As much as I adore getting all dressed up for a fancy Holiday Party at some insanely elegant hotel, I can’t get enough of those casual holiday gatherings where it’s just a few close friends at someone’s house catching up over a few bottles of wine.  Over Thanksgiving weekend, I celebrated my Dad’s 60th Birthday with close family and friends. Aside from Thanksgiving, this was the best way to begin the holiday season. In honor of the occasion, I wore one of my favorite casual chic outfits of black leggings and boots combined with a stylish animal print jumper.  While waiting for the guests to arrive, I took a few pictures.

Disclaimer: I actually have no idea how to play piano or any other musical instrument. I just thought it was a good backdrop for this photo shoot.
