color block season), where you’ve spent way too much money (on both yourself and others…I know I’m not the only one), and where gaining 5-10 lbs is 100% appropriate (right??). It’s Christmas!!! (or “the holidays” to be PC)
I started with this…
And ended with this…
And I can’t wait to see what you all end up with! So anyway I’d love to wish you the happiest of all holidays. I hope you gave/get some kick ass presents. But most importantly, be sure to do at least one good deed for someone else this holiday season. Not everyone gets to celebrate in style, so no matter how you do it… just let someone know you’re thinking of them 
I’ll be doing Christmas “suburban style” this weekend so we’ll chat on Twitter and reconvene Monday. What are you doing to celebrate?
As a member of the Chicago Blogger Network, I’m very excited about the very first CBN Holiday Gift Guide. Over 30 bloggers chose one stylish item for the guide and I am a little embarrassed/not surprised to say….
Mine was by far the most expensive choice. But let’s be honest…who would’t want the Christopher Kane Aqua Clutch? And if you know me at all, you know that this isn’t the blog to read if you’re looking for budget-friendly fashions. It’s just not my forte!
So anyway, go check out the Chicago Blogger Network Holiday Gift Guide. Let me know what you think in the comments section below.
