Holiday par-tay

Madewell City Grid coat, plaid dress, fleece-lined leggings, black oxfords, quartz pendant necklace — Cotton Cashmere Cat Hair

Of course, I couldn't tell you all about my Friendsmas party and not show you my party outfit! ;) I actually wore this outfit all day. Chris and I first stopped by a little Christmas market, then we ran some errands (we needed some last-minute items for the party), and then we prepared and hosted the party! It was such a gorgeous day; it was even warm enough for me to remove my coat for a few shots. 

For my party look, I knew I wanted to wear my new plaid dress (which happens to be the same exact one owned by Taylor Swift). Once I put together the collage for my November budget, I planned on wearing all of the pieces together—and don't they look amazing together?! I am in love with this outfit! I finished the look with my shiny black oxfords. They didn't bother me all day, likely because of my tights, but I call that a success nonetheless! ;) I'm a huge fan of the contrast between the matte tights and almost patent oxfords.
