This season it’s all about the legs. Reminiscent of the 80s, tight leggings with tunic shirts or sweaters are very popular. Leggings, knee highs, and high socks in bright colors and traditional black are very stylish, and keep you warm as well.

Long-legged boots of all colors and shapes are also all the rage, and can easily be paired with skinny jeans or a skirt. If you want a dressier shoe than boots, go with some black Mary Janes with a pencil skirt.

As for color, purple, black, gray, and cobalt blue are the hottest colors of the season. Green and burnt orange paired with gray or black are also great fall colors. Animal prints are also coming back, so don’t forget to buy purses, shoes, and accessories in this fabric.

Don’t forget to add a little holiday glam by choosing a sequined shirt or bracelets for your next holiday party.

Anything relating to the 1920s is also in style, so don’t be afraid of hats and rounded silhouettes.

With these tips, you’re sure to look your best at every holiday event! And for a traditional look, you can’t go wrong with the little black dress.

As if I’m not stressed enough during the year, the holidays come around and amp up the pressure. Although the holidays should be a jolly time, I dread the annual Christmas shopping. I hate fighting the crowds, even if there are amazing deals the day after Thanksgiving on Black Friday.

I always worry if my hubby will like his gifts and draw complete blanks as to what presents the rest of my family will like. For instance, what am I supposed to ?@# get my new in-laws?

I’ve decided this year that I will cut back the stress. I’m doing most of my shopping online. I bought the rest of my presents on Black Friday in just a few short hours (in and out is my motto).

Although I love cooking, my annual Christmas party is going to be done by a superb Salt Lake City caterer that I used for my wedding.

And last by not least, I am sending out all my Christmas cards soon in one day, and making my husband help me do them. Luckily, we have pictures and cards already picked out and ready to go.

Anybody else have suggestions for making this year a stress-free holiday season? I’d love to hear your ideas!
