Eat, drink & be merry
The holiday season is the time of year meant to be spent celebrating with family and friends, all while showing off your winter wardrobe. Thanks to our friends at Charlie’s L’Etoile Verte, the models were able to flaunt their styles and talk about their favorite family traditions in the gorgeous, family-owned restaurant. LOCAL Life stylist Roxanne Gilleland made a list and checked it twice in order to compose the best holiday season outfits sourced from local shops and boutiques.
Meet The models…
Favorite holiday food: Really good chili that we make every year. Gift you really want: Probably makeup. I really like Kylie Jenner and how she does her makeup.
