Earlier this month we had an office Festivus. Naturally I took the opportunity to dress extra festively. It was really just some pizza and a very competitive white elephant gift exchange. But since today is the official Festivus holiday, be sure to engage in many feats of strength (I’m going to Pure Barre class tonight) and let all the people in your life know just how many problems you have with them.

I remember I was SO excited when I found this shirt last year. I really wanted a flannel shirt that had red and green in it…you know, to get in the Christmas spirit and look adorable at the same time. When I saw this one at J. Crew I knew my search was over. It doesn’t get much more Christmassy or adorable than this. And good news – it’s now available at J. Crew Factory!

Mine has been in storage all summer and fall, and I wore it again for the first time the day after Thanksgiving to go Christmas tree hunting and Black Friday shopping. Yep, I went all in. Why not? Christmas only happens for a whole month every single year.

Also, be sure to take a moment and appreciate my mother-in-law’s nicely decorated front porch. She was disappointed I didn’t take my outfit photos IN THE DARK so you could see the Christmas lights. Selfishly, I decided I wanted to be visible in the photos for my own blog. Some Christmas spirit I have, huh? I’ll try more plaid…
