Holiday Party Looks: Outfit, Makeup, & Double Giveaway!

Affiliate Links / Product Samples

Is it Christmas yet?! While I can’t believe it’s almost here, I am ready for it. Mostly because I get to take a few days off work and hopefully catch up on some much needed sleep. Until then, I’m back with the next in my holiday party looks series! This one is probably my favorite, as because it incorporates my favorite holiday color (red), sparkles, and fringe. Pretty much all the best things in party wear, if you ask me.

Holiday Party Looks: Vintage Inspired 1920s Holiday Outfit // hellorigby.com seattle fashion blog

I found this dress at Fred Meyer of all places, while shopping the Black Friday deals. I’d been dying to find a reasonably priced 1920s flapper inspired dress forever but had yet to find one. This one was on sale for $25 and I couldn’t resist. I knew it would get some wear this holiday season, and it did last night at my friend Sydney’s holiday party! I love that the sparkle is subtle; as much as I love sequins, I’m not a super in your face type of girl, so this is much more my speed.

I paired it with this bright red coat I found last weekend while shopping at Value Village. I had actually been eyeing this exact coat from J. Crew earlier this season but wrote it off because of the price. For $25 and in almost pristine condition? Heck yes! This, my friends, is why I will always be a thrift shopper. My only complaint about the coat is that the sleeves are a touch too long, and I’m not sure if this can be fixed because there are buttons at the edge of the sleeve. I think it’s worth a trip to my alterations lady to find out though, and will be doing that after the holidays. Until then, please forgive the sleeve length. ;)

I was also really excited to find this bag at ASOS, which matches my favorite pair of red pumps from SJP perfectly. I picked out an extra one for one of you, because the last time I used a statement red clutch (well, technically that was a jewelry roll… hence why I replaced it with this one ;)) it got a lot of compliments! Enter below if you’d like to own it, open internationally and will end on Sunday at 11:59pm EST, so I can get it to you in time for any last-minute holiday outfits. (Except for my international friends, since shipping is unfortunately unpredictable!)

A holiday outfit wouldn’t be complete without a pretty makeup look, am I right? Today I wanted to do something a bit different – instead of the shimmery gold looks I’ve been seeing all over, I wanted a more cool-toned smokey eye without being too heavy. I stuck to my Blushed Nudes Palette from Maybelline, which has a nice mix of shimmery lighter colors, mattes, and deeper tones to give the smokey effect I was looking for.

I also wanted to use only drugstore products for at least one tutorial this month, and ended up using all Maybelline makeup. (No, I’m not getting paid by them to use these products. I owned many of them already and really like their products!) I’ve got enough drugstore love to spread it around so I’ll be doing more of these with other products next year.

    Love this look! It is totally mind blowing that Fred Myers has clothes – there are a few in Spokane, but I’ve never explored that much. The flapper style is darling! I’m also so jealous this coat is thrifted! Second hand shopping in Seattle is seriously the best… Spokane, not so much. I love going to the store Crossroads when I’m in town!

      Ha, I used to drive down to Spokane to go thrifting when I was in college! I had luck with vintage pieces, brand names not so much. :P Fred Meyer definitely has some great clothing pieces – I was surprised! I often forget it’s an option since I’m normally there for groceries.
