Spend or Splurge

I must have some kind of magical powers or something, don't you think? I'm getting really good at disappearing into thin air! ;) 'Tis the "silly season" after all. And I'm going overseas next week, so its fast-tracked silly season on steroids for me. Anyway, whilst I've been shopping (more like window shopping because I've already blown my budget) online and instores, I've found a few perfect-for-party-season pieces. And since I'm not buying anything for myself anymore, I thought I would share it with all my readers - 'tis the season of spreading joy after all ;)...'tis also the season of legitimately getting away with wearing bright red, gold/silver, green or all 3 together - okay, may be not all 3 together but you know what I mean - of looking festive! So, whether its your end-of-year work party or a Christmas dinner with the family, it's all about being bright and bold but elegant. In my quest to find these perfect outfit, I came across styles for different kinds of fashionistas - the Spenders and the Splurgers! So, here's my very first compilation of a Spend or Splurge list...

The Dress:
Spend: Asos Lace Dress - $76.50
Splurge: Lover the Label Dress - $740



The Clutch:
Spend: Witchery Paris Sparkle Clutch - $89.99
Splurge: Jimmy Choo Candy Clutch in Champagne - $525


The Shoes:
Spend: Forever New Misty Diamante Platform - $89.99
Splurge: Peeptoe Miss Indulgence Heels with Swarovski Elements - $599
 The Jewelry:
Spend: Lovisa Crystal Chandelier - $29.99

Hope you find your inspiration in these! And no matter what you do, say or wear, I hope you enjoy the Holiday Season!!
