Bargainista in the 'Burbs: December 2009

Believe it or not, the best thing about the holidays is not getting the family together to argue about Obama sending troops to war or the fruitcake, it's the clothes, of course!!

While I will be avoiding the "Christmas Chaos" by heading to Costa Rica for the holidays, my outfit needs may be slightly different than yours, since I will be sporting a bikini 24/7. If I were home however, I am thinking simple but cute, followed up by an amazing dress for New Years Eve!

Here are some great ideas that I'm loving right now:

The next two skirts are super cheap and can be paired with very simple tops which should be tucked in. The tucked in action will also make it a bit more dressy. Since I like to have both the dressy and rocker look combined, I would probably pair them with tanks and cool jacket. Heels or boots would both work.

The next two tops would be fabulous with simple pants, I'm thinking cigarette pants with heels. The great thing about both tops is that they can be worn for multiple seasons and would look great with jeans too!
