Christmas Eve Dress

Can you even believe that Christmas is a week from today? Since we are quickly approaching the holiday, I wanted to share this year’s Christmas Eve dress with you in today’s post. It has always been a tradition to get dressed up on Christmas Eve and this emerald green dress might just be my favorite Christmas Eve dress yet.

Dress: J.Crew | Heels: C.Wonder | Clutch | Earrings: Sheila Fajl | Lipstick: Praline Rose

I have always looked forward to getting dressed up for Christmas Eve and going to church. It is definitely one of my favorite Christmas traditions! I started looking for a dress on Black Friday and ordered this gorgeous embellished tulle dress with polka dots (it’s already sold out but this is the skirt version). I couldn’t wait for it to arrive because I knew it was going to be perfect! After a little delay in shipping, it finally arrived and when I tried it on, it was SO short. I could not believe it! I’ve been having serious issues with the length of dresses lately. I went back on to J.Crew’s website and noticed that this dress was still available (and on sale!) in a tall.

Thankfully the fit was perfect. But I still feel like a tall should have been longer on me (I’m 5’8 for reference). But the color, lace details, bell sleeves in this dress are all perfect! As for accessories, I decided to play up the gold with a gold clutch, my go-to gold hoop earrings and these black suede pumps with a gold heel. These shoes are one of my favorites and were a C.Wonder find a few years ago. Does anyone else miss C.Wonder as much as me?! I guess you can still shop them at QVC, but it’s not the same.

I wanted to comment quickly on my lipstick in today’s post because it is one of my newest obsessions! My cousin’s wife sells Lipsense and decided to try a few colors. I have to say that I was skeptical. But it truly does stay on all day — through coffee in the morning, lunch and water all day long, it really is long lasting. I have been wearing this shade almost everyday since I got it. It’s a great neutral that has a little color. I also bought the Blu Red and it’s the perfect shade of red for Christmas. Anyways, if you are interested in giving Lipsense a try, I’ve linked her information above and here and you can message her.

Thanks so much for reading, friends! I hope you all have a great start to the week!
