what to wear to the holiday party

Welcome to See Kate Sew! If you're new here, sign up for my email newsletter for access to free patterns, tutorials and all the latest sewing news!

If you read the December issue of Martha Stewart Living (or just looked at the pictures, like I did) you may have seen a lot of shimmer. And a lot of pink. I loved it all! And that’s when I decided glittery pink is way better than red and green. (Actually I decided that a while ago. Red is my least favorite color. Just doesn’t look good on me, but I do love it on apples, wagons and other things. And the red and green combo gets so old so fast.) But glittery pink is perfect. So I made these flats.

And then on a retail therapy kind of day I bought mini plastic globe ornaments in shimmery pink while roaming the craft store when I shouldn’t have been. (They were 60% off!) I thought they would make a pretty simple and pretty fun necklace for the holidays. 


And they go perfectly with these:

I just strung them on a pink ribbon and tied a bow. Then I had my trusty photographer/husband take a few pictures in the aftermath of the huge snowstorm. 6 inches!

Twinkle toes + ornament necklace + white maternity tutu shirt + dark wash skinny jeans = perfect holiday party ensemble


(After I had my baby I vowed to never wear maternity clothes unless I was pregnant again. But I love them too much. So comfy, so easy and so cute! So there it is, a big huge white maternity shirt in the middle of a pretty white winter.)

And if your husband is like mine you might get some photos like these:

That is my hand grabbing for the camera because we were done. Or so I thought.


Happy holiday partying to you!

    The necklace AND the shoes are gorgeous. Cute ideas. And the billowy white shirt looks great with them. I have a gray maternity sweater that I love, and I am so tempted to dig it out of the closet and wear it.
