With the holidays just around the corner, it's hard to not do a post about holiday fashion that incorporates one of the most used gifting ornaments: the bow ! I was browsing the internet for ideas on how to DIY gift-wrapping without buying wrapping paper and bows to kinda break the tradition for a change. I found lots of cool ideas but I also wanted to share with you what I thought would be so nice to add to your holiday outfits. I am a fan of bows, from bow hair accessories to shoes and everything in between. I think they're so feminine and fashionable no matter your age. So, here are some of my picks for how to incorporate the bow into your holiday outfits for a festive look.

5. Medium-size bow shiny gold bow belt over a neutral color formal gown + red lips+ retro long wavy hair = sophistication.
