I had a holiday party earlier this week and I had no idea what I was going to wear. My hair was dirty, my self tanner was half gone, and 20 minutes before I needed to leave I didn’t have an ounce of makeup on. Enter: my easy holiday outfit formula!

A full black head to toe look was just the trick. The sweater and pants covered my fading tan, but the pop of metallic heels made it festive chic. I balanced the heels with larger hoops and a metallic clutch. My makeup was super minimal, but a bold red lip make it all look intentional. A low bun and my hair wax stick hid my dirty hair + a few spritzes of Empressa was the perfect finishing fragrance.
