A Touch of Velvet, Plaid and Sparkle

It's crunch time! In other words, time to break out all the holiday essentials, such as plaid, velvet, and anything with sparkle before the holidays are gone in the blink of an eye! I've been wearing all of these holiday staples non-stop lately, but with this look, I've combined all three for the perfect holiday trifecta!

My favorite part of this look would most likely be my plaid shoes from Talbot's. Not only are these shoes plaid, but they also feature faux fur pom poms, which just pushes them over the top in my opinion! I'm a sucker for plaid shoes and my collection is definitely growing! I know that the window in which one can wear these types of shoes is rather small, but I do actually get a lot of use out of them, not to mention heaps of enjoyment!

Last of all, in my perfect holiday trifecta of an ensemble, are my velvet top and my new necklace from Rocksbox. Rocksbox has sent me a lot of beautiful pieces of jewelry over the last few months, but this necklace is probably at the top of my list. Plus, when I saw that my Rocksbox stylist included it in my set for this month, the timing could not have been more perfect because the green jewel tones of the necklace go with all of my plaid for the holidays!
