Best of 2025 from top left: black belted tote / Hermes nail polish / Chanel nail polish / classic sweater / wide leg jeans / earrings / east/west handbag / ReVive cream / Dior nail polish / high heels / Chanel fragrance / top handle caramel bag /

2025 is coming to an end, so let’s celebrate everything we loved throughout the year!

When it came to handbags, we loved belted totes, east/west styles, and the anonymous handbag. Thankfully these styles continue to thrive in 2026. Although, there will be a few new styles to covet in the new year, so keep what you have, and stay tuned for the upcoming trends of 2026!

There is a return to professional attire trending in the workplace. In 2025 we started our classic high heels collections, this will continue in 2026. Invest in neutral, classic high heel shoes for the workplace and beyond. Love!

Lightweight fragrances are trending now and into new year. This one from Chanel is a hit!

When it comes to nail polish, anything goes! Keep wearing what you love. In 2025 we loved all the colors!

Pearl jewelry is classic, and it has also been trending. Watch it explode in 2026.

Winter outfit ideas for a Broadway San Jose show

 in General Fashion  tagged broadway san jose / outfit ideas / outfits / winter 2026 by

Well, I am not sure why this video looks so grainy when I embed it on my website. Hopefully you can still see the outfits and get the idea!

Broadway San Jose has a fabulous line-up of shows, and you might be wondering what to wear to them! Also, these looks can work in any city if you are not in the Bay Area. In a colder climate? Just add a coat! Love!

So, without further ado, here are three outfit ideas for attending a Broadway Show!

Outfit one: Day into evening: Attending a show on a weekday? You will likely be wearing what you wore to the office that day. I recommend something comfortable for the long haul such as trousers, boots, and a lightweight sweater you can top with a coat and scarf.

Outfit two: Weekend matinee: Attending a show during the day on Saturday or Sunday? A long sleeve dress is perfect! This one happens to be under $100. Love that! You can easily top it off with a coat.

Outfit three: “A Beautiful Noise” is playing on Broadway San Jose and Neil Diamond’s music deserves some sparkle. Why not wear your New Years Eve outfit and sparkle! Love this! My dress happens to be under $100 too. Love! If you are attending a different evening show, feel free to wear something fun and in theme with the show, so go for outfit one or two. They are all appropriate for evening weekend shows too!

For Broadway San Jose’s full schedule and ticket info, check out BroadwaySanJose.com.

Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy the show!

XOXO
