Weekly Wears: Spread the Cheer

This week's Weekly Wears is all about spreading the cheer!  ModCloth has focused this month on spreading the cheer by hand delivering gifts to customers in the Pittsburgh area AND handing them a $50 gift certificate for themselves AND one to share with a friend!  Now that would make me cheery!

They have also sent out dresses to four bloggers and those bloggers got to pick a friend to spread the cheer with.  My sweet, beautiful friend Elsie chose me, so here I am styling my very lovely, fancy dress from ModCloth!  (Cheer!)

Faux fur wrap: thrifted (with tags still on. Yay!);  Tights: Marshalls;  
Shoes: Golden Ponies via Etsy;  Starlette Sparkler: Giant Dwarf

I LOVE focusing on spreading the cheer during the holiday season, rather than getting wrapped up in stress and negativity over shopping and finding deals and parking spots (!), etc.  Let's take this giving spirit and implement it throughout the rest of the year! 
Thank you, Elsie and ModCloth, for spreading the holiday cheer this direction!
xoxo Katie
