Over the weekend I aimlessly walked around the city. I sat in Washington Square Park for a while listening to a pianist play. It must of have been fate as he played my favorite classical music song, Clair de Lune. It is a beautiful, emotional, and romantic piece. Even if you do not like classical music you can appreciate this song. Anyway, after listening to him play for a while I walked over to the other side of the park to listened to a jazz trio. They were playing Christmas music, which really put me in the holiday spirit. I decided to mosey on over after a while to the West Village to look at Christmas decorations. People are slowly starting to put theirs up, but all of the store fronts are filled with lights, trees, garland, and  bows. The best time fo the year!

The other day I was reading The Skimm for my daily dose of news when I saw a quote from a scientist stating that all glitter should be banned. Well I’ve never heard such blasphemy. Glitter is life. I grew up wearing costumes for dance recitals and competitions, I basically bathed in glitter. As an adult I’d roll around in it right now if I could. I mean first glitter then what? sequins? I will not stand for it.  What is New Year’s Eve without a glitter dress on? This season I plan on wearing anything that shines. With many parties to attend to, we have quit a few chances to wear fun holiday dresses that sparkle.

The holiday season is in full swing and the holly jolly celebrations are rolling in. Sometimes they are planned in advanced and sometimes you are invited last minute. When this happens I like to have something in my closet that I know can fit any type of soirée. As the new LBD, a jumpsuit is the perfect go-to holiday look. Always on trend, easy to wear, and can be dressed up or down.
