Christmas Dressing 🎄
Hello Dolls!
I can not believe it’s December and I’m writing a blog about dressing for Christmas but alas here we are. I don’t know about you but I’m a Christmas Hallmark Girl through and through! I love all of the activities, markets, parties and food! With all of these activities it can be a daunting task to know what to wear for all of them. In this series I’m going to give you ideas for what to wear throughout the entire Christmas and Holiday season!
I will add to this post each day! Make sure you check out the reels and TikTok’s on Instagram and Facebook: @ trendaivie on all platforms!
Ok, let’s get into this fashion!
My first look is perfect for a going to a friend’s Semi-dressy Christmas party. The sequined Turban and silky pants elevate the look to a party look. Similar pieces linked!
Hey babes! Day 2’s look is a basic-ish grey dress with a slit! Add chic accessories to dress it up!
Day4’s Theme: Sequins!
Day Five’s Theme: Last Minute Christmas Shopping!
Day 7’s Look!
I hope you enjoyed this blog! Please do follow me on Instagram: @
Long Winter Long Underwear 🖤
It has been so cold here in Minnesota, I thought this is the perfect time to wear my vintage long underwear! However, I’m not wearing it under my clothes I’m wearing it as a jumpsuit instead. To make it not look like underwear, I paired it with loafers to anchor the look. I added a long sweater to cover the bottom and make it a bit more “dressy”! Have a good day babes! 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Cool Weather Lace!
There are so many things that we wear and naturally stick into categories. For the longest time Fashion considered white after Labor Day a faux pas. However, now we know there are winter whites and also it depends on how you mix and match pieces.
The same goes with lace. When we think of lace, we tend to think of warm weather ,sandals,and taking strolls through a park on a hot summer day. Ok, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit! However, you get my point. Lace is such a pretty material actually one of my fave things to wear as you can tell by the name lol!
Here I wanted to show a couple of ways to wear it!
Pieces Inspired by the look!
Glam Oversized Chic and Slouchy Sweater!
Until Next Time, stay Chic Dolls!

Summer Sales!
The great thing about the 4th of July weekend like so many other holidays; is that there are usually a plethora of sales! Since we are still in the middle of summer it’s great to have a mid season sale to freshen up your wardrobe!
When shopping a sale it’s a great opportunity to get that piece you’ve been longing to get and to try a new trend. It’s also a great time to snatch up a few pieces for the Fall season that may be hanging around in the sale section from last season!
Below I will show you a few of my faves from a few of my go-to stores!

Thanksgiving Attire 🧡
Thanksgiving as you well know is this Thursday! If you still find yourself unsure of what to wear I have a few ideas that will hopefully ease those worries. Now I know we are only going to be walking from the living room to The dining room to the basement and back again! However, it’s great to look good while doing it!
My go-to is a maxi dress! A maxi allows you to move around freely and not worry too much about being cold. If you’re in a super cold climate like me(Minnesota) you should still opt for tights; however the long length adds that extra layer of warmth!

Spaghetti-strap cha-cha maxi dress in leopard print
Another personal favorite is the versatile midi dress! It’s long enough to say “hey I’m fancy” yet at the same time is short enough to were you aren’t having to walk around holding your dress up!

Classic lace is always an option! A lace dress is perfect for being your dressy go-to! You know that you’ll instantly feel fancy when you slip on a lace dress!

Pleats are feminine and flirty and make an understated yet chic statement!

A slip dress is a great versatile option and would be perfect with a sweater layered over it! Make sure the sweater is a bit slouchy so go up a size if needed!
Note: Technical Glitch! For whatever reason the link to the slip dress and sweater below are at the top of the post! Both from J. Crew!

Nevereven seamed satin slip dress $98

Jeweled embellished Fair Isle crewneck sweater $120
If you really want to go all out opt for a sequined number!

Cool Girl Maxi Dress

If dresses aren’t really your style a jumpsuit is a great alternative!

Last but not least a cozy sweater and jeans works if you prefer to take a laidback approach to the day!

Sweet and Chic-Shoulders
I’m loving the shoulder baring trend which is flattering on almost everyone!
This trend is one of my faves because the hint of bare skin is just enough to be flirty yet demure enough to be sweet!
Wearing Off-the Shoulder looks great casually or dressed up. For a dressy look that you could wear on a date or a night out try a dress with a clutch and strappy sandals!
To make the look work for Day try an Off-the shoulder top with denim or leggings( if it’s tunic length) for a more easygoing casual vibe!
Similar Sweater
Pants By One Teaspoon
No matter how you decide to wear the trend make sure to keep the look simple and keep accessories to a minimum. Most importantly have fun!

Spring-Layers!
I love Spring! It’s one of the best times to play dress up because of the fun layering you can do! This outfit is simple yet has fun details!
For Spring layering I like to wear lighter pieces because it can be warmer during the day so you want to be comfortable and not overheat.
I paired a netted long sweater with a short sleeved sweatshirt to add depth and interest!
I kept the bottom half of the outfit simple with a strappy sandal and dark leggings!
I hope this inspires some Spring Layering!

My Green Drink 🍵
The Hubby says I look like the perfect, milennial hipster in this pic! Yes, I’m a millennial. Therefore, I can laugh at myself; which I do often because what’s life without laughter! Moving Forward!
I, like a lot of people have embarked on a healthy eating journey this January. I actually have been doing a detox every January for the last 4 years and I have actually stuck it out each time and come away feeling better. This is not to brag, it is a challenge for me like most people to stick to a healthy eating routine. However, I have a few tricks up my sleeve to make it a bit bearable! I will share one of them here!
I typically try to eat healthy Year-round, however, at Christmas time I indulge a lot! Therefore, January is the perfect time to reset my body and get it back to normal. For my detox I can’t have milk, which really cramps my style because I love drinking coffee, Tea and Flat Whites, it’s literally an everyday thing. I usually drink tea as a replacement for my coffee during this time. More specifically as of late I’ve been drinking Matcha. Which are green tea leaves crushed into a powder form.
I love drinking Matcha because to me it has a creamier texture on its own. It helps me deal with the lack of milk I can have. I also like how filling it is!
Click To Buy Matcha!
Click the pic for a link to buy Matcha. I bought mine at Lunds and Byerlys in Edina, MN.
Green Tea has many benefits one of which is it contains antioxidants! For me, I use it to help curb my hunger during my detox and it’s also a great way to take a relaxing moment to yourself.
You can read more about Green Tea benefits here: Green Tea Facts
Back to how I drink it!
I follow the instructions on the tea’s packaging.
Then I add: Stevia( 0 calorie all natural sweetener), Vanilla Extract, and cream when I can!
I use a honey spoon to stir my Matcha!
I hope you enjoy this yummy drink! I love to drink Matcha whether I’m detoxing or not because to me it’s delicious!
Have a great Week!
