12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS LOOK 8: REMIX OF CHRISTMAS PASS

On the 9th day of Christmas my fashion fairy gave to me....

A remix from Christmas Past

Last year I wore these sequin cigarette pants and they were a big hit. I wanted to show that fashion doesn't mean that you buy something new every year!!! So for this outfit we remix the sequin pants by adding a leather jacket and lace sweater with velvet bra.

I decided to let these pants shine as they are suppose to and kept everything plain.

Jacket: Dia & Co

Lace Sweater: Lorallette

Pants: Lane Bryant (they are from last year but here are some that are similar)

12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS LOOK 6: UGLY SWEATER W. FUN WITH FRIENDS

On the 6th day of Christmas my fashion fairy gave to me....

An ugly shirt for my ugly sweater party w. FWF

For the third year in a row, I attended the ugly sweater Christmas party thrown by Fun with Friends.

I always enjoy this party and it has become one of my holiday traditions to attend with my girl Camelia.

The best DJ ever...I come out for Taela Naomi every year

There is always great people, great dancing and a great DJ. This year we had three! One even came all the way from across the pond.

Because the night is filled with dancing, I decided to not do a sweater but a shirt in order to remain cool and keep dancing.

This shirt was simple but very festive. Paired with black sneakers and some breathable paint I was able to stay on the dance floor all night long.

FWF believes in philanthropy as well as fun! As well as a ugly sweater everyone donated a gift the owner of the club. She let the crowd now that FWF help her to reach her goal of 5,000 toys to give out to kids of parent who are incarcerated or on hard times.
Isn't that just amazing.

Top three ugly sweater...I really liked the one far right

Winner of the Ugly Sweater Contest 5 years in a row DAAAAAME!!!

Outside of a bartender with an attitude and the coat check girl trying to charge extra for my small book bag, (yep I tell you when your events are doing right and when they are doing wrong) the event was amazing.

This is such a great time and such a great crowd I will defiantly party with FWF for years to come.

12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS LOOK 4: BLACK & GOLD W. TRACY ELLIS ROSS COLLECTION

ON THE 4TH DAY OF CHRISTMAS MY FASHION FAIRY GAVE TO ME...

BLACK JUMPSUIT & GOLD QUILTED JACKET

Nothing says holiday like Black and Gold together. This year I paired my my gold quilted jacket with the new Tracy Ellis Ross Jumper from J.C. Penny.
This jumper is strapless and very roomy. It moves a lot and works well for my height. Also I love how roomy it was. It gave me the ability to show off what I like and hide what I didn't.

I paired the jumper with black and gold jewelry and a very red holiday lipstick. Also, my white and gold clutch from two seasons ago has made a comeback this year.

This is one of the easiest outfits I have every put together and the most fun. Thank you to JC Penny and Traci Ellis Ross for creating this fabulous collection

NEC Style out...Fashion Fairy in.

On the first day of Christmas my Fashion Fairy gave to me....

Thanksgiving and Chill-e Sweater

I love wearing a cozy knit sweater for Thanksgiving. This year I hosted at my house and I wanted to wear something comfortable but cute. (I am the style blogger of the family...have to live up to the hype).

This off the shoulder sweater was PERFECT!!! I wore it slightly off the shoulder and love that the sweater allowed for some versatility. The tall swede boots and leggings were a perfect match to keep the look comfy but cozy. I needed minimal makeup and jewelry for this look (don't want to look too done up) but make sure I added a little bling in my cocktail ring.

I had a great time this Thanksgiving and got a chance to really laugh with my family. This was a successful Thanksgiving outfit.

12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS DRESS 7: LBD

On the 7th day of Christmas my Fashion Fairy Gave to me...

Little Black Dress by Avenue

A little black dress will always be the staple dress for the holiday. When wearing a black dress, you want to add color to stop if from being dull. For the dress, we added a punch of color in the shoes.

As I was taking the photo I started to draw a small crowd which always worries me. I wonder what's the stares are about? After looking at the photos I understood why. The dotted dress and pompom shoes were perfect for a night on the town. Plus when they see a plus girl with a dress up to her knees the marvel at her confidence. Me....I didn't even notice. It was a beautiful yet simple dress

Add a sequins belt to add some texture and define the waist.

THATS ALL SHE NEEDS!!!

12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS DRESS 6: NOT SO UGLY SWEATER

On the 6th day of Christmas my Fashion Fairy gave to me....

Christmas sweater from Avenue

This year I attended the ugly sweater party thrown by FWF for the second year in a row. I love this party SO much. Its probably one of the most chill group of young black professional party groups I have been apart of and they throw AMAZING parties.

For my sweater I decided to wear my glasses and ears (just like my reindeer). For makeup, I kept is simple and plain so my sweater shine in all its un-uglyness.

Yes I said it....ya girl has gone body con (but just for the holiday). I don't wear bodycon (mostly because of the undergarments required to make it look good) but Simply Be makes a great bodycon for the over 24 women

12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS DRESS #3: RUFFLE & VELVET FROM ELOQUII

On the third day of Christmas my Fashion Fairy gave to me....

Emerald Velvet from Eloquii

Fashion Fairy has done it again with this dress. This dress had an amazing fit as soon as I put it on. I love the festive velvet top and the ruffles played up the dress in the best way. Great dress for the holiday or for a cold night out with friends. I added a thin gold belt to break up the green and kept it simple so the dress stood out.

A simple red lip was all that I needed to complete this look

The movement of the dress was what I love the most.

12 DRESSES OF CHRISTMAS: OUTFIT 2 @DIA&CO HOLIDAY PARTY

On the second day of Christmas my Fashion Fairy gave to me....

Glitter and off the Shoulder

I was very excited to attend my first Holiday Party with Dia&Co. Also I got to wear my second outfit in my 12 dresses of Christmas. No its not a dress but the Fashion Fairy wanted to show a little bit of glitter for the holiday. Sequin pants defiantly put me in the spirit of Holiday and I cant wait to wear my next Holiday outfit. Can I just say how great this off the shoulder sweater worked for me. This defiantly will be a repeat offender.

I had such a good time. I got a chance to meet with some of my blogger friends and meet the team of Dia&Co. If you didn't know, Dia&Co. is a subscription fashion box for the plus size woman. A box of fashionable items is curated by a stylist and shipped to your door step.

Here are some photos of the party...
