Festive Christmas Attire!

Christmas Time! It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Which also means tons of events and wondering what to wear! It can be overwhelming! Well I have a few ideas for you which I hope will take some of the pressure off!

Event: Christmas Party-Casual 

I say you can never go wrong with an Ugly Christmas Sweater! They are festive and fun and allow you to eat without wearing something tight and constricting. Pair with a mini skirt and tights to dress it up a bit!

Event: Work Christmas Party

Remember, this is a work party so you dress with that in mind. A safe bet is wearing dressy office attire with a dash of Cheer! A sparkly top, pencil skirt and brooch would be perfect!

Valentine’s Day-Looks For Staying In and Going Out!

Hey Dolls,

So it’s February and Valentine’s Day is soon approaching! I have always loved Valentine’s Day because it’s always been a day to show love to loved ones in my house. Since I was young my sisters and I were given gifts and treats by our parents. Therefore, if you do or don’t have a romantic relationship on Valentine’s Day you can still use this day to hang with friends or family and show them how much you love them!

With that being said I have come up with a few different looks to wear on  Valentine’s Day! If you stay in for a cozy movie night, head out for a romantic dinner or get apps with friends;  I’ve got you covered!

First Up- Staying Home 

I for one love a good movie and popcorn this cozy ensemble is perfect for watching Netflix or your fave movie!

Joggers and a luxe tee- Similar found at Gap, Shoes are the Billy Jean in Pewter from JustFab

Dinner with the family or Appetizers with friends!

We all know that leggings are being worn to more than yoga nowadays. Make your Look work for going out by pairing it with a tunic length denim jacket. The heels are great if you want to dress the look up a bit!

Baking and Roasting:Egg Bake🍳

I absolutely love breakfast food and I was really craving this place called the Pancake House which serves incredible breakfast. However, it’s only open until 3PM and I knew I wouldn’t make it there in time to not be annoying to all the staff, so I employed my second option which was to make something myself! I decided to go with an Egg Bake because I wanted the meal to be hearty so my family and I could have it for dinner! This is perfect for a brunch and/or entertaining!

I call this recipe : Β©Ruby Madison’s French Egg Bake Souffle

Total Time: 1 hr 5 min

Prep: 5 min Cook: 1 hr This dish has about 6 to 8 servings

Supplies: 13 by 9-inch baking dish

Ingredients:

1 small-medium circular block of Brie Cheese

1 pound cheddar cheese, coarsely grated

12 large eggs, lightly beaten

2 cups sour cream
1/2 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 two-pack of Refrigerated Pillsbury Pie Crusts

Rosemary, White Pepper, Thyme

Butter

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Butter the 13×9” baking dish and spread one of the pie crusts to cover the bottom of the pan. You will have to flatten crust by rolling to accomplish this. Cut the Brie Cheese lengthwise and arrange flat thin slices to cover the entire pie crust in pan.
Whisk the eggs with the sour cream and whipping cream in a large bowl until blended. Season with pepper, Rosemary, White Pepper, and Thyme, blend it evenly . Pour the eggs over the Brie cheese and pie crust bottom into the pan . Spread the cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the eggs. Roll out and Cut the second pie crust into thin strips and do a criss-cross pattern if possible over the top, and bake in the middle of the oven until golden, about 45 minutes. Salt to taste. Enjoy with coffee and bacon!

Until next time, stay chic dolls πŸ’œ

Baking and Roasting!

Hey Dolls, 

This week has been so full of cooking, baking etc. I like to call it the season of eating lol. I made two things that were especially delicious and I’d like to share the recipes with you! One is a Prime Rib Roast and the other is an Egg Bake, I will share in another post.

Let’s Cook!
Whenever, I am in charge of Christmas dinner I make a Prime Rib Roast. This year I made a Roast with a recipe I got from the Pioneer Woman as a base. However, I made a couple of changes.



Total Time:
1 hr 25 min  Prep: 10 min   Inactive:  20 min Cook: 55 min  Yield: 16 servings

Ingredients

1 whole boneless rib eye (12 to 15 pounds)
Olive oil
1/4 cup tri-color peppercorns
5 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
1/2 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup minced garlic
My added ingredients:

Rosemary Oil
White Pepper
Add these with the other ingredients
Directions:

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.

Cut the rib eye in half (roast halves separately for more controlled/even cooking).

Heat some oil in a large skillet over high heat. Sear both rib eye halves until a nice dark golden color, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Place the peppercorns into a bag and crush with a rolling pin. Shred the leaves from the thyme and rosemary sprigs. Mix the salt with the crushed peppercorns, rosemary leaves, thyme leaves and garlic. Pour olive oil over the rib eye and pour on the rub mix. Pat slightly to get it to stick to the meat. Roast for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 275 degrees F and roast until a meat thermometer registers 125 for rare/medium-rare, about 20 more minutes (the roast will continue to cook slightly after removing from the oven). Remove from the oven and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing.

Along with Athleisure, the pajama For Day trend has been gaining momentum. Make your Look work For Day and Night with a few items you probably already own!

Pair a stylish made for day robe with leggings, Tunic tee, and boots for a more casual look. To transition the look for a night out pair it with pumps.

Speaking of Athleisure, this is one of fave styles of dress because it allows you to dress casually in an elevated way. Add faux fur and pumps to dress up the look!

Last but not least, the Christmas season is of course a time to dress up in your fanciest attire! Pretty much anything goes; lace, fur, sparkles, sequins, maxis, minis and of course Velvet!
