Joe's holiday party

What do you wear to a function that on the invitation it says:
"Apparel: Holiday attire"
??? Are we talking Christmas sweaters? or is it After five cocktail dresses? or are people dressing up as Santa?

Joe asked a fellow female employee and she said that some people would be dressed in sequined formals, while others would be in blue jeans and cowboy hats! (can you imagine my horror as I was trying to find something to wear??? and considering that we agreed to not purchase any new clothing for a while???)


So...I threw this together in MINUTES before we left. (and yes, there were people there with sequined evening gowns and cowboys with blue jeans and cowboy hats!) very eclectic crowd.

Your outfit is perfect, we got an invite that said the same thing, they should be more specific! I really think you should have worn a Christmas sweater, totally your style! :)

I like the idea of Santa and Mrs. Claus! You look beautiful! I said this on your myspace too, but I think that is my favorite picture of you and Joe!

Although you look hot, my vote would of gone with the cheesiest holiday sweater ever invented. Maybe even one that would light up. Just kidding! You did a great job on the outfit.
