I've decided this year I'm going to wear five dresses on New Years Eve. I mean, at such reasonable prices, why not close out 2012 with a bang? And who doesn't love a costume change? It'll be just like that time I hosted the Oscars....

New Years Eve

Fourth on my 2012 favorite things list is Royal Apothic Eau De Parfum in Meyer Bloom from Anthropologie. It's a lovely light and fresh scent. Anthropologie says: Meyer Bloom: hyacinth, stephanotis and lily of the valley mingle with Meyer lemon and warm vanilla. Not only is it a wonderful scent, it's packaged beautifully. It comes with an atomizer ball in a gift box with a cute floral ribbon.

Third on the 2012 favorite things list is Archipelagos's Elder & Olive Hand Balm. Archipelago says it is "a blend of natural essential oils and extracts including Pure Olive Oil, Orange Blossom, Tea Tree Oil, and Sage Leaf - all of which have the antibacterial, cleansing, or other effects." That's a pretty accurate description, but I would describe it as "super awesome-tastic." No slight on Archipelago, I just have a way with words. ... Anyway, I use it on my hands all the time. It's a great blend, not too greasy, absorbs well, and feels oh so good. Perfect for dry winter hands. You can buy it direct from Archipelago, or if you are local to DC you can pick it up at Home Rule on 14th Street NW.

Second on the 2012 favorite things list: Balsam & Cedar by Illume. This scent is one of my favorites of all time. I'm a candle nut, so that's saying a lot. It is one of Illume's holiday scents, so I'm not sure you can get it after the holidays. I always stock up at Christmas time so I can burn it year round. Yes, it's a holiday scent, but for me it reads earthy not necessarily "Christmasy" and reminds me not only of winters but also summers at my Grandmother's home in northern Minnesota. I personally like the candles, but I have used both the room spray and the diffuser in years past and they are lovely as well. You can purchase online at Illume.com, but if you are local they sell them at Home Rule in DC. I've also found them at Crate & Barrel.

Eternal Sunshine Creations Knit Dress
My body type is a bit too much on the curvy side to be able to rock a knit dress like this with confidence. I'd have to belt it most certainly, which I figure would kind of ruin the cool knit detailing at the waist. Maybe not though, what do you think?
Do you think belting this dress will take away from the look?
