Though I’m the kind of person who’s more likely to be found scrolling through Tumblr eating popcorn on a Friday night, the December holiday season brings around the inevitable dilemma of dressing up for social gatherings and the annual ‘party month’.
I’m usually one to keep it simple, but once in a while I find myself online window shopping at Net-A-Porter, then one thing leads to another and I’m suddenly having to restrain myself hitting the order button on the Burberry or Harrods websites – oh the perils of online shopping when your bank account doesn’t reflect your inner fashion taste.
So feel free to indulge with me and lust of these pretties I’ve picked out above as show-stopping party pieces (which I’ll never be able to own *sobs*)
It’s December, we’re less than a month away from Christmas, and the festive spirit has hit me full on in the face! Now I’d like to think you guys are super organised and already have your decorations up, but just in case you’re after a few more ideas and/or are scrambling to find some bits and pieces to put up. When it comes to Christmas decor inspiration I’m filling my wish list with items from two ends of the festive spectrum.
On one hand is the super sleek, scandi-inspired minimal Christmas look, which is much more about clean lines than overloading your home with trinkets. Think delicate lights, barely there Winter trees, ornaments with natural wood finishes, and a colour palette of greys, whites, metallics and rose golds.
It’s a great theme to stick to if you’re looking for money saving options as it places focus on styling than the ornaments themselves.
As great as the minimal them is, there’s something about sticking with a truly traditional format that just reminds me of home. With this theme you’ll want to take a the opposite approach to the minimalist style and go for luxurious details in warm and cosy reds and golds. This theme would, of course, be nothing without beautiful evergreen wreaths and trees dripping with baubles, bows and winter berries.
Which theme will you be sticking with this year?
Have you sorted your decor for the Holiday season yet?
A little Sunday morning inspiration and moodboard to infuse you with Holiday spirit! It’s been an insanely busy two weeks here on the blog, daily posts are hard, so I doff my cap to those who do this all year round *slow claps*.
I’ve put together a handy list of all of my festive posts below for you to catch up on =) let me know what your faves were too!
