Merry Christmas!

A slightly early merry Christmas!


While I'll be having a break from blogging for a few days (although I'm sure to be on instagram a bit), I wanted to have something Christmassy posted.
I decided to do a flashback to some Christmas outfits from previous years that I could find photos for.

Over the past few years maxi dresses have been my go-to for Christmas day, and I'll be wearing a maxi dress again this year! (I've included some great ones under $100 at the end of the post too).


Fingers crossed you find your perfect gift under the tree. If you're celebrating the birth of Jesus, or just the fact that you have a day off, I hope you have a wonderful time with friends, family and food.

If you can't make it to church or want to celebrate while staying comfortable in your pajamas, check out Church Online, we have some special Christmas services running this week.









And some pre-blog golden oldies!

But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.
- Luke 2:10-11 NIV


Have a great Christmas!

  4. I'll be spending my Spring working my maxi dress collection back up. After losing baby weight and then some, I did a major wardrobe detox and my maxi dresses were hit hard. I think I kept 4 of them, that are too big on me. We plan on having another baby in the next year or two and I figured that was a good idea. So now, here I am, with zero maxi dresses in my every day rotation. I'm very excited for all the warm weather and shopping sprees to follow. Can you believe that before reading your blog I'd never even thought about putting a maxi dress on?! Thanks for all the style inspiration! May you and your family have a wonderful, safe holiday! <3

    It's so funny to me that you guys get to dress all warm for Christmas and we bundle up. Although this year it's going to be warmer than usual

  32. I have always loved your collection of maxi dresses, Mica. And I think a maxi dress is perfectly comfortable and nice for a casual, laid-back Christmas, especially since it is summer there during Christmas. I also love your past colorful and bright Christmas tree and your dog is a cutie pie. These are all great dresses but I especially love the snakeskin one and that watercolor sort of camo one.

    Hope you and your family had a very merry Christmas. Happy Holidays Mica!

    1. The snakeprint one is one of my favourites - even if it feels a little too dressy for most occasions!
