Holy wow, can you believe Christmas is this week?? Our first big party in the new house went off without a hitch Friday night! It was such a treat to celebrate the season with so many of our favorite people! Saturday was the first of many family get-togethers, and Sunday we went to the Dallas Symphony…so it’s safe to say we are in full-blown Griswald Christmas frenzy over here!
I’m just so happy to have the kids home from school, and spend good quality time with them…this is my favorite week of the year! Except I’ll be spending today doing my final online shopping, since it’s pretty much the cut-off to guarantee things by Christmas Eve. #lastminutemuch
Hands-down my best scarf purchase of the season…I just adore the navy, red and pink. Notice how it made a basic outfit of gray sweater and brown boots something special? It’s the perfect, affordable gift for any gal on your list…from mom to teachers.

The sweater dress is still going strong and in heavy rotation…except now I have to add tights on some days.

I hope these posts inspire you to create new combinations from your closet! The key isn’t to have more clothes, but to mix up what you do have in new and different ways. Except these leggings and this scarf, you need those. #trustme #enabler

I mean…you are just too freakin' cute ;).
Everything is cute! I had to return the beautiful pink, red and navy scarf. 🙁 It was so huge on me I just could see myself getting much use out of it. Maybe I was wearing it wrong because it doesn't swallow you up. Anyways- cute cute! Merry Christmas!!
Love it all!! Bummer that the navy and fuchsia scarf is no longer available. My gray booties finally arrived late last week. I wore them shopping on Saturday…only for a couple of hours. However, the comfort was not what I expected:(. Also just couldn't get my jeans to look right with them. But, I will try again. I have the Fair Isle sweater from Loft. I plan to wear it over the holidays. I am happy it runs big as I have added on a little fluff in the past year. That will be coming back off after the holidays!
I ordered the scarf as well and was surprised by how thick it was. I live in Minnesota so I wear scarves daily – just couldn't figure this one out! What is your secret for tying it – are you folding it in half??
I fold it in half or twist the front that's around my face so it's not so thick. I do wish it was a bit longer, but I love the colors so much I wear it anyway! 🙂
I love your style, but can you please help me out with some work appropriate outfits? What do you wear to work??!!
My office is fairly casual, so I can do dressed up denim any day..but in the warmer months I wear mostly skirts and dresses (and I show those outfits here, check my Style tab). In the winter, I add tights or wear black slacks most everyday! I've started working in more work-wear here (punny), and even have a {Work to Weekend} series!
I'm with Darcy…I'm struggling with this great scarf too. It's not just that it is thick but doesn't seem quite as long. Maybe I just have a thick neck..lol. I tucked the ends back through this last time I wore it which was better but I would definitely be interested in how you have it tied in the first picture! 🙂
I do wish the scarf were a bit thinner and longer, but I'm willing to overlook that because of the gorgeous colors! I typically just loop it around once, not really long enough to tie. The Sugarplum Style pics aren't always a true representation of how I tied or wore a scarf since I have to tweak it in order to show up in the picture without covering up everything else. 🙂 xo
What a great post right before packing for the holidays. Everything looks great on you!
Super list of packable capsule wardrobe. Quick question about the leggings How do the blackout leggings differ from the other Hue leggings Schaeffer of PTMT recommends? Have a Merry Christmas!
Thank you! The other Hue leggings are a lot longer, and not quite as thick and dark as these. Hope that helps!
I always drool in envy when I see your style posts….such wonderful clothes that I wish I could buy right now haha.
