Top: Nordstrom BP; Pants: Lucy Paris; Shoes: Louboutin.

Usually I don’t blog an outfit beforehand but I’m making an exception for NYE … New Year’s Eve has always been an excuse for me to leave the house bedazzled in sequins (which, if it were socially and fashionably acceptable, I would wear everyday.) This year is no different. I am pairing a pair of Lucy Paris sequin leggings with a plain black tee for a laid back, yet sparkly look.

Skirt: Akira Chicago; Top: Nordstrom; Jacket: Nanette Lepore; Bag: YSL; Shoes: Louboutin.

I channeled my inner Carrie Bradshaw this weekend when I attended The Joffrey Ballet’s performance of The Nutcracker. I paired a gold top from Nordstrom with my favorite look for this holiday season — a huge tulle skirt. While it definitely spilled over into the seat next to me, this skirt screams holidays and looked great paired with a wool Nanette Lepore blazer.
