The day has finally come…I’m so excited to share the Gibson x Glam Holiday Collection with you! You may recall, my friends at Gibson invited nine influencers to help create a namesake holiday piece, then flew us to LA to shoot the collection exclusively for Nordstrom! #bamwhat!
I discovered with the Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Collection just how much I love the entire design and production process, but nothing compares to sharing the final pieces with y’all! When creating my signature piece, I knew I wanted something equally sassy and classy, and easy to dress up or down. I wanted the cut to be modest, yet flattering, and the piece to work beyond just the holiday season.
And I think they nailed it!! Introducing, ‘The Cassie Sequin Tank’!!!
I mean hello, blush pink and sequins….could it be any more fun!? I love the double v-neck in front and back, for a little peek of skin, yet it’s completely bra-friendly. The fabric drapes beautifully and can be worn untucked, half-tucked, or fully-tucked, depending on the bottoms you pair it with.
I’ve paired it with jeans, but would tuck it into a pencil skirt or trousers for dressier events (I’m looking at you, work party!). Cropped pants, joggers, even a full tulle skirt…it would be darling with all of them! And don’t get me started with layering. Peeking out of a blazer? Yes ma’am!!
The sequins are small and exquisitely sewn, giving it a subtle pop of festive. Obviously I’ll wear it all holiday season (Christmas parties and New Years!), but the colors make it perfect for a fun night out year-round.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS, and it fully covers my bum. Size down if you want a closer fit, or opt for petite for shorter length.

I’m crazy for the pink, but you know we had to make it in black, too! I’d definitely consider the black a closet staple…so easy to pull out anytime you need a touch of pizzaz! And this silhouette never goes out of style.
For a dressier look, I went all black pairing the top with satin joggers (also part of the Gibson x Glam Holiday Collection!) and a pop of leopard.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing XS in the joggers, they’re true to size.

Just to show the versatility and numerous styling options, here are a few of my fellow Glam Squad friends wearing ‘The Cassie‘. (I still can’t believe I’m saying that!)

I am so flattered to be included on such an amazing project with these beautiful women! They are each so talented and hard-working, with strong voices and a passion for connecting with others. In a job where cattiness and competition can sometimes prevail, they are the epitome of kindness and community.
I’m thrilled to introduce you to their signature tops!
Ashley | Me | Erin | Mallory | Rachel | Tara | Sheaffer | Megan | Dede
The Sheaffer
A short-sleeve top with all-over lace and the sweetest ruffle trim on the arms and across the chest. So darling worn under a jacket, too! It’s a lot like Sheaffer…sweet and sassy!
Fit Tip: This top runs small for me, I needed to size up one.
The Mallory
Gorgeous like the girl, this long-sleeve velvet faux-wrap top has the style of a half-tuck, and longer in the back. I love the little snap to keep things closed. Wear it alone, or layer a cami for a peek of silk or lace.
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS
The Megan
The sweetest girl you’ll ever meet, Megan’s top is the same sequin fabric as my tank, but a flattering boatneck and three-quarter sleeve. The lower back makes it extra special.
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS
The Ashley
Yes ma’am…the collection includes sequin joggers! But before you raise an eyebrow, let me assure you they are the cutest holiday pant you’ll ever own!! So fun with sneakers, but classy with heels. And even better, they’re fully-lined with the softest cotton knit material, so they feel like pajamas! Trust my girl Ashley, and give these a try!
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS
The Erin
One of Mama Sugarplum’s favorite tops (she got a sneak peek of the collection…I’ll share more of that with you soon), Erin created the perfect lace top that’s festive and demure. The lace sleeves have a fun bell shape, and contrasting trim, and show just a touch of skin.
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS
The Dede
If you loved the Maroma Halter from the Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Collection, you’ll love Dede’s fun update with luxe velvet in three gorgeous colors! The material is stunning and it drapes beautifully…perfect for wearing untucked with skinny jeans, too. (It covers the bum.)
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS. But if you’re in-between, I’d size down.
The Rachel
Everyone needs a sassy camisole for holiday, and year-round. Rachel’s satin cami is silky, yet sturdy, and has a striking contrasting lace. Striking is the best word for Rachel, too, don’t you think?!
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS
The Tara
Oh my yes…Tara’s top gives me all the heart eyes! Luxe velvet in stunning holiday colors, with the sweetest ties on the shoulder. And of course, that flattering v-neck I love so much.
Fit Tip: True to size, I wear an XS, but I’d size down if you’re small-chested.
The Cassie
Okay, you saw mine already…but I couldn’t resist saying ‘The Cassie’ one more time! 😉
After shooting our own signature pieces, we couldn’t help swapping tops! I’m seriously crazy about each and every top in this collection (and those joggers!!!). But above all else, just so humbled to be included on a first-of-its-kind project like this!

The Gibson x Glam Holiday Collection includes our 9 signature pieces, plus several more you don’t want to miss! Tomorrow I’m styling several of these tops for you, plus sharing a few others from the Collection…like this flutter sleeve tee! Which came thisclose to being my signature piece. I’m absolutely crazy about it. (It also comes in velvet, find it here!)
I’ll show more of it tomorrow, but just know that its the same gorgeous sequin front, with a soft jersey back, and the cutest flutter sleeves.
Fit Tip: It’s true-to-size, I’m wearing XS
