Haul out the Holly

When: Dec. 10 // Weather: 30s // Real life: black tie office holiday party

Props to my stylist Krystal for giving me a “not trying too hard” updo.

It’s the moooost wonderful tiiiiime of the year! The time for holiday parties, obvs. I’m currently recovering from the party we hosted at our house, so let’s look back on a time when I looked a bit less disheveled. Weekend before last was my firm’s annual black tie holiday party. It’s the event where lawyers let loose in the only way they know how: with an open bar and a craps table. It’s also the event where I hope one my bosses will get drunk and say/do something embarrassing that I can hold over their head later, but no such luck this year. Just fun, frivolity, and fancy dresses.

Dress (rent for $70) // Clutch // Bracelet

Oh, and did I mention the party had a Mardi Gras Masquerade theme? Never would have guessed I would go to 2 masquerade balls in one season! I swear this really is my real life, my life has just been very masqueradey lately.
