It’s just a little more than a week until christmas! I’m so excited. Spending the holidays with my family is something I’m always looking forward to. The women in our family like to get all dressed up for christmas, that’s why I like putting together christmas outfits during this time of the year.

With the US economy being in a recession, I thought I would create a beautiful christmas party outfit for budget savy fashionistas. You really don’t have to shell out hundreds or thousands of your hard-earned money to look chic and fabulous. Want proof? Take a look below. A complete festive outfit for affordable $184.60!

• DRESS: Bebe Tiered Silk Jeweled Neck Dress, $89.50 (SALE!)
• EARRINGS: Forever21 Coiled Teardrop Earrings, $3.80
• BRACELETS: Forever21 Fashion Bracelet Set, $5.80
• BAG: Forever21 Osiris Clutch, $19.80
• SHOES: Rocawear Margaretta (Gold) High Heels, $65.70 (SALE!)

Next thing on my list is to create a fashionable christmas outfit for under $100. Wish me luck on this one!

Getting through this cold season without developing a major winter depression can be pretty tough sometimes. The lack of sunshine and the chilly temperatures dry up a lot of our physical and mental energy. But fear not! Intelligent fashion is here to save your day!

To avoid the winter blues, remember to add bold colors such as hot pink, canary yellow or soylent green to your winter wardrobe. This will help to keep the blues away from you (plus everyone coming your way) and will also make sure you get noticed during this dreary season. Genius, huh?

• COAT: Donna Karan Silk blend coat
• HAT: DKNY Wool beanie hat
• BAG: Jimmy Choo Riki patent bag
• SHOES: Balmain Fringed leather boots
• DRESS: Alexander McQueen Hologram belt sweater dress
• GLOVES: 3.1 Phillip Lim Jeweled leather gloves
• LEGWEAR: Falke Twin pack of leggings

2008 - a great year for great covers. Here we present you the past covers of Vogue UK in 2008. More 2008 cover collections to come very soon. Enjoy!

My favorite top 3 are May (Natalia! Soooo lovely!), March (Kate!) and December (Kate! Again!). The ones I liked least were Uma’s July cover (too generic) and Agyness Deyn for the June issue (Agyness over-exposure!).

Christmas time is coming! Oh, don’t you just love this merry holiday season? I love christmas and I love creating christmas outfits. I know we have more than 4 weeks to go until the big day, but I couldn’t pass upon creating an outfit based on these adorable green metallic Lanvin heels.

There is no way you can go wrong using red, green and gold in your christmas outfit as you will seamlessly fit in between the decorated christmas tree and all the sparkling christmas presents. Now I need to go and bake some cinnamon cookies. Enjoy the outfit!
