Stlye-ized (Blog Edition)- 5 Holiday Inspired Looks :-)

I hope you divas are having a fantastic holiday season so far.

I've gotten some requests to do a holiday Style-ized video as well as a New Year's eve video, well I have some good news and bad news. I actually recorded a Style-ized video inspired by holiday colors and edited the video for a day and a half; the bad news is there were technical difficulties right at the end of the editing process and all the files were lost (needless to say... I was very upset!!!). Hubby did his best to get them back, but some files were retrievable while others were not, so I decided to just scrap the video.

Instead of just scrapping the whole project and allowing the time that I invested into the video to be a complete waist, I decided to at least share the looks right here, so hopefully it will still be somewhat helpful. I'm still going to record a Style-ized New Year's Eve edition video (let's just say a prayer that it all comes together lol :-).

Anyway here are my 5 holiday looks. For me, holiday fashion is inspired by the holiday colors of rich reds, greens, golds, and even cream/ white. All of the outfits below were inspired by these colors. If you are a diva with somewhat of a well rounded wardrobe, I don't necessarily believe that for the holidays you should buy anything specifically for the holiday season (unless you want to), but I think that it is a great time to really exercise your creative muscle for mixing and matching items that you already own.

I find that during the holidays, you can definitely get away with being a bit bolder and braver with color without anyone batting an eye than any other time during year. I say now is the time to bring out anything glitzy, sparkly, and/or bold from the back of your closet and get your moneys worth out of it. If anyone has anything to say, just tell them, "Hey, I'm getting into the holiday spirit...what's your excuse?" lol.
