If you've read my blog for long or if you follow me on
Instagram then you already know that I love a good jumpsuit. I believe the little black jumpsuit can replace the little black dress in many instances and can even be a bit more chic because it's unexpected. So when I was on a recent shopping trip to the
Shops Around Lenox looking for the perfect "Jingle Bell Frock", I stopped by
American Apparel and I knew
this velvet jumpsuit would be the perfect addition to my holiday wardrobe the minute I laid eyes on it! A black velvet jumpsuit is a little bit retro, a little bit glam and a lot of fun, don't you think? It's perfect for just about any holiday parties I have on my calendar ~ from Christmas to New Years ~ and would also work for a nice dinner out with the Hubs or even an evening winter wedding. To give my
jumpsuit a Christmas vibe for a recent party I added
red plaid pumps,
sparkly statement earrings, a
long gold necklace and of course, a
red lip! To keep things interesting, instead of carrying the expected black or red clutch I paired my outfit with a
camo crossbody bag which I have become
obsessed with since I got it at
Tootsies during the same shopping trip.
