What I Wore | Family Christmas Day + In All Modesty Review

Hello lovelies! How was your Christmas? Mine was good. We [me & Gaby] went to a friends house for dinner and games, afterwards we stopped at Starbucks to pick up a coffee before coming back to our house. Our afternoon was then spent with our Marvel loving friends [Liz & Grace] [the same ones we spent our morning with] to watch more episodes from series 1 of Agents of SHIELD, Thor 2, and the new Doctor Who Christmas special. We also exchanged some gifts with each other.

How did you spend your Christmas? 

What I'm Wearing
Black Peplum Top -- BCBGeneration via LeTote [borrowing]
Black Taffeta Skirt -- c/o In All Modesty 
Black Flats -- Target [$15]
Black Tights -- JCPenny [$5]
Necklace -- Simply Chic [$2.50]
Earrings -- via LeTote [$8]

Even though this is what I wore for Christmas dinner and opening gifts, this is a rather old outfit. You see, our family celebrated our Family Christmas on December 10th 'cause most of my family went down to Florida for Christmas. I had to stay back and do this thing called.....work. Anyhow, I've been saving up this outfit to share with y'all on Christmas day, but as y'all can see that didn't happen. :p 

Anyhow...I was sent this taffeta black skirt from an Easy shop called, In All Modesty to review and model on BF's back in November. When the skirt arrived in the mail [14 days after it was shipped, it was coming internationally], I knew right away that I was going to save it to wear for our family Christmas. The skirt itself is high quality, fits my measurements perfectly [which doesn't always happen when I custom order stuff], and makes a lovely swish-swish noise when I walk. *sighs*

If you have been on the lookout for customized modest clothing options, that supports independent designers and seamstress, I would recommend that you check out In All Modesty yourself.

Since I told y'all about my Christmas day on the 25th, I feel like I should share a bit about my December 10th Christmas too. It is only fair, right? We went out for dinner at Bonefish Grill as family after we all got off work, which was lovely especially since I haven't eaten there since Easter. We came back home after supper to open gifts, and head-off to bed since several of my family members had come down sick. I received some lovely gifts from my family & friends:
  • Chi Flat Iron
  • Series 1-3 of Call the Midwife
  • U of Michigan Sweatshirt
  • PJ Tunic
  • Kelly Green Wristlet
  • Post Earrings Set from Target
  • J.Crew Earrings
  • Slippers
  • Fox Bank [you know, kinda like a piggy bank]
  • Elizabeth & James Rollerball Set
  • Peppermint Brownies
  • Cosmetics Bag Set
  • Jewelry Storage Plate
  • LC Post Earrings
  • J.Crew Gift Card 
  • Bath & Body Works Candle in "Cinnamon Caramel Swirl"
