Holiday Dinner Outfit

Holiday dinner with some coworkers this weekend...this is what I decided on: sequined top, skinny jeans, metallic heels, blazer, clutch.  Try this combo and see how it works for you!

Jackie O.? Maybe?

This is probably as close as I'll ever get to channeling Jackie O. Little cropped jacket, skinnies and ballet flats.

Scarf...Two Ways

There are TWO ways to wear an infinity scarf. Its true. Around your neck as a scarf....

 OR around your shoulders as a shawl.

Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate

Careful...this is not for the faint of tummy! :)  It super rich but soooo worth it. I've been addicted to Starbuck's Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate for years but this recipe is even better. How? you ask. I have no idea.

Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate

16 oz milk (i used whole)
4 oz dark chocolate (i used chocolate chips or you can crush up your fave kind)
4 oz milk chocolate (again, i used chips)
caramel sauce
sea or kosher salt

Take 8 oz of milk, 4 oz of dark chocolate, salt and heat until melted. Whisk while melting. WHISKING is key for this to be smooth. Continue heating and whisking and add rest of milk and milk chocolate with a spoonful or two of caramel sauce. Continue to heat/whisk til hot and smooth.

Top with whipped cream, caramel drizzle and some salt.

ENJOY :)

Before & After

I bought these jeans a year or two ago and they were distressed on the thigh. They are Mek Denim (NOT cheap!) After a few wears, they split. I didn't feel appropriate wearing them even for a girls nite out. So, I finally fixed them! I bought a pair of jeans from Goodwill and cut them up into patches to match the holes I needed to fill. Pulled out my trusty ole thread and needle and went to work! The results are SO worth it!! I can now wear a pair of my favorite jeans again :)

Day to Night

Going from day to night...jean shirt and flat boots for day and a sheer black one shirt and heeled boots for nite. (Ignore the socks...they're for health reasons.)
