12 I hope everyone had a beautiful Thanksgiving with friends, family, and delicious food! I just got back from a few days in Hawaii (so beautiful!!! take me back!) and came down with a nasty cold on the plane ride home. I’ve been traveling the last few weeks without any time home, and I’ve been making extra effort to take lots of supplements, eat tons of salads and greens, drink lots of juice and water, and get extra sleep so this totally bums me out! But I’m doing everything I can to knock it out and will hopefully be feeling better by the time I leave for chilly London this weekend! A lot of you asked me about the Parker dress in my last post, so I decided to show you how I wore it. What I really love about this dress is the way the beading takes it up a notch while still being incredibly simple. It’s really just a great fitting LBD with some interest added. This post showcases a more dressy way of styling it, but I’m planning to wear it with a leather jacket, booties, and a messy ponytail for a casual date night look. Also! If you are still on the hunt for your perfect holiday dress, Shopbop is having a great Black Friday promo with up to 25% off regular priced stuff with the code GOBIG14! Yeah!

    This dress is really amazing! But the shoes? OMG I can onestly say, there isn’t a single pair of shoes pictured in your post that I wouldn’t wear! They are gorgeous! Love your style!
    P.S. Can you recommen us which are the best Suja juices to buy on their own before and after big meals like yesterday’s one or – even worse – Christmas’ one next month?
    Thank you, you are stunning as always! <3

    Hawaii + your dress and entire outfit = amazing. Getting a cold = NOT amazing. Wishing you a quick, full recovery and a fabulous weekend ahead! Too many Black Friday sales I’m excited about… it’s overwhelming, haha.

    I love this! It’s great being able to rock dresses like that this time of year without having to wear an abominable snowman of layers to stay warm! I came down with a nasty cold too this week but I’m enjoying snuggles with my daughter with a healthy dose of online shopping 🙂 helmut lang is having a huuuge 40% off sale! A new leather jacket is key to speedy recovery, no?

    J’adore…reminds me of Balmain which I freaking LOVE! Stunning as always Annie!

    Thank you!!! Totally reminded me too! Such a great alternative on the wallet 🙂 X

  • blawnde

    YES! leather jackets are always the answer. Check out my new post 🙂 X

    Thank you!!! All better thank goodness because I literally got back from Hawaii and turned around and went to London with a cold. Felt better by the time I landed or else this would have been an “interesting” trip because it’s freezing here! XXX

  • blawnde

    Thank you!! Shoes are my jam! I just looooove them! I love the green juices and Glow and Twelve Essentials are particularly my faves! They are really oxygenating so you will feel a lot more energized and light than you do now.

    SO glad you’re feeling better! And OMG, are you in London to see the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show???

  • blawnde

    I am! We are the official beverage sponsor of the show 🙂 I’ll give u a full download when I’m back!!!

  • Liz Stark

    SO awesome. Have a great time and I definitely look forward to your recap! I can’t wait to watch the show on tv, though it’s nothing like being there in person, haha.

    Love your blog! Just wondering how you tell your hairdresser to cut your hair, I would love to have mine cut similarly! Also what styling tools do you use?? Thanks!
