Jess of Elegantly Dressed and Stylish shared the prettiest holiday outfit in her post, Turning Heads Linkup -Red Sweater Dress for the Holidays. Apparently you all loved her dress as much as I do! And her boots…I want her boots!
My Favorite Fashion Post
Moumous of LaMoumous has been sharing a series of formal gowns for this holiday season. Seriously, every single one of them is breathtakingly beautiful. Her post, Dress to Impress @Khiani, not only showcases a gorgeous floral ball gown that has me swooning, but her list of 10 wedding guest faux pas is pretty spot on as well!
My Favorite Non-Fashion Post
Barbara of French Ethereal shared the cutest, coziest, most nostalgic of all things Winter in her post, A Cozy Hot Chocolate Bar for Christmas ~ A Pinterest Challenge. I do think a hot chocolate bar is in order around here this holiday season.
Keeping it on the edge,

Omg the hot chocolate bar post— I’m going to have to show my daughter that one. She’s a hot chocolate fanatic!
It’s already just crazy holiday busy feeling…

Becky, thanks for reading. I want some hot chocolate now instead of my boring old coffee! The frantic feelings are hard to control this time of year, for sure!

I relate to the loss of brain power. lol I feel like I’ve been that way for months now! Anyway, I remember those looks but forgot they were by Dress Lily. That’s why the brands need us to remind folks. 😉 I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving spending time with family. You mentioned time with your sister more than once in the last month or so and you know I love that! I request a pic on the blog soon of you too. I can do that, right? Anyway, rest up my word-loving blog friend!
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Aw, Chrissy, thanks so much! I had the most wonderful Thanksgiving with my sister and her family. My grand-nieces and grand-nephew were just too darn adorable and ever so loving to their Aunt Mimi! And it is so fun hanging with my nephews as well. They turned out to be pretty cool adults. Unfortunately, my sister is incredibly camera shy and would not permit even one single photo of herself! Boo on her. One day I will catch her in a mood for a selfie and then I will definitely share! I hope you had the most wonderful Thanksgiving as well, my friend.

Thanks, Jennifer! These sites are where are go for those unique pieces that I may not wear often because the price is so affordable. But then I end up wearing some of the pieces over and over again.

I think everybody is behind. LOL. You should be their model. You look great in everything they have. Thanks for hosting and I hope that you have a wonderful week.

Thanks, Patrick! I guess I am some sort of model person for them since I am advertising for them! They do carry men’s clothing, too, so maybe you could be a model as well!!!

I actually haven’t tried Dress Lily yet! All of these items are just too cute so it looks like I need to change that 😉 I especially love the first two floral dresses!

Aw, thanks so much, Lizzie! If you do order from them, just be sure to check the sizing. They are Asian based and sometimes the sizes are way off from American sizing.

I LOVE those outfits! Rosegal has become go to for styles you can’t find at the mall (and in fact I am expecting a big order tomorrow). But now, I need to check our Dress Lily.
Michelle

shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thanks, Michelle! Rosegal and DressLily (and Zaful) are under the same parent company so you will find very similar and often the same items on both websites. But the prices may vary on the same item between the websites, so I always check that, too! I can’t wait to see what Rosegal items you have on the way!

I’m with ya, sister. Sometimes “catching up” just seems IMPOSSIBLE. I feel like I’m always running running and STILL getting things done just at the last minute.
You’ve had some great looks from DressLily over the years! And those blue suede boots in the first picture? Those are To. Die. For.

Bettye, thanks so much! It is nice to know that I am not alone in the struggle. Although I don’t wish such struggles on anyone. If my inspiration would start flowing more, I’d be on a roll. It’s that darn slump that makes everything else so difficult. Oh, those teal velvet booties are from Just Fab or Shoe Dazzle (one of those, I can’t remember). They have so many cute shoes and I have a closetful to prove it! Here’s to getting our stuff done, my friend!

Jodie
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
I agree, Jodie! It’s funny though…I live in a rather small town with not very many retail clothing stores and I often wonder why I don’t see more people wearing the same things. Like if I find something cute and bold from Old Navy…why don’t see 15 other women wearing the same piece? Actually, I am going to answer my own question….I rarely leave my house these days! So I don’t see anybody ever. Haha. I need to bust out of my hermit status. But I quite like hiding from people these days. Oh the sweet Winter Blues have arrived in full effect, I am afraid. I hope you have a wonderful day, my friend!

so not only am I behind on Christmas I am behind on blogging too. My brain is so not engaging lately. I need a resurgence of energy, time and motivation. So many fun looks you have.
shelbeeontheedge@gmail.com
Thank you, Linda! I definitely need a resurgence of all of those things, too. And now that North Country Winter has arrived, the battle is definitely an uphill one…fighting the Winter Blues on top of everything else. May the energy gods shine down upon us all!

OK. I’m worn out again. I was so ready for a four-day weekend and it was so totally therapeutic but I wasn’t ready for Monday :/ And then I read your post and now I’m ready for another four-day weekend. I think sometimes we take the blogging so seriously (and I know most of us are trying to make a few cents here and there so it becomes more critical to keep up – it’s a job) that we stress ourselves out over it. It happens to me every week. Maybe it’s time for some “you time”. I just love all of your looks. You have such a unique sense of style that blends edgy and vintage and you just look gorgeous in it! DressLily sure does have some cute things and such great prices, too! And thank you so much for the link-up!

Ruth, thanks so much, my friend! I didn’t want my post to make you feel exhausted! For me, blogging and writing is my actual job and my only source of income so the pressure really is on to stay on top of it all! I definitely do take me time…probably too often…which contributes to my being behind! Ha. I am just seriously lacking inspiration lately with my words! I have been feeling super creative with my clothing though. But I don’t want to be just a fashion blogger…I need more substance from myself than the just the clothes! I hope you are able to rest and rejuvenate and get back to normal levels of productivity as well! Hang in there…we’ve got this…all of us together, supporting one another straight on through the inevitable slumps.

Aww, honored to be featured! I have a thing for sweater dresses and this one is thicker than most I own. Anyhow, great pieces, really love the olive plaid scarf! ( If i could only figure out how to tie the blanket scarf!) and the floral dress with your mix of polka dots is so pretty on yoU! Its fun finding different things that maybe not everyone has.
Have a wonderful day!

Aw, Jess, thanks so much! I just styled my new red sweater dress that was inspired by yours so stay tuned next week for that post! As for tying blanket scarves, I just make a giant triangle and drape it around my neck once with the point in front. I usually don’t even tie them, but you can tie a little knot either under or on top of the point, whichever you prefer, to keep it secured. Or secure the ends together with a brooch.

Such cute looks! I love the plaid vest! So cute. I always love the way you style your outfits with the colored tights, and you have inspired me to try some!! Like you, I can’t seem to keep up so I am a day late. Ugh. Crazy time of year.
Have a great day!
