The holiday season has a way of filling up quickly. Between Thanksgiving gatherings, Christmas celebrations, friend parties, New Year's Eve plans, and all the little outings in between, there are plenty of reasons to get dressed up. And let's not forget the night before Thanksgiving... because you never know who you'll run into at the bar! There are also plenty of days when you just need something cute to throw on while running errands because errands can easily turn into a casual dinner out. Rather than waiting for the day before, or worse- the night of, to figure out what to wear, I always recommend getting a head start.

I've put together this year's Holiday Style Guide with looks for every occasion on your calendar, from festive outfits for Thanksgiving and Christmas to party-ready looks for NYE and those fun holiday get-togethers with friends. I've also included a Holidays in Motion section, featuring polished and comfortable looks for the days when you're out and about checking things off your holiday to-do list; because looking put together shouldn't be reserved just for the big events. Because looking put together shouldn't be reserved for the big events. The guide features dressy and casual looks for each function to appeal to whatever type of event you're RSVP'd for.

My advice? Start shopping now. A friend recommended this book to me over the summer, Manifest Like a Mother. It's a great read for any mom, but in the book the author talks a lot about doing things so your future self thanks you. It's something that really stuck with me and I find myself saying 'future self thanks you' whenever I tackle something that I might normally want to push off until later. This often happens late at night when I'm prepping my daughter's lunch instead of waiting for the next morning. Holiday events are often cyclical- you know that your aunt always hosts a party on the first Friday of December or that your girlfriends have a favorite things party. What I'm saying here, is that the holidays are often a time you really can predict what looks you'll need.

So before it gets too busy, utilize this year's style guide to find the pieces you love and have a few go-to outfits ready before the invitations start rolling in. Your future self thanks you.
