Having a boyfriend means meeting his family and spending time with them especially on the holidays. I like that my family often celebrates Christmas on Christmas Eve and we open gifts at midnight. While in the other hand my boyfriend celebrates on Christmas day. This works out so well because instead of jumping from place to place we can actually spend quality time with each other's families. I am Puerto Rican and my boyfriend is Mexican which is great because we get to enjoy two similar but very different cultures, especially when it comes to food! I have had this beautiful dress in my closet for quite a while and was waiting for the right time to wear it and that time had arrived. First of all this dress is extremely comfortable being a silk dress with a cotton pull over. The delicate flower-like cut outs made it very sweet and feminine. Now the tricky part was to accessorize. Since the dress is grey and a very light dusty pink I was not sure of what I could pair it with. The beautiful J Crew necklace was a perfect start; the amount of bling is perfect while the cut of the necklace is a classic one that sits at the collar bone. I was in a dilemma about wearing these unusual tights as oppose to a basic black. I found that black made this look too dark and while I was unsure of these dusty pink tights I knew they worked better. When I added this purple/grey toned metallic pointy flats it all made sense! Like I often say: Don’t be afraid of trying something new because like I was unsure of wearing these tights, turns out they were exactly what I needed. I wanted to be dressier so since I already had straight hair from the day before, It was a piece of cake to curl it. I kept my makeup simple with some concealer, blush, mascara, and a coral lipstick. By the way my boyfriend and I did not try to match in these last two looks, but it all worked out wonderful.
