American Eagle Outfitters / Aerie Holiday 2011
I was supposed to be getting some Christmas shopping done during Black Friday and instead I managed to splurge on some pieces for myself at American Eagle Outfitters / Aerie. I picked up a pair of AE jeggings, sequin scallop tank, open cardigan with ruffle hem, earrings, Aerie chambray tunic and cropped sweats.
There are still a few pieces I'd like to pick up from the holiday collection, including the AE sweetheart corset, Aerie snowball sweater and bobble party skirt.
If you are looking to get some gifting done, there are tones of accessories including jewelry, jewelry wraps, earbud earmuffs, texting gloves, bags, cosmetic cases and fashion books.

LOFT Holiday 2011
The LOFT Holiday 2011 collection features classic pieces with hints of glamour. The palette is heavy on blacks, grays, and creams, but play on texture with velvet, lace and satin.
Accessories dominate the holiday line and provide plenty of sparkle. Stock up on chunky bracelets and embellished headbands to complete your holiday wardrobe. Faux fur neck warmers and gloves offer a luxurious feel to cold weather looks.
Vibrant sweaters and colorful cords add a casual vibe. Color blocking is prominently highlighted - stay within the same color palette for easy, polished go-to outfits.
