Lined with Gold

(Sweater/Skirt/Necklace - Forever 21  | Boots - Franco Sarto | Clutch - Deux Lux)
Seasons Greetings! It's only been a week since my last post and it has seemed like forever. My sincere apologies, been overwhelmed with last minute Christmas shopping and attending family holiday festivities for the past week! But now I am here with this conservative yet edgy, budget holiday outfit. Aside from the shoes and the clutch, you can snag this outfit at your local Forever 21 for under $50. Cause personally, I know that our wallets have nearly been sucked dry due to Christmas Gifting! However, we still need swanky outfits for our gatherings. Necklace was about $7, Sweater was like $20, and Skirt was a spanking $16 = $43! For those girls that like a bit of boyish edge to your outfits, I decided to pair this outfit with boots instead of heels with a bit of my black sock peeping out. I decided to play with gold accessories because the sweater has gold thread knitted into it ( but can't see it here). Gold lining is perfect for the holiday spirit! This layered necklace with green gems adds a classy feminine feel to the look. Happy Holidays!

Oh, and here is more music for the soul <3

    I love your necklace! It's really beautiful...
    The sweater is nice... but isn't it cold outside? Or is it that nice in California! Awww~ (:

    Oh wow, so that's 23 degrees Celsius... (I had to google it to convert it to Celsius... Am I...dumb?! (; )
    So it's almost like an early-summer day... is there winter in california as well? o:
    Wow, I wish I would live in a city like this... here it is like 50 degrees Fahrenheit and that's VERY warm for a winter season...
    So, enought blabbering about weather and on to the important stuff: I love Hello Kitty as well! ♥ hehe~
