Hi friends!
Merry Christmas Eve (for those of you who celebrate Christmas!) This morning I’m so excited to share 1.) A fabulous pair of holiday pants and 2.) some exciting news coming to The Golden Girl!
My friend Shanna of Celebritized in Chicago and I are pairing up to bring you a fun new series. Whether it’s day to night, business to pleasure, cocktails to couch potato, we’ll show you how to style any item in your closet- for any occasion.
Backing up a few steps here, Shanna and I have a bit of history. Prior to becoming Chicago bloggers, our previous chapter together involved a lot of Pizza Express (extra ranch) and late-night cramming sessions at Indiana University. Luckily for us (and you) we’ve moved on. Now our time together is spent collaborating on bigger and better things, like this very post you’re reading now!
For the first edition of our series, we’ve selected a pair of Topshop Plaid Leggings. As we wandered through the store on Michigan Avenue last weekend, we were quickly losing steam pawing through racks and racks of crop tops and fancy sweaters. Then, we both immediately gasped, “THOSE PANTS!” and that was that. So here you go, here are the pants. Served up two ways, just in time for Christmas Eve. Be sure to check out Shanna’s full post here to see the full details on how she styled her look.
Happy holidays!
