Last week I purchased the following garments: Gap I'm not entirely sold on these cords. I also have my eye on a pair from L.L. Bean, these may get returned. Style Mint Regardless of which pair of red cords I end up keeping I'm loving the idea of wearing them with this teal sweater, I'm thinking "Hello Family Christmas Eve Outfit!" Banana Republic I had my eye on this dress for a while and when it went on sale I snatched it up quick. I see this for work, for dinners out, for girls' night, and is a contender for the office holiday party in December. Banana Republic And this lacy shirt will add some nice texture and intrigue to more casual all-black outfits this coming winter. I REALLY like how they styled this in the pick w/ the collared shirt and statement necklace. I also see this working over a chambray shirt OR a striped long-sleeved tee. Overall, I've decided to lean toward black n' white ensembles for dressier holi...
