Illuminated Holiday

It's just kind of like the best things ever.. glitter, velvet, jewels, and metallics, and it all falls under the category of the holiday!  Ultimately the looks I put together for this shoot are fabulous enough to wear to a swanky gala or just a party at a friend's!  Go for the holiday cliche and wear that velvet dress from 1990 from the back of the closet and pack on the jewels!  I asked Shannon to model because she is a stunning person, and she gave the pictures so much personality!  I stayed up until 5 in the morning painting the backdrop for this, and I plan to keep it up for the rest of the season.. too much work for one day, right?  What a colorful and bright touch the Christmas lights added too!  These outfits incorporated new designers as well as some vintage pieces!
