Holiday Fashion Match-Up 5: Ruby
We saved the most festive (red) for last! This will be our last holiday fashion match-up, as the holiday season is almost upon us! Only 1 weekend left to finish out that holiday shopping and pick up a snazzy outfit for Christmas or New Year's Eve!
The Sunset Boulevard necklace and earrings set captures the deep reds of "ruby" in its garnet, cherry quartz, and Swarovski crystals, accented with black onyx.
Now for the Banana Republic outfit to go with it....
This Silk assymetrical dress in hearth red will beautifully compliment the cherry quartz in the Sunset Boulevard. To carry the black accents through the outfit, add the
Alexis ruched platform shoes in black. The slingback keeps them light and strappy, while the ruching compliments the gathering of the dress. Stay chic with the cute Kensington lady bag in black as a simple finish.
Now you're ready to party this holiday season in style! There is no excuse for looking frumpy!
That wraps it up for the Holiday Fashion series. However, our match-ups will return as the new season of clothes arrive in stores! Go out there and stock up on the great sales, and have a fabulous holiday season!
Love, your Feline Fashionistas!
(Tim Gunn eat your heart out!)

Snow-bound!
Well, it sure did snow a lot here in Michigan! We had close to 10 inches! We hoped that we would get a snow day here with our moms--what a great day to stay home and craft!--but apparently the hospital and the university don't have snow days.

Holiday Fashion Match-up 4: Onyx
Holiday Fashion Match-Up 4 is dedicated to the black and white look-- even with all the color this season, you still need something to wear to the Black and White ball!
Begin your look with the Sydney necklace and earrings set, in Black agate, Black onyx, and Freshwater pearls.
For the rest of the outfit, we again take you to Banana Republic, where we find inspiration for some of the pieces you see in our Etsy store.
We suggest the silk rose-print pleated strapless top to carry the circular black and white pattern of the necklace. If you don't have bold colors, go for bold patterns! Then pair the drapy top with the chic, fitted contour jackson wide-leg satin trim pant.
Now you're ready to pair that with the simple 'Arianna' ankle-strap sandal. Don't forget to carry your black Kensington canvas tote to complete the look!
If you're really clever, paint your toenails black with little modern-art-inspired white circles to carry the theme!
Now, what makes a more perfect gift for her than a complete outfit for that special holiday event? Not much, that's for sure!
Who knew cats could be such fashion-istas! Project Runway, here we come!
