Budget Friendly Holiday Outfit Inspiration: Sparkle On!

Hello Tuesday! So I am officially in the mood for Holidays now that we have our house decorated and we have start of our holiday parties this Saturday. Again, I love this time of year: especially the FASHION!!! This year I am totally all about glitter and sparkle! I am hopelessly obsessed with sequins & glitter everything: shoes, dresses, tops, earrings, pants, etc.! Seriously though, I LOVE IT! I know there are a lot of posts and articles out there right now about holiday fashion and holiday party/event attire, so I figured I would just jump on the bandwagon and share some of the fun outfits and ideas I love this season.
Alright, here we go. If you want some holiday outfit inspiration, I found this great article on Society19 website called 30 Holiday Outfits You Need to Copy Right Now and felt they had an awesome mix of styles and prices for everyone.
I am always on a budget, so I appreciate a great deal. Plus, I hate to pay shipping charges and I like to have the option to return the item free of charge if possible. Sometimes things don’t work out, you know? Therefore in addition to this great article, I provided some of my picks and favorites from the Nordstrom website because they are high quality and free shipping for no minimum amount and free returns. Oh and just know, I get nothing from them for promoting them; I wish. Again, I am on a budget, so I only put items for $100 or less on this list. (Disclaimer, I did not go into tops or pants, etc. I love dresses so mainly focused there. There are so many awesome items, this is just what I was thinking)
