Holiday season 2020 - I think everyone has been doing their best, trying to find the silver linings in this hot mess of a year. I had two golden evenings that definitely made me smile and recognize the simpler most important things in life; spending quality time with the ones we love.

A small intimate dinner spent with my very small immediate family gave me the opportunity to wear these amazing faux leather wide leg trousers and this sparkly sweater that I had been waiting to find the right occasion for. The sweater actually is a bit longer, but I tucked it in, and used the cute tie belt as the belt through my trouser loops. This allowed a seamless look, not breaking up the dark colors and tones and really tying it together.. :). The sweater is great, and would also be adorable with jeans and booties for just cruising around on a Sunday afternoon, with nothing to do... as seems to be the case these days!

The trousers are big and willow-y and the faux leather is fun and hip. I definitely didn't feel like putting on anything tight or stretchy or anything of the sort. It's holiday dinner time! Time to eat. Big pockets on the trousers are a big plus, adding to the super cool factor. I added my traditional holiday red bag and traditional pumps I've had forever, specific for these occasions.

The earrings are worth a mention as they are gorgeous and the best holiday add-on - chandeliers with the right amount of sparkle and movement. They were a perfect match with my sweater and glammed everything up to the next level!
