I'm loving this casual outfit on Swedish model Frida Gustavsson--get a similar look with this melon colored sweater from Topshop, slouchy cuffed jeans and a statement necklace. Either pumps or flats would work with this outfit!

I just have to have these glitter flats! I guess I'm in my glitter period--I just love most sparkly accessories including these flats. I would wear these as an everyday type flat for sure--perfect with a little sweater and boyfriend jeans! Oh, and wouldn't these be the perfect little flats for that New Year's party especially if there's dancing to be done!
This very chic style of flat, which everyone is wearing, is a slipper loafer--it's styled after a gentleman's formal dress slipper!
This is the Darby Loafer from J.Crew.

If you're looking for a new red lipstick for the holidays Bobbi Brown's Burnt Red may be the one to try. I'd been searching the make-up sites looking for a real red when I discovered Burnt Red--a red without cool berry/wine shades, which tend to turn pink on my lips.

Bobbi Brown's Burnt Red is a warm brown-based red. Reviewers report that it's a true red that doesn't turn pink. I'm absolutely frustrated with trying to find a red which stays red especially when I'm wearing a red sweater or dress.

This lipstick is sold online at Sephora.

The glam holiday party jewelry this year is bigger and bolder than ever! I love big and bold so this makes me happy. A recent trend which I love is wearing bold glam jewelry pieces with jeans or skirts--for some really chic looks!

The pieces pictured are from BaubleBar a fabulous jewelry site with the newest and hottest jewelry at very reasonable prices! BaubleBar carries many of the same pieces as high-end department stores but at much cheaper prices--so this site is a real find!

Yes, it's time to break out the sparkly sequined dresses for those holiday parties. I ran across these sparkly party dress looks at Fashion Salade and just had to share them with you.

I just love the styling of these three party dresses--the brighter dress is styled with booties, the off-the-shoulder dress with tights and pumps and the simple sequined dress with a simple pump--sometimes less is more.

Isn't this the perfect little jacket! It seems to have everything! It has the short length which I love when I'm out and about getting in and out of the car. It's also the perfect camel color and although it zips it has toggle buttons which are so hip right now!

This is the Women's Duffle Jacket by Lands' End Canvas. This wool blend jacket has a button-off hood which is great--I love a hood when it's raining or snowing, but I prefer to not have a hood at all most of the time.

This short jacket would be perfect over a tunic sweater and skinny jeans with boots. This jacket would work with much of what I wear for casual and work. This jacket is on my wishlist for sure!

I'm loving these sassy looking work style boots! Yes, I'm sharing more boots! I've come to the conclusion that I can't have too many boots in my closet, with boots being so absolutely stylish--and, besides, I love them!

This is the Jungle boot by Seychelles--it has two-tones of leather to show off the straps, lace-up styling and a side zipper for easy on and off which I love!

This boot has a one-inch stacked heel and a height of seven inches so it's more an ankle boot height--perfect to wear with tights or skinny pants.

You can see these Jungle Boots at Zappos.
