Christmas Outfit

Christmas started at Nonna's house, as per usual

Baby Jesus was born, into his tin pan,
also as per usual.

My dogs are so excited that Nonna is making pancakes

My Zia, Uncle and Cousins picked these wild mushrooms on their way over for lunch!
They are oyster mushrooms

Some of these mushrooms are the size of your head!
They were delicious!

Time to open presents at Nonno & Nonnas!
How cute are they?!

My sister's boyfriend Matt + My hubby Charlie broke out their "holiday sweaters t-shirts"
{I got Charlie this sweater as a Christmas sweater from Brewer Shirts}

I made my hubby take a Christmas picture with me in our holiday gear...

& my outfit photo in the woods next to my grandparent's old chicken coop:

The Real Eve

On the real Christmas Eve, 

we exchanged gifts with my immediate family

Said see you later to our kitty Arnold who was staying at my parents while we went to NY:

Time to go up to NY,
hubby in another party shirt because it was 72 on Christmas

3 hours in the car means selfies with the pug!

Finally made it to our destination with the whole nativity scene
{except baby Jesus, because it is Christmas Eve and he is not born yet}

What I Wore: glasses- c/o Firmoo, lips- Loreal "Rogue Allegro", earrings- Charming Charlie's, necklace- Lulu Frost {gift from hubby for Christmas}, top- JCrew {via Ebay}, pants- Altuzurra for Target, flats- vintage {thrifted}, bag- Rebecca Minkoff

Baby Jesus will be here in the morning,
but for now they are admiring my vintage Christmas flats!

Time to party at my Zia's house for the Feast of the Seven Fishes!

Also got to take this gem of a photo of my Nonno dressed up as an elf,
#priceless

The Christmas Eve celebrations are one of the best parts about being Italian

Twas the night before, the night before... AKA our Christmas Eve

My family has always celebrated Christmas early, 

due to the fact that we are the only ones who live in NJ, 

and we travel 3+ hours to see our family in NY for the real Christmas Eve & Christmas

So the night before the night before is our Christmas Eve

I was so excited that my reindeer sweater from crzybeeutifulshop on Instagram
{that I blogged about in a Sunday Shopping post}
arrived in time for my family's Christmas Eve!

This is my "Christmas is right around the corner" face...

What I Wore: glasses- c/o Firmoo, lips- NARS "Cruella", necklace & earrings- Charming Charlie's, top- crzybeeutifulshop on Instagram, pants- Altuzarra for Target, flats- Marc Jacobs {Christmas gift from my hubby!}

The hubby broke out his party wear...

My sister Bianca dressed up her bully Ellie as an elf!

My sister Bianca & her boyfriend Matt also brought their new margarita machine...

This resulted:
It is nights like these that make life worth living.

Happy Holidays!
Can't wait to celebrate the New Year with these peeps!
