Paisley for the Holidays

Dress: Twinkledeals (c/o)
Shoes: Twinkledeals (c/o)
Purse: AMIClubwear (c/o)
Necklace: Mod & Soul (c/o)

Paisley is not a pattern or print that you would normally associate with holiday glam looks. Hence, I wanted to come up with ways in which I can glam it up a little to make it fit for the holidays - since after all, I'm trying to showcase holiday-inspired looks for the blog this month! As it turns out, it does not take much to elevate simple dresses like this to make it fit for your holiday parties or a glam NYE party.

This paisley print dress is made of a soft cotton fabric. I initially bought it for casual use because it feels so comfortable on. To dress it up a little, you need a pair of statement heels. This one is from Twinkledeals and it is super affordable. The suede exterior gives it a cool-chic vibe to it. Meanwhile, a statement necklace like this favorite of mine from Mod & Soul can easily dress up any outfit.

For this holiday season, if you're not too keen on buying party dresses that you won't have much use for, I suggest you try it with some of your existing dresses in your wardrobe. An accessory or two (my favorites are statement necklaces -or earrings- and statement heels) can go a long way in terms of making a simple dress look party-ready!

Have you picked out what to wear for the holiday celebrations yet?

Summer Prints Series: Paisley

The 70's power print is back on the fashion map - paisley. I can't truly say that paisley is one of my favorite prints. But I love that a paisley print brings a hint of boho and summer vibe into an outfit, especially when used on flowy and sheer fabrics. It is a nice print to go to for summer when you want to step out of the traditional floral print. Even though paisley used to be applied onto fashion accessories like shawls or scarves, things have changed as they are also used extensively on a lot of modern fashion pieces. 

Move over, floral. Check out some of the gush-worthy paisley pieces I found online (and all of these under $100!)
