Pop the Champagne its NYE

Its NYE!! Time to pop the champagne! (or in my case, sparkling cider) I can't believe its almost 2015! This year has flown by, and looking back there were some awesome memories made this year, and also some very hard and dark times for our family. I'm so excited to start a new year with new goals, and a clean slate. My New Year resolution is to work harder on compassionate service. I always get these inklings to bring cookies to a neighbor, or call a certain friend out of the blue. I live such a busy life, I sometimes ignore it. Not anymore. I also want to start eating healthier and exercise more often, but seriously who doesn't say that? haha 2015 is going to be an amazing year!

Todays post is inspired by all things glam, and how to dress up to ring in the new year! I am obsessed with this gorgeous jumpsuit from Avenlie. I featured it in red here and must admit, I love it even more in gold. There is a similar version sold at Nordstrom for double the price and they are almost identical. Trust me, this is a deal you do not want to miss! I hope you all have a fantastic new year! What are all of your New Year resolutions?

NYE Outfit Ideas

You guys, I can't even believe Christmas is over. It makes me so unbelievably sad, and I'm not ready to admit it to myself. My Christmas tree is still up and I'm still drinking hot cocoa out of a santa mug, with a candy cane on the side. Im pathetic, I know. Now that the New Year is fast approaching, I thought I would put together a post on NYE outfit inspiration. Heaven knows I have done enough glitz and glam posts lately, might as well put them to good use right? I hope you all have a Happy New Year! XOXO

It came without ribbons, it came without bows....

Merry Christmas eve everyone! First of all, I just want to thank all of you for your love and support the last year and a half. When I started Kiss Me Darling I had no idea what I was getting into. I had no idea it would become this successful and bring so many amazing people into my life. Having a fashion blog is unbelievably fun, but also very hard and trying at times. I am thankful for my loyal followers who have made it all worth it. It really does mean the world to me and I am so blessed to have you all in my life. This holiday season I am feeling especially grateful for my beautiful family. We are most certainly not perfect, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I am grateful for my Father in Heaven and for letting me keep them, and for our savior Jesus Christ who died for our sins so that we could be here on this Earth today. I take comfort in knowing that he knows and understands exactly what we are going through. Every tear, every sorrow, we are never alone. Tomorrow we celebrate his birth. I hope you will all watch the video I posted below, and always remember the true meaning of Christmas. Christmas isn't about all the presents, candies, and parties. It is much more than that. He is the gift, our Savior Jesus Christ. I love him, and am blessed immensely blessed for all he has given me. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!

Holiday Outfit

Fur & sequin are two things I think of when it comes to outfits for the holidays. I wore this outfit to my work Christmas party and loved how my favorite fur vest completed the whole ensemble. When sparkles meet fur, you just can't go wrong with that. It's also the perfect pair for those New Years parties. I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!! I know ill be spending LOTS of time with my little family and enjoying every second.

One Boot- Three Ways featuring Rack Room Shoes and USTrendy

Merry (almost) Christmas Eve Eve! Yep, thats a thing! My family and I always have so much fun on Christmas eve eve, and its been a tradition of ours for years. We usually go to temple square, or last minute Christmas shopping, sometimes to a movie or out to dinner. Today I will be wearing these adorable over the knee boots from Rack Room Shoes. They are the perfect transition shoes from day to night. Not to mention, they are totally comfy! I wore them shopping a few days ago, and then dressed them up for dinner with my family. On one occasion I paired them with this gorgeous leopard coat from USTrendy. Oh my, I was in heaven. Leopard, plaid, over the knee boots, my dream come true!! In my opinion, every girl needs both of these items in her closet. Hope you have all have a happy holiday and enjoy your time with your friends and family! I am so grateful for all of you and can't thank you enough for your support. XOXO
