This holiday season, I've teamed up with H&M to showcase some of their amazing holiday fashions and gift ideas. First, they challenged me to put together a holiday party look under $100. I knew right away that I wanted to recreate this Taylor Swift look which I had featured previously in a Dress by Number post, so I headed to my nearest H&M store to see what I could find. It was ridiculously easy to get a complete head-to-toe look under $100 that mirrored Taylor's going-out outfit: Black knit sweater (similar), faux leather circle skirt (similar), lacy tights (similar), Chelsea boots, and a structured cross-body bag (similar)! I had money left over to buy this chevron iPhone case (your phone's gotta get dressed up, too). Yes, it's an all black look, but since I don't ordinarily wear that much black, it's a sophisticated change of pace for me. Plus I can remix the pieces in so many ways. I like that it's comfortable, too, because all my holiday parties will involve my toddler as well!

Tip: Through H&M's garment recycling program, I donated a plastic shopping bag of old clothes at checkout and received a 15% off coupon which I applied towards the entire purchase.
