Tis the season! Are you starting to get overwhelmed with all of the holiday events popping up on your calendar? Work parties, to Ugly Sweater shindigs, to December weddings? Yup, a lot is going on right now — but I love it all!

I’m headed to a wedding this weekend in New Orleans, and I was informed that the bride and groom have a pretty laid back group of friends. Even though I still wanted to look fabulous, I knew showing up in a maxi dress or a gown was not going to be a fit for a wedding in this lively town.

Enter: this green velvet jumpsuit. I spotted it when I was shopping in Center City, and I immediately fell in love. It’s super comfortable but has a lot of fantastic cut-out details that are sure to wow anyone at your next party or wedding. I also already own a ton of holiday dresses, so it was nice to switch things up and opt for a jumpsuit this time. 

This stunning lariat necklace from Kendra Scott is the perfect little touch for this already festive ensemble. It’s an easy look to wear to your next winter wedding or dressy holiday party. The jumpsuit speaks for its own, so there’s no need to weigh it down with extra jewelry. Sadly I’ll likely have to switch to flats at the actual wedding because my knee is still messed up and I can’t walk on heels for too long, but since I’m long-legged enough (I’m 5’7″), the pants don’t drag on the floor.
