Holiday OOTD

I LOVE the month of December.  Just love it.  I love the spirit around December holidays in general, I just happen to celebrate Christmas. 🙂  It had been a while since my family had professional pictures taken, so for this year’s Christmas card, I decided to get some professional pics done.  We worked with Rachel and Noah Ray and had a blast!!  I had NO idea what we should or would wear, but ended up wearing this as one of the outfits:

Outfit details:

The skirt – I knew I wanted to wear a tulle skirt at some point during the photo shoot, so I went from store to store in search of one.  I was not having any luck finding one and then decided to search the girl’s department at Target.  Eureka!  They had tons!!  This one is an XL which is the equivalent of a Small/Medium I would say.  And, it was only $13!!

Girl’s Red Skirt  – $12.99

The Top – The boys were all going to wear white button down’s, so I went with a plain white boat neck tee.  Actually, it’s my favorite tee for layering at the moment.  It’s super soft, 3/4 sleeved, and hits at the hip.  Also, it’s only $12!  Also from Tarjay. 😉

Women’s Boatneck Tee, $12.00

The Jacket/Cape – They boys wore buffalo plaid hats, so I knew this capelet would be perfect for the shoot!  It’s generously sized, so this one is an XS because I normally buy a Small in garments like this one.

BB Dakota Cape – $52.50 and here

The Booties – I actually wore another pair of shoes as well, but put these one to wear with the skirt.  I love these booties.  They are a bit ruched, the heel is not too high (for me), and they were quite affordable! #winning

We just took the photos today, so I don’t have any to show you (obvi!), but hope to post some on Instagram when we do!!  Until then, hope this outfit provides some inspiration for your holiday shoot, holiday party-going, or perhaps one of the December holidays!

Until next time!  Stay ‘Chic’!
