Christmas Color Rock: The San Antonio Way!
When Collette asked me to join her Christmas Color Rock, I knew that my weekend in downtown San Antonio would be the perfect place for pictures. Our Riverwalk Christmas Celebration is renowned for the lights and influences of a distinct Mexican heritage….you just might not find more variety in Christmas colors set to the tunes of Mariachi bands anywhere!

We were off to a Christmas party at the beautiful Westin Riverwalk Hotel for the first night! The gold skirt I selected seemed to blend right with the hotel décor of gold ribbons, ornaments, brocade, and chandeliers. Fashion-wise, this party was all about fabulous shoes and I made sure I captured a few of them for you to see.
Every post this week will introduce you to some slice of our unique downtown at Christmas. I hope you will enjoy the tour. But, today was all about satisfying your taste for color….tis the season to wear it all!
Now, girls, what is your favorite holiday color??

Those are some gorgeous lights!
Gorgeous! I love these colors so much. It must be quite a cheery scene downtown this time of year. And my favorite Christmas color is red, only because green is my all-time favorite color!
You look amazing and these photo, shoes and lights are beautiful. I remember you from Collette's blog. She left the Twitter Tuesday post up for months with your pics. Great for you. Dawn Suitcase Vignettes xo
WOWO!!! These pictures are wonderful. My daughter took me on the San Antonio river walk in the summertime a few years ago and I will never forget it. These pictures were a present to me. Thank you.
Your Riverwalk is so pretty! I would love to scoop that tree up and put it in my living room!
Love your outfit! The gold skirt looks great on you!

What wonderful photos. I love to see Christmas lights. If we had more outdoor outlets, I would put a bunch on our house.
What fun shoes! Lovely to look at but my feet would probably scream in protest.
What gorgeous photos! And you are looking so radiant and festive for the holidays. I've missed all of you and hope to be back it soon.
