Happy Monday, everybody!
Before we get started today, the winner of the Gucci bag giveaway is Sarah Miller Salazar! Congratulations, Sarah!!! Please respond to Shay’s e-mail within 48 hours to claim your prize.
I hope all of you had a wonderful weekend with your people. We’re over here just trying to get things checked off our lists, while still taking time to enjoy the season. Because the countdown to Christmas is on! We’re talking 10 days!
Ever since I featured the SPANX faux leather leggings last month, I’ve received soooooo many requests for tops that can be worn with them. Well, I found 2 great ones that I’m really excited to share with you today. They are both SUPER affordable and perfect for any last minute holiday parties you might have this weekend!
OUTFIT #1
For the first leggings appropriate top, I found a great v neck sweater! It’s lightweight, drapes perfectly, and is plenty long for leggings. It’s oversized, but I still stuck with my regular small to make sure it would be long enough for leggings.
I picked this lovely green color since it’s so appropriate to the season, but it also comes in a beautiful Christmas red and 6 additional colors. This is a really wonderful basic, and it’s only $19.99!

The faux leather leggings are amazing quality, they wash well, they don’t stretch out, and perhaps most importantly – you will feel amazing in them! I size up to a medium in these (I wear a small in all other leggings), and they fit perfectly. I’m guessing a small would work too, but I really like the comfort level of the mediums. They are a couple of inches too long on my 5’4″ frame, but I only wear them with tall boots, so that’s not a problem. And that’s great news for you tall girls that would like to wear them with heels!
They suck you in and totally slim you down, while still allowing you to breathe. It’s a thing of wonder.

Let’s talk about the boots.

They are from Marc Fisher and totally hot.
The chunky heel makes them easy to walk in, but they do have a pointy toe that might be uncomfortable for those that don’t have narrow feet. They were true to size for me.

The ties in the back and the silver line at the heel are such nice design details. They are so sassy!
And through tonight, they are ON SALE for ONLY $83.40 (regularly $139).

I love every single piece I’m wearing and how they all came together for this festive look.

This studded cross body is extra fabulous.
It can be carried as a cross body or a clutch, and I love it both ways. As a cross body, it has a great black metal chain as the strap. The texture of the bag and the studs make it perfect for a night out on the town.

OUTFIT #2
This next top is a poncho, and I switched out Christmas green for this beautiful Christmas red.
The flowy nature of the top makes it perfect for holiday parties where you might be indulging in some holiday treats and/or cocktails. #allegedly

It’s perfect on my 5’4″ frame with leggings, but if you are over 5’4″, I’m not sure it would be long enough.

Still, the top is great and would be awesome paired with some skinny jeans.
It has oversized dolman sleeves, fitted cuffs with button cuffs, and a handkerchief hem. It’s so soft and very comfortable.
It’s also on sale through tonight for just $24.99 (regularly $59.50).

The fitted cuffs with the buttons give it such a unique look.

And there’s really no denying that the leggings, the boots, and the bag are all smokin’ hot.

That’s it for the outfits today, but if you still need some last-minute Christmas presents, you need to check out some of the amazing items I ran across. All of these items ship immediately and you can find stuff for the whole family!

I finally caved and bought the Spanx leggings for both my daughter and myself. I LOVE them! Thanks for the sweater options! I wore mine Saturday with a plaid tunic and cape sweater. Super comfy!!!
Narci says
Those leggings are my absolute favorite!! Love then so much!
Kathy says
Love that red poncho top with the spanx and OTK boots- you look stunning!
Sheaffer says
Thank you so much, Kathy! I always love hearing from you!!!! xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂
Shay Shull says
I’m partially so happy I finally bought Spanx leggings because of you…and partially so mad because you didn’t drag my butt to the store and make me buy them sooner. I mean, really, Shay? When am I going to learn? When Sheaffer tells me to…I should always act. xo
April says
I love that red poncho sweater! I finally caved and bought Spanx leggings, but I’m afraid I’m going to be sad that I didn’t get the leather ones. I just got regular black ones. Your hair looks great in these shots.
Merry Christmas!
Sheaffer says
Awww! Thanks, April! Merry Christmas to you!
Tammy says
Love the outfit suggestions for the SPANX leggings! How about a tunic suggestion for those of us that are NOT 5′ 4″! Us tall girls want to look cute too!
Sheaffer says
Hey, Tammy! I’ll try to find some for taller girls too! xoxo
Karen Ward says
Tammy, that green sweater featured in the first shot is shown on a 5’10” model on Macy’s website. It looks great on her!
Sheaffer says
Great point, Karen! xoxo
Joanne says
Those are both super cute tunics and perfect for the holidays too.
Erika Slaughter says
Love those leggings!! On repeat around here!
Kim S says
Slightly off topic. But I went to Nordstrom over the weekend and got my first pair of Born boots. Why did I wait so long to get real leather boots? They are so worth the money!
Sheaffer says
Sooooooooooooooooooooooo worth it, Kim!!!!! Glad you love them! xoxo
CE says
Hey Sheaffer and fellow shorter ladies- if you purchase the leggings directly from Spanx.com instead of a department store then you can get them in petite length!! 🙂
Sheaffer says
Great tip! Thanks, Carly! xoxo
April Thompson Parrish says
Purchased these Spanx and I’m in LOVE!!! The red sweater is sold out!?
Love these outfits on you!
heather says
Just curious if the tunic and poncho were true to size? What sizes did you order in both?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Heather! I’m wearing a small in both! Both oversized! xoxo
