It’s hard to believe that Christmas is over, and the new year is almost here in a couple of days. Since it’s still fresh in our mind and you might still have your red and green outfits hanging somewhere you can see, I thought it would be a great idea to share how you can still wear your holiday outfits after the holidays.

So, don’t put away your green and red outfits just yet. I am going to guide you on how to wear green and red all year round without feeling like you are still celebrating Christmas.

Since green and red are such pretty colors, you would not want to only wear them for Christmas and holidays.

You can practically wear these two colors all year round, but you have to be careful when wearing them. Read along to find out how you can incorporate red and green in your everyday look.

Five Tips to Wear Green and Red All Year Round

Tip #1 : Don’t wear them together

Let’s be honest here that if red and green are paring together in an outfit, it will sure scream Christmas. So, to avoid the holiday vibe when wearing either green or red, you shouldn’t wear them together.

 

Tip #2: Wear it with animal prints

Animal prints are in for any season, so pair it up with your green or a red dress or wear it as your outerwear, will make your outfit look more stylish than looking like a holiday attire. You can choose animal prints as part of your accessories, like purse, leggings, earrings, and shoes.

Tip #3: Pair it with darker color pieces

You can wear them with a darker color like black, brown, navy blue and dark gray. These darker colors will help tone down the holiday theme.

Tip #4: Avoid glitter, gold, and sequins

You know glittery, sparkly, gold, velvet and sequins are the textures of celebrations. If you don’t want your green or red outfit to look like you are going to a holiday party. Try avoiding these elements all together when putting your outfit on.

Tip #5: Pick a different shade of red and green

This last tip is the easiest tip of all, as you can easily avoid feeling like wearing a Christmas party outfit by choosing a different shade of green or red.

For green, you can go for a light green, olive, pastel green, and army green instead of an emerald or forest green.

For red, you can wear burgundy, wine, berry, rust, or brick red, instead of bright red, crimson, or ruby red.

3 Ways to Wear A Green Dress | Last-Minute Christmas Outfit Ideas

3 Ways to Wear A Green Dress | Last-Minute Christmas Outfit Ideas

If you are looking for different ways to wear the same green dress this holiday or any occasion throughout the year, today I have a new post exactly that to share with you.

I picked my green dress as I was wearing it repeatedly and it’s a perfect holiday color.

Find out how I style it in this post.

 

 

Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress

Either it is an emerald green dress or any other colored dress, you would be able to use my three ways on how to wear the same dress on repeat. 

Since Christmas is coming up next week and you might look to get some ideas to work around your favorite holiday clothing without wearing it the same way over and over again. Or you don’t want anyone to spot out that you just wore that dress last week! I get it! I don’t like that kind of comment either.

Trust me, I don’t like when people remember what I already wore but I also don’t like buying new clothes to try to impress people either. If you have the same problems like me, you might be interested in reading this post as I will show you how I wore my emerald green dress three different ways.

The simple rules we are doing here are:

1) Wearing it as it is with some fun accessories.

2) Covering it up with an oversized jacket.

3) Don’t wear it as a dress but instead wearing it as a top.

I really love my square neck dress but the one in this post is old and sold out so I am linking a few of the same styled dresses below.

One: Green Dress with Lace

Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress

Style #1

Instead of wearing your emerald green dress alone without any accessories, I recommend wearing it with a belt and add some sexiness by wearing a pair of lace tights. These two accessories will help draw people’s attention to them instead of drawing attention to your old dress that you have worn many times. They will surely be conversation pieces people bring up to chat about.

My tights are from GUCCI and my belt is from Nasty Gal.

 

Two: Jacket over Green Dress

Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress

Covering your emerald green dress up with an oversized jacket or a long coat is another way that you can wear your dress with confidence as the outerwear will be the statement piece of your outfit. So, you don’t need to worry about people remembering the clothing that you’re wearing so many times already.

Three: Green Dress as A Top

Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress
Green Dress, Emerald Green Dress

Style #3

I love wearing a dress as a top because it serves more purposes than just being a dress. A few tricks here are; 1) if it’s a short dress you can tuck it in normally as if it’s a tee, and 2) if it’s a long dress, you can fold it into half or to the right length you prefer, then tuck only the edge of the folding part in, to make your dress look like a normal length blouse, not all tuck in as it will look like you stuffed a lot of fabric underneath your pants. Got it?!

What Are Smart Goals

SMART Goals are goals that are SpecificMeasurableAchievableRealistic, and Time-based. They are more detailed and specific to one thing, so that it is more apparent to what you want to do. 

 Having SMART goals allows you to have a better chance of achieving your goals. When you have a very generic goal of “Be more active,” you are not giving yourself a clear way to achieving your goal.

An example of a SMART goal would be, “I will go for a walk every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for 30 minutes for the next three months.

S: Specific: Go for a walk

M: Measurable: For 30 minutes

A: Achievable: Walk every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

R: Realistic: Go for a walk, not climb a mountain!

T: Time-Based: For the next three months.

Quick Tips to Achieve Your Goals

1. Write down your goals

Do you know that when you have your goals written down, you are much more likely to achieve your goals than only thinking about them.

There was interesting research conducted in 1979 on the Harvard Business School graduating class to assess how written and planned-for goals effect later outcomes in life.

The graduating class was asked a single question about their goals in life. The question was: Have you set written goals and created a plan for their attainment? 

Prior to graduation, it was determined that:

  • 84% of the entire class had set no goals at all
  • 13% of the class had set written goals but had no concrete plans
  • 3% of the class had both written goals and concrete plans

The results 10 years later were:

The 13% of the class that had set written goals but had not created plans, were making twice as much money as the 84% of the class that had set no goals at all.

However, the 3% of the class that had both written goals and a plan, were making ten times as much as the rest of the 97% of the class.

How interesting and fascinating, right?

2. Set a plan for each of your specific goals 

By setting an action plan for each of your goals will make you be more specific on what action you will have to take to be able to accomplish your goals.

It acts as a road map to your success as it will show exact steps and ways to get to your goals.

You can always adjust them as you go. 

By writing down your goals and putting them in a plan, you will be able to remind yourself and keep yourself going until you’ve achieved your goals.

    5 Tips to Help You Check Off Things in Your Bucket List

    5 Tips to Help You Check Off Things in Your Bucket List

    In today’s post, I’m sharing with you 5 tips to help you achieve things in your bucket list. I  also share a few photos from my last trip when visiting LA where I checked off a few items in my bucket list as well.

     

    Keep on reading and find out all my tips!

    This year I have been focusing on self-reflection and achieving personal goals. Now that the year is approaching an end, I have to say that I accomplished several goals and was able to cross off many things on my bucket list. I was able to attend NYFW, visit the Hollywood Sign, go to Santa Monica Pier, had lunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel, checked out Palm Springs, and went to Disneyland again with my daughters, husband, and my parents in law.

    In this post, I’m sharing with you a few photos from my recent trip to the Hollywood sign. It feels so good to see the real one in person after seeing it in many movies before. Now I am glad I can check this one off my bucket list. 

    I’m wearing the most comfortable jeans and boots from Everlane. The jacket I’m wearing I got it from Uniqlo in Tokyo last year, another bucket list trip I checked off. 

    From a business aspect, I relaunched my blog and am now working on the launch of a few more businesses.

    But the most significant achievement of all was giving birth to my little daughter earlier this year and becoming a mother of two.

    When talking about a bucket list, it is a set of experiences or achievements that you hope to have or accomplish during your lifetime.

    I’m sharing with you below on how you can quickly get started.

    Outfit Details:

    5 Tips to Acheiving A Bucket List

    Tip #1:

    Start from the easy and achievable ones

    By starting from the easy and achievable ones this will help you accomplish your goals easier, and it will make you keep moving for a bigger goal.

    Tip #2:

    Stop all excuses

    I used to come up with many excuses for traveling. I would say I wanted to wait until my babies were a little older before I started to travel again. But now, I enjoy traveling with them both nationwide and internationally. They are only babies once, and it’s so good to include them on all my journeys.

    Tip #3:

    Set aside specific savings for your bucket list goals

    You can make a separate saving for each of your items, or you can set up a savings account for everything in your bucket list. 

    Tip #4:

    Make plans

    It’s a perfect way to get started by writing your list down instead of having them in your head. You might forget or never take any action towards them. Write down your bucket list and print the pictures out and put them somewhere where you will see them all the time. It’s an excellent way to have your vision and determination all at once.  

    Tip #5:

    Eliminate your fears and just go for it!

    You should try to forget about all the worries you have in mind because being fearful will never get you to where you want to be.

    Not mine but see how cute it is and it’s such a great reminder! 🙂

    Last-Minute Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

    Last-Minute Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

    I love last-minute idea type of posts as it is enjoyable to talk about and to bring out what I have in my closet to share my use of the items with you.

    Since next Thursday will be Thanksgiving, you might not yet have planned out your outfit. Luckily in today’s post, I have three quick Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas to share with you on All About Good Vibes.

    Alright, I am going to get right into today’s blog post now as Thanksgiving is only a week away. I found pairing a knit sweater, and a slip midi skirt is effortless to style for any occasion.

    Either you’re running an errand or going on an event, you can grab these two pieces, slip them on and you are good to go.

    What I have to say here is that you can try color coordinating your outfit to match with the season or party you are going to attend.

    I am showing you three easy styles on how you can switch them up so you can wear these two pieces on repeat.

     

    Outfit Details:

    Sweater (sold out, similar here and here) | Midi Skirt | Ankle Boots (old, similar here) | Handbag

    Last-Minute Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

    Outfit Idea #One

    This first idea is the easiest way to wear these two pretty pieces, style them as is, and you don’t need to match them with anything else. You can wear them with your favorite pairs of ankle boots and a handbag.

    Outfit Idea #Two

    This style is an add on from idea one. You can wear a moto jacket over your sweater if you are going to stay outdoors and if the weather is a little cooler.

    Outfit Idea #Three

    Instead of wearing a sweater only, you can wear a cool vintage T-shirt and tuck it in your midi skirt while bringing along your sweater in case you are get chilly later.

     

     

    I love the satin midi skirt with an elastic waistline because I can eat enough, and my outfit still will look great without me feeling uncomfortable. Way to go for a party season, right?

    What’s your go-to outfit when attending a family party?
