Me and Mr. Jones

'Tis the season for sequins and sparkle! This year we will be spending NYE in California and I am SO EXCITED! Just the thought of not having to plan for frigid weather while wearing a cute outfit is a major plus. If you are going to be somewhere that is really cold to ring in the new year, no worries! You can always add a chic faux fur jacket, faux fur stole, or a nice blanket scarf to your look to stay warm.

I've worn sequin body-con sequin dresses in the past, but this year I'm really digging the hemline of this Dress the Population frock! It's funny because I actually avoided mid-length hems up until now, thinking that they wouldn't flatter someone who is shorter (5'5" on a good day). I have to say, I was absolutely wrong and I love the way this dress fits! NYE is definitely the perfect occasion to rock a body-con dress and this long sleeve version would be great for colder weather!

For my hair, I wanted to try something different and create an old Hollywood look. To do this, I used the same 1" curling iron as always and wrapped my hair around the curling iron toward the front of my face (usually I wrap it away from my face). After you curl all of your hair, gently brush through the curls to blend them together and make sure to finish it with a good hairspray! There is a great tutorial for this look here!

I hope your week is off to a great start, thanks for stopping by!
