Hi there! This is Star from Beauty & Bows 

and I'm thrilled to do a blog swap with Jordan on a holiday party outfit! For this outfit I mixed and matched items I already had to create a dressy and functional holiday look! This dress was purchased on sale last year from Dillards. I paired it with a thrifted black blazer, black belt from another shirt, polka dot tights from Gap, necklace from Francesca's, and clutch and flats from TJMaxx.  By adding a blazer I created layers to peel off if the party gets warm. My friends and I usually have a low-key gathering so flats seemed a more functional choice. I wanted to add some holiday sparkle to my outfit but without buying anything new, so I looked for items I already owned that had some glitz, like this clutch and shoes.

Good luck with planning your holiday look!!
