Almost Christmas!

Today for my last day of work before Christmas, I went with a casual red and green theme for The Perpetual Student's Wife's Holiday Look Link Up. Wearing red and green together for the holidays may be dorky and cliché, but whatever. I enjoy theme dressing. Besides, they're olive pants (or basil pesto according to the website), so it could be worse. Um, also, pardon the mess in the background. That's where I was wrapping Christmas presents.

Cardigan: LOFT via swap; Turtleneck: Kohl's; Cords: Old Navy; Boots: Mr. Shoe;
Headband: Zing Accessories; Bracelet and Brooch: c/o Wantable

I still have a few things I need to do before the big day arrives (unfortunately, sending out Christmas cards is not going to happen this year...again), but I am fully in the Christmas spirit.

Christmasy things accomplished:

• Put up and decorated a Christmas tree!
• Nearly finished Christmas shopping. Just a few more easy things to pick up.
• Wrapped presents
• Listened to all my Christmas CDs, which I'm sure I will continue doing until Christmas is over
• Watched Love Actually
• Watched Santa Claus Is Coming to Town and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer with Bridget
• Just today remembered to put our fake mini tree on the front porch. Better late than never. We never did put up lights this year...we're slackers.

Still yet to do:

• Make Christmas cookies
• Attempt to fix this dress to wear to church Christmas Eve
• Mend something for my dad while I have the sewing machine out
• Buy my brother's gift
• Clean the house for company

Four more days!
