December is here. And in a few days the streets will be crowded of people in search of gifts.
There is a childish part of me that has always loved the sweetness of the month.
Then, years have gone too fast and have taken away dears.I feel some sadness, but this is life.
December is here.
I will choose pretty presents for my (old ) relatives and friends.
I will be happy to see them smile.
December is a festive month which I start this year wearing a silk skirt .
To feel the joy around . It's a special month , after all!
A silk skirt with beads sewed on the rim .
A marble-colour (isn't it a fantastic way to name a colour ? ) sweater
with tiny holes ( which I bought online ).
The burgundy nail polish and pearls add some festive .
I like pearls but think that they are a bit too classic , so have recently made a necklace which reflects my actual taste.
It has smoky quartz gemstones and a thin chain in the back
Now I am ready.
And you ?
You certainly are ready! Such a beautiful skirt! The beads are so pretty! And so is the topic. I also like how you modernized the pearls.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful December!

Those pearls were part of an old necklace which I hadn't been wearing for long . Now I have a new one that is more my taste...
DeleteBeautiful look! Such a lovely skirt and the necklace you created is so pretty too.
ReplyDeleteI needed a necklace which matched the outfit. Pearls go with (almost) everything!
DeleteYou are looking so very ready to take on the festive season in your sparkly skirt and pretty top. I really like how you have made the pearls your own, really lovely.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your December, Dan.
It is a special month...I want to enjoy every moment of it !! :-)
DeleteOhhhh the detail on that skirt is just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnd how modern to add in the booties!!
Happy December, Dan!!

I am a fan of booties ... I should prepare a post on the topic!

Yes I am, and well in advance! :-)
DeleteI love that skirt, Dan, and how amazing is that sweater! At first sight I thought they were tiny dots, but then I read they were tiny holes! How ingenious! Enjoy every moment of December ... xxx
ReplyDeleteThe skirt has a very cute colour in real. A mauve tone not well visible in the photos...
DeleteThis is one of my favorite looks for you, Dan. The skirt is gorgeous with the perfect top. But of course, my eyes went right to the beautiful hand made necklace which is perfect! Happy Holidays to you and your family.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks dear Rebecca!
DeleteI bought the skirt years ago. I styled it with the large sweater for a modern look ... then I added the necklace ... pearls are so nice!
Love the marble sweater with the texture! The skirt is so gorgeous, love the sheer layer with the beading, it is perfect for the holiday season.
ReplyDeleteI know how bittersweet holidays can be, missing loved ones, but it is a wonderful time to take stock and enjoy the people in our lives and well as reminisce fondly of who we remember, and of friends, far away,
Love the boots, too, by the by..
much love, Elle

You perfectly understand my feelings, Elle. There is a bit of melancholy during Christmas time...but I am determined to enjoy its magic vibe!
DeleteGorgeous! You look lovely dear!
ReplyDeleteThanks darling!
DeleteBeautiful skirt. Very good for all the festivities this month, but also good for other months/days.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the sweater. You didn't mention any brands and I am curious.
The sweater and those booties make this outfit very modern. Love what you did with the necklace. I love nearly all your necklaces. If you ever open a jewellery shop, I will become your best customer.

So, there is a new job in my future! You can never know ... :-)
DeleteThe sweater has the shape of a sweatshirt (the brand is Alpha). I like its modern look...
I really like the trim on the skirt, it's perfect for the holiday season!
ReplyDeleteWhen I bought the skirt ( it was years ago) I was tempted to unstitch the beads from the trim. Luckily I didn't!!
DeletePretty skirt, love the shimmer!
ReplyDeletethanks for linking up with Turning heads tuesday
