As promised I have a few pictures from my roomies & my first annual holiday party (it's going to be a new tradition)! It was a huge success; my friends, even the guys, loved getting all dressed up and we all felt pretty sophisticated. We baked cookies & my moms famous hello dolly bars and made the world's best spinach dip. We had christmas-y drinks & of course decorations. It was a fabulous evening before we all go home for the holidays.
As a college student, I don't get too many oportunities to wear poufy party dresses so I went all out. Everyone told me I looked like a present in my tartan. I was going more for a gossip girl, or Dolce & Gabanna FW08 look, but I don't think they'd get the reference:)
me in my party dress!

Now that exams are over, I'm looking forward to going home and spending some time with the fam, and doing some (okay, all) of my Christmas shopping!
