HOLIDAY NOIRE: PT. 1

Zara blazer dress, Forever 21 Metallic over-the-knee boots, Zara long shiny earrings

Happy Monday and Happy Holidays! With Christmas and New Years' Eve upon us, I know everyone's social calendar is full of office parties, gift exchanges and winter weddings. I am excited to share a holiday lookbook to share outfit ideas with you. As much as I love color, all these looks have one thing in common, they're all black! Nothing is chicer than an all-black look. These can easily be recreated with pieces from your closet! I grabbed this Zara blazer dress as soon as I saw it. It's such a perfect piece to have in any closet. I paired them with these Forever 21 over the knee boots. Can you believe these boots are from Forever 21? You will not believe their shoe selection right now. I hate spending a lot on trendy pieces so I'm glad I lucked up and found these boots for under $50! They're also surprisingly comfortable considering the price. I initially found these Schutz booties on Shopbop and considered purchasing them but couldn't justify spending nearly $300 for boots I won't get much wear out of. Luckily the Forever 21 boots are nearly identical. 

All these looks were shot at the new Park Central Raleigh apartments in North Hills. I used to live in North Hills and let me tell you, these high rises are STUNNING. While we were shooting we would always stop and take in the gorgeous features and decor. At one point we asked if we could move into their model apartment. I can't wait for you all to see the rest of this amazing building. If you are moving to Raleigh you should definitely schedule a tour. I loved my time living in North Hills and Park Central has everything you need right downstairs!
