Hi there!

Hope your holiday season is going well so far. Around these cold months usually resort collections debut with different luxury brands. My spin on a resortwear post this year is to make it loungewear too, as many of us are forfeiting that resort vacay for a staycation until some of this 2020 madness subsides.

I have posted about London Rag before, and my sponsorship with them (Car20 is my promo code with them for 20% off!) so with their recent batch of gifted items I got these gorgeous palazzo pants and matching seafoam block sandals with a tie at the ankle. Seafoam is one of my favorite colors and it’s so beachy. These pants can be dressed up or down. As I photographed them in the fall I styled them with my Vici Dolls puff sleeve long sleeve top. The pants will go so well with a tank or breezy blouse in warmer months! This is an easy breezy look and the stretch synched waist allows for a very comfortable at home look too. Loungewear but make it fashion! My accessories are oldie but goodie (& still available) Gucci bag & sunnies, and Ettika hoop earrings. Use my code Carolina10 for an Ettika discount!

The second look is a long Spell & the Gypsy Collective skirt I had been eyeing for a while and I snagged it on sale. It’s still available! Speaking of beachy this one is the seashell print (which I have the boho orange dress in of this mermaid chic print too but a different color you might remember it from the blog recently). I styled it with a tan bodysuit (options on my LIKEtoKNOW.it page for varying ones, I wear this staple piece a ton) and a faux leather moto jacket from Zara (I have two light pink moto jackets from Zara I’ve snagged throughout the years: a great piece and perfect for layering and transitioning seasons). They aren’t avail anymore so I linked similar ones on my LIKEtoKNOW.it, my fave of them is this. My booties I’m wearing are older but I’m linking similar ones I recently blogged about that are on SUPER sale at JCrew factory right now (the Rory Microsuede booties)! When I got them earlier in the fall they were quite a bit more. Ankle boots will never go out of style, and are so versatile with any outfit! My Rebecca Minkoff bag is linked on my LIKEtoKNOW.it too! I also posted to my “cyber week” Instagram highlight all my gift guides including a bananas sale JCrew is having which has been even better than cyber week. My fave pics of things I’ve gotten as gifts (or as a gift) recently and a couple more gifting inspo ideas is one of them.

Both looks above are linked in my LIKEtoKNOW.it page. Download the app to shop all my links there, and I typically tag alternative look-alike items too so you have options within that trend. London Rag and Vici don’t have a presence on @liketoknow.it yet.

Xo,

Carolina
