What's Black and White With Hints of Red? Christmas Parties, Of Course!

'Tis the time of year where we play our favorite 90's pop stars' Christmas songs Christmas music's on repeat. Thank god for Spotify. Am I right? It's also that time of year for endless holiday parties filled with sequins dresses and red lips.

While our budgets are reserved for buying gifts for loved ones, I'm taking to my closet and make up bag for to create a holiday look from what I already own.

Here are my must-haves to keep your skin looking dewy in the frosty weather, your cheeky rosy, your eyes smokey, and your lips luscious during the holiday season.  

Lips: Revlon's Crayon Lipstick in Striking. Nars Lip Gloss in Larger Than Life. Mac Lipstick in Diva. Laura Mercier Moisturizing Supreme Foundation in Sunny Beige. Mac Blush in Blushbaby. OPI Nailpolish in Visions of Love. MAC Eyeshadow in Satin Taupe and Expensive Pink. Bobbi Brown in Golden Light. Clinique Color Correcting Primer. Chanel in 42 Beige Rose. Loreal's Voluminous Mascara in Carbon. MACs Limited Edition Eye Liner but Kohl Power Eye Liner.

For my first Christmas party of the season I wore a  Tophop Romper I bought this summer with last season's Anthropologie x Bauble Bar earrings (this year's version is displayed above), and last season's metallic pumps. For the perfect red lip I always rely on Revlons lip crayon and NARS lip gloss. The gloss gives you the perfect shine. This time, I went a little deeper and opted for a more sultry red - MAC's Matte Lipstick in Diva was the cherry on this white cake.
