The Christmas Spirit

7:35:00 pm



December is the most exciting month every year for me and it's all rooted in my childhood. December meant my mum's birthday, decorating the house with Christmas decorations and setting up the tree (my dad got a huge Christmas tree with a complete set of ornaments as a birthday gift for my mum some 17 years ago), Christmas carols, Christmas day itself, the ushering in of a new year, the countdown to my birthday in January and the fact that all my siblings were going to be back home for the holidays. It's indeed a special time for me.




The excitement is still there but not as before. My siblings are in their own homes now so it's just me and my parents unless I decide to travel which I hardly do. The highlights of Christmas now has to be the carols, decorations and the feeling of starting afresh in the new year. I just love that feeling of peace and fulfillment at this time...the Christmas spirit.

I got this floral pleated skirt as a gift from my mum. There's just something Christmassy about it so I decided to pair it with this lace top which I absolutely love because of the details. Red has to be on the list of my top 5 colours so I chose to go with red accessories. I hope you like this outfit and I feel it's just perfect for church.


It's going to be a busy weekend for me. I have a family Christmas party to attend on Sunday which is like a first. If not, it would have been me eating a lot of meat and salad at home, watching any of my favorite series and then SLEEP! Any plans for Christmas? How do you usually spend your day on the 25th? Do share with me.

Compliments of the season darlings! And a very merry Christmas in advance.

With all my love,
Evita,xx
