Most bloggers would skip Christmas Day, but I’m so backed up on outfits to share, I figured why not? Wait. Let me start again…

Most bloggers would skip Christmas Day, but I love my dear readers so much that I didn’t want to risk anyone stopping by today and not having anything new to read. You’re welcome, Jews.

Seriously, though. I really do appreciate you all. Whether you comment regularly or just stop by quietly to see what I’ve been up to. I know you’re here because my blog stats tell me so. I wouldn’t have much reason to keep doing this if it weren’t for you. Although I don’t know most of you personally, I do know you probably have a good sense of humor and you have great taste in blogs, so I like to think we’re friends. I hope you all have a truly lovely holiday.

Love and shoes,

Sarah

P.S. The photos above were taken in our living room just after our Christmas party last weekend. I feel weird wearing heels in my own apartment, hence the flats. Oh, and if you want to look like a fancy hostess without trying, just drop frozen cranberries in champagne. Boom.

A White Christmas

Well guys, I can phone it in for the next 2 weeks because this is probably the best I will look this year. My office holiday party was black tie (lawyers…so pretentious, right?) so I took full advantage of the opportunity to look fancy. I knew at a formal event – especially one full of attorneys – there would be a lot of long black dresses, so in an effort to stand out, I went for a short white one. I know a little white dress is usually more of a warm weather thing, but the texture of this one kind of reminded me of a snowflake, and I decided to add Santa-red shoes and lips. In other words, if you thought this was a summer dress…what the hell were you thinking?

I felt like a celebrity on an award show red carpet in this, so in that spirit I feel like I should give some credit to the people who helped me look so good: my wife for taking really great photos, my friend and stylist Brandy for giving me this braid crown, Rent the Runway for existing so I could rent a dress I can’t afford to buy, and Pure Barre for helping me get in great shape over the past 4 months! And my mom. Because you always have to thank your mom.
