Special Occasion Holiday Looks with Talbots

Thank you Talbots for sponsoring this post.

Our readers adore Talbots for their exceptional quality and size-inclusive collections. This holiday season, they’ve outdone themselves with luxe pieces that exude elegance, sophistication, and timeless charm.

I’m thrilled to share two stunning looks that I am  genuinely excited to wear this season. While most of my holiday gatherings tend to be on the casual side, I love having a few opportunities to embrace the joy of dressing up a little more!

And today, until 11/27 take 40% Off Your Entire Purchase!

Sequin Skirt, | Cashmere Turtleneck, | Lamé Knotted Clutch

First, this head-to-toe monochromatic silver look is stunning. 

This Sequin Skirt is a show stopper, it looks like sparkly liquid metal. The sequins are smooth and soft and what I was so delighted by is that the skirt is lined and so  comfortable up against your skin.

I am 5’10 and am wearing the size 6.

I paired it with their Cashmere Turtleneck. You can’t see it well in the photo but it has a little bit of shimmer to it. The mix of cashmere with sequin is so elegant. 

We host a party on Christmas night that over the years has turned into a big fun gathering of friends and family. And while it is very “come as you are” I’m thinking, as the host, a sequin skirt and turtleneck is the way to go.

If I was wearing this to a party out of my house, I would grab this  Lamé Knotted Clutch that is the perfect match.

Occasion Cardigan, | Bow Hem Ankle Pants

Another festive event on our calendar is the Santa Brunch at our club. We originally joined when our older girls were starting to outgrow the little-kid Christmas traditions, but now with Vivi, we get to experience all the magic again. At almost 6 years old, she’s at the perfect age to fully embrace the holiday wonder.

We always invite our best friends—whose kids feel more like cousins—and it’s such a joyful afternoon filled with laughter, holiday cheer, and everyone dressed in their most festive and chic outfits.

This is what I’m wearing.

Occasion Cardigan, | Bow Hem Ankle Pants

Their Occasion Cardigan, buttoned, wears like a top. The buttons are stunning, adding the right amount of sparkle.

And the pants are the best with a tuxedo stripe down the leg and bow detail at the ankle. Their fit is perfect, with sizes in Misses, Petite and Plus.
