what to wear

So, the holidays bring a lot of situations where we have to dress in something other than our standard jeans, top and flats uniform.

For me, it's not so much office holiday parties, but family affairs. 

This year, Zach's distant cousin (don't ask, for God's sake, don't ask) Tyler and his new bride Ashley are throwing a "we got married, we bought a house" casual cocktail party for adults only. 

Right.

Color me confused as hell-o as to what I am supposed to wear. I started to panic (shock!) that I wouldn't have the right thing to wear because I stock up on summer dresses, and winter ones, not so much. 

So I browsed about five or six of my usual online haunts and after coming up with nothing, I finally just went back to Anthropologie because I can always find SOMETHING I love on their website.

But it's usually not cheap. 

BUT NOT TODAY!

I found a dress, regularly priced at $138 that I had wanted on sale for $30-- and tights for $16!

Yup, I think these'll be pretty darn cute together, with my Jessica Simpson Collection Capry boots (in new bomber espresso). And for quite a good price, too. 

And that's one less thing I have to think about.
