I have had a busy few weeks with the end of the semester right around the corner.  But, all of the fun sequin, glitter and bright clothes and accessories just make me want to go to holiday parties already!

How fun are these flats?!  Fabulous!

The red cups are back!!!!! 

I've mentioned it before, but I am so excited that the red cups are back at Starbucks.  This means the return of peppermint drinks.  I still feel like it's a little early to dive into Christmas (I do love Thanksgiving and think it's an under-appreciated holiday), but drinking peppermint hot-cocoa or peppermint mocha coffee in a fun winter cup is the perfect thing to help you ease into the upcoming holiday season.

1.  J.Crew Quilted Vest | I am loving puffy quilted vest right now.  They are so cozy and fun and since we have a very mild winter in Florida, vests are the perfect way to wear winter clothes without overly bundling up.  

2. Madewell Pintuck Blouse | This red silk long-sleeve blouse from Madewell is the perfect shirt for the holiday season.  Add some fun jewelry, like a statement necklace, and this is the perfect shirt for a holiday party.  

3.  J.Crew Union Suit | I died when I saw these one-piece PJs from J.Crew.  How much fun would it be to wake up on Christmas morning in these bright, striped pajamas?

4. Vickers Bow Camp Three Point from KJP | If you can't tell, I am a little obsessed with the new Kiel James Patrick Vickers Bow Collection.  They are so fabulous, I can't get over it.  The Camp Three Point in red plaid is one of my favorites.  It is the perfect bracelet to wear during the holiday season or give as a gift. 

Scroll through a few more of my favorite red items below.

party time.

It's so fun to get dressed up for holiday parties.  Unfortunately, I live in Florida and it has not been "holiday weather" recently so I have to be more creative when I get dressed up for parties.

J.Crew always has great go-to outfits for all kinds of events.  I wore this dress with black tights and tan boots to a dessert and coffee Christmas party last night.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

One of my favorite Thanksgiving traditions is the annual pardoning of the turkeys by the President.  It's much more fun since there a children in the White House to enjoy the holiday traditions.

President Obama and his daughters pardoning the Thanksgiving turkeys.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween Lilly style! 

So cute.

If I had time I totally would have made a cute pumpkin like this... sadly I've been so busy studying and doing homework that I haven't really had much time to be crafty.

Did you decorate a pumpkin for Halloween?
