the holidays : nicole miller giveaway

gifted Nicole Miller dress  |  Urban Outfitters jacket  |  Zara heels

There's something about the holidays that just makes everyone go insane with accessories. I didn't feel the need to throw any jewels on top of this dress and kept it simple with my favorite pair (and most comforable) of Zara heels and a sleek leather sleeved jacket that I bought recently on a whim. The chiffon bottom and side slit makes an otherwise relatively simple dress a little bit fancier and more party-appropriate. Nicole Miller always makes it easy for everyone to style it their own way, so they're giving you a chance to win this very dress to do just that!

For a chance to win a gorgeous Nicole Miller maxi dress of your own, here's what you've gotta do!

1. Follow @NicoleMillerNYC on Twitter.

2. Follow me on Bloglovin'.

3. Tweet me at @kristengracelam with #NMHolidays and comment below with your email address and tell me what you're going to be wearing during the holidays.

Woke up an hour ago, threw on yesterday's clothes, skipped the makeup (mainly because I didn't have any) and came out lookin' like this. Good thing I only saw a few people today, some of which I had incredible sample sale ordeals with (ahem Jasmine), which reminds me - sample sales harbor a certain type of evil person that one should never have to encounter.

I've had this oversized overcoat (ha!) for a few years now and I've never pulled it out of the closet, truthfully was thinking about even selling it. There's something about this overcoat though, that just works and is just so practical for the current 30 degree weather happening in New York right now. I've also never given velvet cigarette pants a second thought, but paired with the right pieces - velvet can be a beautiful thing during the winter.
