Que Bella – Snow Mint

Husband had another work Christmas party this past weekend so I was excited to get dressed up again. I originally wanted to wear the Chandelier Sweatshirt but Husband was critical of it because it was a sweatshirt. “Oh no. No no no. Um…yeah…no. It’s a sweatshirt.” Ok then, you’ve made your point.

So I chose an all J Crew ensemble in light colors.
J Crew Cashmere Tee in Snow, J Crew Sterling Skirt in Sheer Mint, J Crew Collection Etta Snakeskin Cap Toe Pump, J Crew Grande Crystal Drop Necklace

I found the Etta’s on ebay for a great deal. 

I added my Tipped Gray Lexington Blazer to blend with the lighter colors I was wearing.

Waiting on Husband…tick tock, tick tock. You can’t really tell but I used my new Urban Decay Naked3 Palette. The last color reminds me of Black Cherry. I usually keep a neutral face so it’s nice to have a few more options in this little palette with some beautiful rosy neutrals. 

As it turns out, the Chandelier Sweatshirt worn with cords or jeans would have fit right in with what all the other ladies were wearing. Embellished on top and jeans or leggings on bottom. Not to say I didn’t love my outfit because I did. I didn’t feel uncomfortable being a little over-dressed either as I felt great and Husband loved it!

I can’t believe Christmas is almost here. I have not finished my shopping and will have to run around here and there all week and spend the weekend wrapping everything. I did wrap a few gifts with my new ribbon and paper from The Container Store. They come out with some beautiful wrapping every year!

Have a Great Day! Thanks for visiting!

      Oh I'd love it to WMM – you must git it!

      WMM – Tabitha is right. You must get that tee. The color really does remind me of freshly fallen Snow. On an old post from Dani, I realized I needed basic colors in the Cashmere Tees – Black, Blue, and White. I never regretted it for a second.

      Oh and I forgot to mention – I just ordered the naked 3 – I love the colours! You look great in them!

    Bought the short sleeve tee and the cardigan in snow last week! Also picked up the Naked3 with a $15 off coupon from Sephora and LOVE it. I thought Naked2 was amazing but this new one is my definite favorite! Super cute outfit and I agree–it's fun to be the best dressed at a party.

      Danielle – I am contemplating the S/S tee in Snow now. They are so easy to reach for and wear.

    Gorgeous outfit, Audrey…the mint is beautiful! Isn't it awesome that we can wear cashmere this year??

      Thanks Pam! I hope the cooler weather stays a little longer as I have a lot more Cashmere to wear!

    Oooh, I love these soft pastels for a party, so, so gorgeous. Your makeup looks amazing too! One of these days I'll splurge for a Naked.

      ShopWithM – Thank you! I like the other two Naked palettes but don't have them. I am so glad I waited for this one.

    Audrey you are nailing your party outfits this Christmas! Another one that I absolutely love. You are looking gorgeous, and that colour palette is perfect on you, so festive too.

    You look gorgeous! I have the same skirt in this light mint color. It's a nice change of pace to wear light pastels for the holidays.

    You're so polished and elegant this holiday season. truly impeccable. Ok, now I'm ordering a knockoff of that necklace. It looks divine on you.
