Over Thanksgiving break, I took a quick trip to Dallas for a few days. While I was there I made sure to stop by the Royal 38 Christmas pop up restaurant which is decked out in everything Christmas-related. I thought it would make a fun evening to merrily kick off the holiday season. When you walk in you are immediately greeted with a leg lamp like the one found in Christmas Story. The exterior is has a beautiful canopy of lights over the patio and each table is individually wrapped like a present. Even the cocktails carried the theme by being served in Santa mugs. If you are in the area and are looking for a fun spot, check them out. I recommend making reservations before going since it’s a pretty small venue. Also, the menu is done by scanning a QR code and ordering yourself so when you sit down you can immediately get things moving for your table. It was such a fun place to be for the evening and the food was incredible.
I really love getting dolled up this time of year and decided to wear the cutest black sequin mini skirt for the occasion. Sequins can easily be dressed up or down as I did with a cream-colored funnel neck sweater. I recently grabbed both on Amazon and they will remain staples in my closet for seasons to come. The sweater is so soft and cozy. It would make a fantastic gift for anyone! I grabbed my new favorite plaid pumps that look like a gift box with the highest heel. Then added simple touches like a red braided headband and then gorgeous bow-embellished earrings. Finally, a tiny sparkly black bag tied the whole look together! A mini bag is the way to go when all you need is a lipstick, wallet, and place for your cell phone.
Speaking of lipstick, one simple touch I make sure to add during this time of year is a bold color. Right now you can save up to 28% on luscious lip products, including your choice of two Younique lipsticks and either a LUCRATIVE lip gloss, including three exclusive colors, or a MOODSTRUCK lip exfoliator with the option of the exclusive Peppermint. There’s an upgrade option for your bundle if you add a MOODSTRUCK PRECISION lip liner or LUCRATIVE lip gloss and save up to 30%. I’m wearing Younique’s Moodstruck Opulence matte lipstick in the shade wealthy which is my go-to red all year round. It flatters EVERY skin tone. You can grab the bundle here this week only through December 12th!
