My pals @talbotsofficial invited me in for a sneak peek of their December Collection, and oh my stars… it is FESTIVE PERFECTION. 🎄✨
From cozy textures and classic plaids to shimmering golds and holiday-ready dresses, I fell instantly in love.

And because Mariah Carey is belting “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” it only felt right to lean into the goodness. Honestly… how do you pick a favorite when every look is this gorgeous?!

Don’t sleep on this one!
My OOTD today is this great pair of viral Walmart pants that I own in 3 prints/colors! They’re under $17 and have been restocked several times, but they won’t last forever! I paired them with a shorter, fitted tee (order a size up) for a modern look, and finished off with my favorite Allbirds sneakers and a statement necklace from Baublebar, along with simple hoop earrings.

It’s an elegant, comfortable go-to for holiday dinners, concerts, or any night you want to feel a little extra.

I'm in love with these foiled indigo ankle jeans paired with patent Mary Janes and a Fair Isle sweater in rich colors with a flannel plaid button up shirt underneath. The suede shoulder bag and pearl earring are the perfect accessories! This look would be perfect for a holiday season lunch with the girls or casual neighborhood party.

✨ Mixing high & low is my favorite styling trick! ✨

This outfit does just that—pairing a luxe silk scarf (so versatile: tie it on a bag, in your hair, or around your neck like I did!) with a crazy-soft short sleeve cardigan and polished wide-leg denim. The cardigan is a layering dream—wear it buttoned or open over a cami or tee for year-round style.

I finished things off with metallic mary janes for a little sparkle—and voilà, an outfit that’s equal parts practical, polished, and fun. ✨
