SANTA BABY

 
With the biggest holiday just days away, some, ok most of us are probably still scrambling to get our Christmas shopping done in time. Between fighting your way through the desperate crowds, planning Christmas day lunch and wrapping gifts, finding time to give your outfit for the day any thought is a task in itself.
 
Don't worry, if you're like most of us and are pressed for time this Christmas, we've put together an outfit that ticks all the Christmas boxes.

...

It's not Christmas without carols, baubles and tartan of course! If you're struggling to make your Christmas day outfit more 'Chrismassy' just add a tartan piece whether it be a scarf, skirt or a top. Living in Australia, the festive season is much warmer, so a soft cotton top like this is definitely alot more B.O. (body odour!) friendly than a big cozy sweater.

Nothing says Christmas more than some glitzy bling. The 25th of December is probably one of the days you can pull out all the stops, so why not go big and loud?! This has fast become our party necklace pick of the year. There's enough bling to deck out Santa's sleigh, but the pearls do add a delicate touch to the piece and rest of the outfit.

    1. Yep! Scarves and flannels aren't really an option for us here where it gets up to 40 degrees on Christmas day, so a top like this a the perfect solution!

    1. You can definitely put on some tights and change up the top for a longer tartan shirt

  16. That is such a cute little skirt! I think I need to pop into Jeanswest next time I'm passing and see if they have it in my size! :)

    I like the statement necklace too - anything with a bit of extra sparkle works so well over Christmas! :)
