If you didn’t get your shot at the prizes this time, stay tuned. Remington Ready has an announcement on January 2^nd that might be up your alley!

Planning to stay home for Christmas this year?  Make the best of it, create some memories, cuddle by the fire and take some great pictures to preserve the memory! Dress casual and comfy with the same twist of personality you should be wearing every time you get dressed!  The key to a chic casual look for a stylish casual Christmas is a great sweater!  (And, I’m not speaking of a sweater with a reindeer on it!)

This Michael Kors Belted Cardigan is the perfect fashion solution to keep you warm and looking fabulous. Wear over jeans, leggings or a maxi dress! Be sure your top is simple and fitted so the sweater takes center stage!

Kate Spade knows how to make simple special! Get inspired by this Matigale Bow Sweater and wear a look that will make you feel as special as you are! I love the sweater paired with a skirt of simple lines but it will also look fabulous with your best jeans!

If you prefer a classic look, a structured cardigan is lovely.  Instead of neutral, go for a vibrant color that enhances your mood like this Olympic Blue Pointelle Argyle Pattern Cardigan!  You’ll really stand out in family photos!  

Love more of a boho chic vibe? Wear a poncho!  The asymmetric shape of this Heidi Poncho is interesting and pairs well with your favorite skinny jeans!  Add a long statement necklace, like that shown in the picture, to dress up the look.  *A poncho is not recommended if you are cooking!

Three more tips to help you look great for a casual Christmas celebration:

1. Once you decide on which sweater style to wear, make sure your bottom compliments the look.  If the sweater is more fitted, your bottom can be full like an aline skirt or flare jeans.  If your sweater is full then pair with skinny jeans, a pencil skirt or leggings.

2. Wear statement jewelry: choose a ring, necklace or earrings but only one piece needs to make a statement.

3. Wear shoes, not slippers (at least for the majority of the day!). You’ll feel more dressed with shoes (it is a special day, afterall!).  Skip the flats and go for heels, you’ll look fabulous! 

Merry, Stylish Christmas!

Love & Hugs,

Tammy

Originally on our Remington Red Chair HOT LINKS for Candy Cane Nails, I was inspired to find a different version using another festive Holiday color…our friend SILVER.

Dani Taylor from Salon Beverly created this DYI  Red & Silver Candy Cane manicure. Let your nails be the star at your upcoming Holiday party!

1} Apply two coats of OPI Radiance

2} Select one nail on each hand to be your CANDY CANE  nail! Do simple white stripes on that nail with a white Nail Art {can be picked up at any beauty supply store like Sally’s

3}On the Candy Cane nail, go back and fill in smaller stripes with a RED nail art. Apply with a clear top and …VOILA.

Holiday. Nail. Perfection.

I was recently introduced to a new children's organic and natural hair care line called Hot Tot. I'm excited to introduce this company to you as I think they are already doing great things for children's hair and hearts! Here is an interview with Hot Tot founder, Megan Gage:

It’s safe to say that the holiday season is definitely in the air. One of my favorite times of the year –besides summer, of course! Ya’ll know I’m not so big on fall, once Fashion Week is over I’m usually counting down the days until summer comes around but something about the holidays always lifts my spirits and I can’t help but get excited.

Silly confession: I totally bring out the Christmas tunes in, like, July. I’m that girl sitting in traffic (a not-so-rare occurrence in L.A) and belting it out to my hearts content to Christmas music. Only the classics for me of course, like Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra Britney and Hilary Duff. And Justin Bieber. I know.

As a total beauty-junkie and someone who tries out 100’s of beauty products every year, I decided to come up with a list of beauty gifts that any beauty-obsessed gal will totally love --no matter what your budget.
