CHRISTMAS IS COMING, CHRISTMAS IS COMING!
Start lighting the wood in the fire place, enjoy a sizzling cup of hot chocolate (with extra marshmallows of course), and turn on ABC Family for their 25 Days of Christmas specials. A few of my favorite things in the Christmas season is a tie between plaid long-sleeved shirts, booties (which must ALWAYS be paired with lace socks), and vests. Of course no outfit is complete without my staple pearls (earrings, necklaces, bracelets; there is never such a thing as "too many pearls").

Essential #1 is this J.Crew Oxford cobalt, red, and
emerald green shirt. It retails for $75, but I never suggest paying
"actual retail price." I am a firm believer that any prepster on a
budget could always find a similar style from either J.Crew Factory, Old
Navy, or Forever 21. |

Essential
#2 is any colored vest to spice up your BLS (basic long sleeve).
Whether it is Patagonia fleece or Old Navy quilted down vest, each
southern belle should have a few stockpiled in their closet for those
days when the sun ain't shinning. | |

Essential #3 is no other than a plaid blanket scarf (#basicaf). I purchased mine from an inexpensive website called SheIn (basically with this website you're one step away from your laptop contracting a virus, because its that SKETCH). Southern Belle decided to purchase a visa gift card, so her credit card information wouldn't get stolen. |

Winter in Florida is more like a judgement call whether the weather that day will be like the Sahara desert going through menopause or antarctic on Christmas day. Never the less, a southern belle can never be caught dressed below a 10 out in public.
