Ladylike Style For New Years Eve

If you’re fan of glam, ladylike style, then you’re going to love the jeweled Lady Top by Julie Brown designs. It’s perfect for New Years Eve and easy to style! I wore it with a pair of faux leather leggings, but it looks super cute with wide leg jeans or tucked into a skirt. I topped of my outfit with a faux fur, grey coat and my mint Mini A-list Satchel in light blue for hint of color.

Loose Boho Waves For New Years Eve

Feast your eyes on my last holiday hairstyle with Tresemme featuring loose boho waves just in time for New Years Eve! This sequin gown may be a little fancy for New Years Eve, but it’s perfect if you’re attending a black tie event soon or a Mardi Gras Ball in Louisiana. The loose boho waves, however will work well with any New Years Eve plans!

Jeanie’s tips for loose boho waves: This classic look gets a make over by using a flat iron. After rough drying hair with Perfectly Undone Sea Foam, use a flat iron turning plates 90 degrees left and then right. You are left with a looser S wave with a more natural finish.

After checking out all three hairstyles, I’d love if you commented below with the look you loved most: the undone braid, the top knot or loose boho waves!

Cozy Front Porch For Christmas Eve 2015

I can’t believe Christmas Eve 2015 is tonight and just one more sleep until Christmas day! Although, you can’t even tell over here considering that it pretty much feels like summer outside at 75 degrees plus buckets and buckets of rain! I can’t complain too much though because if hot, rainy weather and terrible traffic are the only two things putting a damper on my holiday, then I’d consider myself pretty lucky! I feel so blessed for the amazing year I’ve experienced so far and I can’t wait to see what 2016 brings. I’m especially grateful for this guy in the photos below! The fact that he puts up with me and my ridiculousness makes me love him even more! For example, he loathes taking photos, but I made him take these pictures with me for the holidays and he was very cooperative, well, for the most part at least. Anyway, after we took the photos I realized that the christmas lights looked prettier at a different time in the day so I insisted that we go for round two the next day. Blake was less than thrilled about the idea, but he still did it anyway and even managed to crack a smile for a few pictures too.

5 New Year’s Eve Essentials:

1) A statement piece! I obviously recommend something gold, silver, sparkly, glittery or shiny! This could be your mini dress, glittery pumps, shiny clutch, sequin leggings, embellished skirt, jewelry, whatever you want!

2) Bold lipstick or a smokey eye! I love Urban Decay Matte Revolution After Dark & YSL Rouge Pur Couture! For a good smoke eye, try the Urban Decay ‘Naked Smokey’ Palette. If you really want to make your makeup glow, try the Benefit Watt’s Up Face Highlighter. I’m obsessed!

3) A killer pair of heels (like these) and then your Yosi Samra Foldable Flats for when you’re killer heels actually kill you.

4) Aquaphor to keep my lips moisturizes and ready for a New Years Eve kiss at midnight! Plus I just never the leave the house without it! Aquaphor is one of those products that I can’t live without!

5) And a bottle of champagne duh! The Chandon champagne bottle that i featured in today’s post is super cute and festive for the occasion!
