SOW:Holly Jolly

With Thanksgiving over its time to get with the red, the green and the sparkle!  If you're not attending an 'Ugly Sweater' Christmas party, you're going to want a look that is festive, sophisticated and that sets you apart.  Cue this weeks SOW:The Holly Jolly

The Holly Jolly is a tight weave medium to heavy weight skirt.  Go for a Pencil, this sturdy structure is going to keep you nice and tight even after the buffet at your company work party!!
SOW:Holly Jolly
I went with  the color scheme in this skirt to dress the Holly Jolly.  Nude blouse with a festive bow is a feminine touch to this look.  I picked a draped red coat to go over top.  Pick nude or red pumps with this skirt, whichever you're in the mood for.

Reference my Friday blog: 'It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas' for different looks!

Bring on the Christmas parties and egg nog!

Regular Price: $180
SOW Price: $144

"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas..."

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving with your families!  Black Friday officially marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season so lets waste no time in getting your Christmas get up ready!

When I think Black Friday, I think department stores so I headed to Belk for this look!

I love the Holly Jolly for the holidays.  Here I have it Christmas'd out with this green blouse.  Tuck it in or leave it out, depending on your style.

You can't go wrong with a cream sweater.  This cowl neck cashmere makes this look a Christmas classic.
 A nude blouse is a subdued take with this skirt.  It brings out the nude in the base of the Holly Jolly making the red really pop.
 Here I tried it in brown.  With brown boots, I'd say you have yourself a nice little outfit!
The Holly Jolly is a well structured woven with the red holly patterns woven in.  This is a great skirt in a Pencil, it really keeps you in!
