could you do something with gold sequins? maybe leggings or a skirt, and a black top with a red lip?? i'd say buffalo plaid, but it seems so obvious with the decor, if that makes sense.

I was thinking that I would wear black leather skinnies with my gold sequin blazer but I forgot that I loaned it to Smo. I like that gold sequin idea & am going to stop by H&M today to see if they've got those leggings in store. If not, I may do a grey chunky sweater over the leather leggings.
I think you need more sparkle, i'm not really feeling either of the green options, but i do think leopard print in there would be cute.
I think the Green also reads almost black in the pictures. Which trust me I love an all black outfit but for cheery christmas cards some color may be fun.

Ok- I found black sequin pants at (the 3rd) H&M that I visited. Gold would have been amazing. I'll be near another H&M next Tuesday and will pop in to see if they've got the gold. Otherwise, would a cream-colored chunky knit sweater, black/gold sequin leggings, red lip work? Not sure about shoes yet. *i went ahead & ordered the gold- shipping says Saturday:)

Thanks for your help pretty lady friends!! I'm a bit nervous about putting my giant legs in gold sequins but I'll fall back on the black sequins if necessary.
Btw- I got black sequin leggings for $20 at h&m. The gold (and some in black) are $39. They were a bit nicer in construction (nicer waistband, zipper and had zippers at the ankle) but were the same exact fabric as the $20 pair. I didn't see a reason to spend almost double for the ones that zippered. You can't go wrong for $20 if you're looking for black. They already have their Black Friday deals out too. lostarzchar217binaaak0517mryrcnditzydicallmehales
