Festive apparel + Monday Linkup

This is one of those outfits I was on the fence about posting...  While I love the idea of it, the proportions aren't quite satisfactory.  The skirt sits a little higher than I'd like, so my torso looks really short.  That being said the details and color-combo edged it into the "post-worthy" territory.  I especially love the idea of navy and emerald for the holidays.  It's perfectly festive without going overboard.  Also festive: these earrings.  I scooped them up at a Kendra Scott Blogger event a few weeks ago, and they were definitely a splurge.  They were totally worth it though.  The drop portion is a separate piece, so they serve as both studs or dramatic drop earrings.  I wear the studs on a regular basis and break out the fancy attachment every chance I get :)
