THE WEEKEND...

Somehow, between running around finishing last-minute Christmas shopping, cleaning house, baking, and running errands, I was able to attend to two Christmas Soirees this weekend.

Saturday evening we attend a casual Wine & Cheese party. "HERE'S WHAT I WORE." The black turtleneck is from Macy's and the black denim slacks are by Ralph Lauren.

The 'Flat-Terring' turquoise suede ballet flats are by Lilly and the darling scarf is by LWhelanDesigns. I wore my 'Oyster Perpetual' Rolex and my rollring wedding band by Cartier and also a pair of earring by Givenchy. My fragrance for the evening was 'Light Blue' by Dolce & Gabana.
I carried this cute pocketbook by Belvah, monogrammed in turquoise...
My gift for the hostess {hey y'all, it WAS a wine & cheese soiree}--a bottle of Fresh Market Christmas Merlot:)


I also carried a cheese tray...Stilton cheese with cranberries and Multi-Grain Savory Thin crackers.
Sunday evening we enjoyed a Christmas holiday dinner with friends. I wore pink 'Revas' by Tory Burch with black slacks, a pink turtleneck, and a black cashmere sweater throw. My belt is Circa 1971...a black leather belt with an elephant buckle {LOVE this belt}.
I'm hitting the ground running in a few hours, so I must get sleep!!! We are hosting a very casual dinner here at The Roost tonight. I'll be back with Christmas decos on Tuesday y'all! Have a blessed week!

    Eeewww, I always get excited when I see one of your 'this is what I wore' articles. Love both outfits but the pink/black is my favorite. Also, one other question and please answer: do you have a little sign on your property that says 'The Roost'? If not, you should. I love homes that are named. We once lived in an old English-type home named "Serenity Cottage".
