Glamorous and high-priced certainly do not have to go hand-in-hand. You can keep up with all the latest styles and fashion trends without breaking the bank. Here are my favorite (inexpensive) items for the upcoming holiday season!
Sparkling Jewelry – Banana Republic is one of my favorite places to pick up chic yet modern jewelry that is perfect for the office and a night on the town. They have absolutely gorgeous pieces, most for under 50 bucks!
Dog Carrier Purse - Channel your inner celebrity and pick up one of fall’s hottest accessories…the dog purse. Perfect for your little furry friend, the purses are replete with shiny buckles, patent leather, and silver chains without the designer price tag!
Riding Boots - The fall fave is back and as hot as ever, especially paired with leggings or skinny jeans. My pick? Steve Madden’s Brown Riding boots…an inexpensive option at only $140.
Polished Nails - Nothing is more refined, sophisticated, or sexy than well-kept nails. Try a DIY manicure…it will not only save you time, but money. Keep nails trimmed, filed, and short especially if you wear dark polish. Colors to try: O.P.I.’s Midnight in Moscow and Vodka & Caviar.
Pea Coat - The pea coat is a wardrobe staple. They look great at any length and with anything…wear with a flattering pencil skirt or dark jeans. Victoria’s Secret has some of the cutest (and inexpensive) pea coats I have ever seen!
I absolutely adore my little dog, Corky. Even though my boyfriend makes fun of me, I spoil him all the time. He gets so excited whenever I play with him and give him treats, and he always gives me kisses back to show his gratitude. How many people do that every time you do something for them?
I hate leaving him alone all day when I’m at work, at the gym, or out shopping. Luckily, while I was shopping the other day I found a dog carrier purse so that I could tote him along. He loves coming with me, whether it’s to the mall or to some other event with my boyfriend. If anyone else is as motherly and obsessed as I am about their little dog, I think you should get one too!
Now that it is fall, I am anticipating the arrival of the three biggest holidays of the year-Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. I’m co-hosting a fabulous Halloween costume bash and I already have plans for Thanksgiving with my family, but what I don’t know what I’m doing about Christmas and New Year’s Eve.
I can’t help but wonder, should I throw a holiday party for Christmas or New Year’s Eve? I’ve been entertaining more lately with the purchase of my new house, and I have to say that I actually enjoy being a hostess. I already have a recommendation from my Mom about a great Utah holiday catering company. All I would need is some decorations and invitations and I’d be ready to party at my place. I think I’ll do it, but I’ll probably throw a few more little parties to get the ball rolling. Wish me luck! I’ll keep you posted on how my parties go!
As I was looking for a new purse, I came across a surprising find. I found a Utah-based pet boutique that offered designer purses so that I could carry my dog around with me. These dog carrier purses were just the right size for my little guy with some extra room for my items too. They conveniently came in many different styles so that I look as elegant or trendy as my little dog. Be sure to check out their online store full of items for your favorite pet!
