Hello there and Happy Friday friends! I just made it back to good ole Magnolia to spend some time with the family for the holidays. I wish you all safe travels this Christmas. 

Today's post is exceptionally fancy. I bought this absolutely gorgeous velvet dress from Ruche recently to wear to my dear friend Mallory's debutante ball. The dress and the necklace were a hug hit. Since Christmas is rapidly approaching I figured a holiday party shoot was in order. The rich green colour of this dress mixed with the heavy velvet just emanates Christmas elegance. Pair some sparkly gold accessories, such as this stunning golden chain necklace from Grae Apparel, and you are set. 

Sometimes simplicity stands out the most. The beauty of a simple dress is that you can wear it multiple ways to get several uses out of it, without showing up in the same get-up for every party. For instance, try pairing this dress with black 'suede' heels and very minimal jewelry for an understated, yet glamorous look. Or another sparkly necklace with a slightly different neckline. The possibilities are seemingly endless! 

So break out the classics ladies, hit the town, and have a very very Merry Christmas. 

Stay Golden,

xxCaitlin.
