Hi,
How are you doing? I hope you had a great weekend? I am starting the week off in this Pleated Velvet Maxi dress by Asos. The holiday season is almost upon us and I will be highlighting outfits that you can wear for the upcoming holiday parties. My blue maxi dress which is available for $87 is a perfect holiday party dress. I love that it is made with velvet which is a perfect fabric for Fall.
I styled my maxi dress with the gorgeous gold Sade bag by F &W Style. The Sade bag is the newest bag from this luxury designer hang bag line. The Sade bag is a perfect mini bag that can go from day to night. It also comes in other gorgeous like red, orange, purple & gray. You can own this hand woven African fabric bag by supporting the Kick Starter Campaign for this bag. For a pledge of $180 or more you will get this bag in any of the colors I mentioned above. You will be supporting a small business and also get a fabulous bag too. The Kick Starter ends on Wednesday November 29th.

The Sade bag is made with Aso-oke, a fabric worn by royalty in the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria. I love the leather clasp, straps and handle. It gives it a modern twist. You can wear the Sade with or without the strap like I did. Each F & W bag is lined with pink fabric, I love the pop of color.
I am wearing imPRESS stick-on nails.
My earrings are by Baublebar. I love all things Baublebar. They carry a variety of jewelry pieces for everyday wear and special occasions. I am wearing the Sequin Ball Drop Earrings which is available for $38. It is also available in blue. It is the perfect earrings for the holiday season.
Sizing
I am wearing a size 6, my regular size from Asos in dresses. I typically go up a size for dresses. I am wearing 3.5 inch heels and my maxi still hits the floor to give you an idea of the length of the dress.
Style Tip
I am wearing a low plunge bra with this maxi dress. It is available for $32 in black and nude. It is the the best option if you want to show a bit of cleavage in this kimono style dress. You can also choose to wear a bandeau underneath for a modest look.
Thank you so much for reading, enjoy the rest of your day!
What a perfect way to begin this holiday season.. I love love love the vibrant blue and texture of the dress. Also the addition of orange accessories definitely makes this look stand out.
