It’s always fun to look back through the year, as well as back on previous years, and see how I dressed! Do you ever do this? haha, I realized a couple of years ago I dressed up a little bit more then I do now. This year I wore more denim, and less high heels. I favored slides over sandals last summer, and booties over pumps at night. I wore less dresses this year then in previous years, and I wore bigger earrings in 2017 then ever before! To reflect, here is a month-by-month recap of my casual, 2017 style.

What changes in your own personal style did you notice in 2017?
December is the season to wear red! I feel like my wardrobe this year is comprised of grey and black. So when I spotted this cozy cardigan on major sale, I had to snap one up in red!
This cardigan is so soft and cozy. It is perfect to wear right now as a casual holiday look. I plan on wearing it Christmas day too. This cardigan is a fabulous grab and go sweater as well, love that!
This is such a busy time of year. My oldest daughter is getting ready for her semester finals, and my younger two children are wrapping up their semester with projects and tests. I’m heading into busy season with one of my volunteer jobs, and I am hosting Christmas this year! I wish we had a little bit more time before Christmas. It is coming so fast!
Are you busy this holiday season? How are you managing your time?
If you are hosting an event this holiday season, and need a fun, non-alcoholic drink idea, check out my Harry Potter inspired Butterbeer recipe.
Shop my casual Christmas outfit idea:
My two youngest children took these photos. I think they did a pretty good job!
Sparkles, sparkles and more sparkles! I love wearing sparkles during the holiday season. This black, bell sleeve sweater has tiny silver sparkles sewn into the knit, making it a festive way to feel the holiday spirit in a casual ensemble; love that!
As the temperatures rise to 60 degrees on some days during the winter months, a thinner knit sweater is more comfortable then a heavy coat. This sweater is great on moderate winter days; and the sparkling knit makes it great to wear to daytime holiday events, as well as casual evening house parties.
I wore this outfit the other day when I was out Christmas shopping with my kids. We walked all over the place, and it was so comfortable!
My two younger kids snapped these photos while we were shopping, they did a pretty good job!! My middle child is taking photography classes. I am so excited that she loves taking pictures (think free blog photographer!). She is really artistic, and wants to be an artist when she grows up. She seems to have a lot of artistic interests. When she grows up, she would like to be a painter, a cartoon maker (think Pixar!), a fashion designer, and a photographer. I can’t wait to see what she grows into! My son wants to be an astronaut, and the first man on Mars! I’m certain he will get there! My teenager changes her mind daily; so I’ll keep you posted! haha I’m sure she will decide on something fabulous!
Well, I seem to have gone off track from my outfit, haha. If you have kids, what are they planning to be when they grow up?
If you are looking for a great winter sweater, check out my bell sleeves sweater; it’s on sale!!
Thanks for stopping by!
