Friends Share the Good Stuff
Welcome to this week’s Walk & Talk. It’s our Black Friday edition! Skip the chaos and the lines. Go for your walk, grab your coffee, turn on a holiday playlist, and settle in with Style Among Friends. We’ve rounded up ALL of our 2025 holiday gift guides into one post to make your shopping simple, thoughtful, and yes—even fun.
This year, we’ve taken the guesswork out of gifting. Our holiday gift guides were created with real-life budgets—and real-life recipients—in mind. Whether you’re shopping for grown kids (and their plus-ones), your significant other, your best friend, or parents and in-laws who have everything, we’ve found something special for everyone on an empty nester’s shopping list.
Need a playlist while you’re shopping? We gotcha and this is a good one! Check out this Spotify collection–it’s apparently the best music for shopping, cafes and fashion stores! Press play to get your shopping experience started!
We’re so glad you’re here. Join us again, same time next week!

Creating a Casual Holiday Outfit
MEGAN : I love leopard during the holidays. Wear it during Thanksgiving, for lunches with the girls, casual holiday parties — straight through New Years. This jacket is the perfect topper to whatever you are wearing. It makes jeans and button down seem festive.

CHRISTA : Not looking to buy a head-to-toe outfit just for the holiday season? Wear what’s already in your closet and refresh the look with one standout piece in velvet, a pop of red, plaid or sequins. A sparkling shoe, shimmering earrings, or a velvet clutch instantly says “I’m here for the holidays,” while still being budget-friendly. Pair it with your favorite black pants or black sweater for an instant holiday classic!

Celebrating in a Stylish Cocktail Party Look
MEGAN : Looking for a reason to buy those amazing red velvet tuxedo pants on sale at J.Crew? Well, here ya go. I’ve found three amazing ways to style these pants for cocktails, corporate or casual. If you can wear it three different ways there is room in your closet for the item in question. Which way is your favorite? Let me know in the coments.

CHRISTA : When you’re the hostess, you want to spend time fussing over your guests, not your outfit! For me, that means I’m wearing a festive party dress! It’s the easiest way to get ready…just add some sparkly accessories and you’re all set for a fabulous evening. I’m sharing five red dresses (ALL UNDER $100) that landed in my cart over the last few weeks, each perfect for wherever your holiday season takes you.
