Black & Chic Holiday Look
I LOVE this ALL BLACK ensemble! These are literally pulled pieces out of my closet that have been in there for years. I added in some new baubles from Baublebar, a Holiday RED LIP and Voila! Black & Chic! L-O-V-E!!! Stay tuned as you will see this look in a video, soon.
A few of the pieces are oldies, but goodies and like always, I will indicate what is old and give you options to recreate this look for yourself. All these pieces are black staples that every chic & classy gal needs in her wardrobe. By the way, have you watched my All Things Black Video, where I talk about BLACK basics every lady needs to own- if not, check it out! I also have one on NUDE Items Every Gal Needs.
Can I chat for a moment on leggings?
In my opinion there are 2 type of leggings every girl needs. They don’t have to be faux leather but I would recommend at least one pair in your arsenal. One of those pair of leather leggings needs to cover the bum! Leggings that cover will go great with your tunics, as well as longer sweaters. My favorite faux leather legging for this purpose, are by Spanx . I also like the Express legging, which you can see me wearing in this blog post, here and this video. But I also believe having a pair (or two) of leggings that can be worn like pants. That means that your bum can be shown partially or otherwise. You can see that in the outfit I am wearing, my backside is only partially covered. The two leggings that I own for this purpose are here and here. I also have the second pair (Bar iii) in the Black Currant color. I love the back pocket detail these leggings offer.
Now let’s talk Baubles ….
I recently purchased several ‘Holiday – Cocktail’ inspired earrings to go with my party outfits. I will be sharing those pieces in my upcoming ‘Holiday Party Outfit’s Tips + LookBook Video’. Watch for that video to come later next week and make sure that you are subscribed to my YouTube Channel as well as here (My Blog).

10/31/2018Hi, Tracy!
I have recently “discovered” you on YouTube and have been enjoying all the videos. I am a younger mother of 4, working mom, and a student. I love every aspect of my life, but get overwhelmed at times. I am also a girly girl, who enjoys makeup and fashion. Your hints on organization, basics, and making things work for me has been a huge help. I would love to see a video of how you take care of laundry in your house, including who does what. In addition, I have always struggled with making my black colored clothes look good after the wash. I have seen your video on everything black and thought you must have a good advice on that. Can’t wait until your next video!
