The holiday season is short and sweet, so my capsule wardrobe for the season is also short and sweet. I have four key pieces which can be mixed and matched into several outfits, making it versatile, and also great for traveling during this festive season. Love that!

I love a good sparkle during the holidays, and this sweater offers the perfect amount. The sparkling silver stripes allow it to be festive enough for evening yet understated enough for daytime wear. This sweater paired with jeans is the perfect casual, daytime holiday look. Love!

Of course, for dressy casual occasions, or warmer weather, this sparking black top paired with jeans and heels is the ideal mix of celebration vibes and effortless casual. Grab a faux fur jacket from the archives and its casual party ready!

Have I mentioned how comfy this fabulous skirt is? This skirt offers a fun twist on a classic silhouette with this liquid leather (faux leather) fabric. It’s soft, easy to care for, wrinkle resistant, and looks amazing. Paired with a sweater, it is a fabulous cool weather, holiday look. With the black sparkling top, it is ready for any holiday party invite you RSVP to. Love that!

The holiday season is here! This means we all need something fabulous and sparkly in our wardrobe which works well for daytime, evening, and travel events. Yes, travel! I am excited to share this outfit because the top and skirt are not only perfect for all of the holiday parties here at home, but they also pack well.

What do I mean by “they pack well?” Oh! Let me tell you. Clara Sunwoo makes fabulous clothing which is packable! YES! It folds small and doesn’t wrinkle at all. I tested these pieces out by folding them and stuffing them into a packed suitcase. Guess what, they came out perfectly! No wrinkles! Love that!

Since I will be attending holiday events here at home, as well as traveling for the holidays, this outfit is going to serve me well. I also love how you can mix and match these pieces for different events. The “liquid leather” skirt can be worn with a festive, sequin sweater for casual events or a faux fur jacket for cool, evening events. The top looks amazing with pants and jeans for daytime events. This makes them perfect for my mix-and-match wardrobe! Love it!

Of course, Clara Sunwoo has more than just party attire on her website. If you have travel plans, or just want fuss-free clothing, go check out her entire collection. Everything is packable! Love that!

Holiday travel nails: Chanel nail polish / Dior top coat /

Holiday travel is fast approaching, this means our nails need to be ready for anything! Of course, they also need to be festive. After all, the holiday season also includes events and parties! Love that!

One of my pet peeves while traveling is chipping my nail polish. Who has time to re-do an entire manicure while traveling? Not me! Therefore, it is imperative that a travel manicure be low maintenance yet fabulous. So, this 2024 holiday season, I have put together the perfect holiday travel nail look which if it chips, won’t be obvious. It will also be festive and fabulous. Love!

This summer, Chanel introduced an iridescent nail polish, and for the fall season, Dior did the same. Iridescent polish is hot, not just for this past summer season and this current fall season, but also as we move into the holiday season. It is chic with a twist!

The fun thing about iridescent polish is that it can easily be worn daily without showing scratches or chips since it is slightly sheer, thus enabling the polish to be close to our natural nail hue, even after two coats. This alone, makes it a great color for travel. But, for the holiday travel season, let’s add a little somethin’ somethin’!

For the holiday 2024 season, Dior has given us a golden, sparkling top coat which can be worn over any nail polish color you desire. When it comes to travel, I have found it looks out-of-this-world on top of an iridescent nail polish. Seriously, the photo I took does not do it justice. It’s a really cool look. I am in love!

So, there you have it! A fun and fabulous holiday manicure you can do at home and wear care-free throughout the holiday travel season. Love!

Stay tuned for more holiday season coverage!
