Sweater || Pants || Heels || Beanie || Handbag
Red and Green will always be the top color combo during Christmas time, but sometimes it’s fun to steer towards the less traditional. The shades of blue and navy are by far my favorite color family and it’s very apparent when you look in my closet, apartment, and even holiday décor. This year, our Christmas tree will be decked out with navy and silver ornaments to match the rest of our NYC apartment.
This post was originally going to be about all of the gorgeous blue and white Christmas decorations in stores this year, but I realized that I’m probably one of the few people out there that hasn’t actually finished (or begun) decorating for the season. This weekend is forecasted to be rainy and cold, but the perfect time to sip hot chocolate as we set up the Christmas tree. A blue and white Christmas also extends to our tableware. On Thanksgiving, we debuted all of the Italian Blue Spode pieces we received from our wedding. I couldn’t be more in love! Even though the motif isn’t Christmas at all, it made for a lovely festive spread that I can’t wait to use again. If you love it as much as I do, be sure to shop my favorite picks down below.
Keeping up with the blue theme, how gorgeous is the shade of blue on this turtleneck sweater from J. Crew Factory. Normally, I tend to steer away from turtlenecks in general, but this color really caught my eye and I just had to go for it. It’s a happy, but not overwhelming, pop of color on a cold New York City morning. The quality is all there and makes for a great addition to a much needed sweater rotation. Easily keep the look crisp and clean with this pair of black slim-fit pants from J. Crew and structured bag from ASOS. The J. Crew beanie, apart from keeping my head warm, is just a fun little accent to an other wise put-together outfit.
Love from NYC,
