Friend Friday: Holiday Rockin

The FBFF questions for this week is all about how you rock the holiday season.

1. Which holiday party are you looking forward to attending this year?

I don’t have a particular party that I am looking forward to. There are a lot of different events that I am attending, from comedy shows, to cocktail parties, girls night outs and noshing, drinking and fun at my favorite joints.

So, I am looking forward to it all.

2. What is your go-to holiday party outfit?

Believe it or not most of my holiday time is spent relatively casually.

I like to either host a party at my flat (which I haven’t done in forever ;-( and need to change that) or I am out at either my favorite Indian restaurant or out dancing and just having fun.

So it’s jeans, sweaters, leggings and boots unless its a themed event like the red dress party I went to last week.

With my Girls!

 As you can see, I rarely follow the rules! (dress is Norma Kamali for Walmart)

3. Do you go dressed in something that would be impractical to wear at any other time of the year?

I don’t do impractical. I live in Chicago. It’s cold and snowy and the sidewalks are slippery. I just don’t put myself in crazy situations for fashion. And I don’t like to be uncomfortable.

If I am wearing something that I have to fuss with, it takes away from my fun and nothing gets in the way of my fun!

4. If you are going to a house-party what gift will you bring to the host/hostess?

It depends on the host and the theme of the party. So, I am going to a cocktail party tomorrow and I know the host loves wine, so I am taking something wine related.

If I am going to a party and I know that the host collects something in particular or the theme calls for it, I will gift accordingly.

Side rant: There is nothing worse or ruder than folks showing up empty handed, I don’t care what time of year it is. I show my appreciation for the invite with a little something that says thank you.

5. If you could buy only one trendy piece to update your holiday party wardrobe, what would you get this year?

For the last couple of days, I have been spending way too much time in my closet because I don’t have that perfect sweater that I feel I need right now. One that is long enough to cover my tush but is not bulky, so that’s currently on my hit list.

Happy Friday!
