Weekend Shopping

 Such a bad habit, but any excuse I can find to spend a little longer in a warm, cozy bed during the weekend in the morning, I am on board with. One of my favorite things to do Saturday morning is browse the internet for new videos, ideas, home décor, and of course, clothing. 

I haven’t done a weekend shopping roundup in a month or so, so thought it would be fun to share one with you all since the hustle and bustle of the holiday season is starting to calm down. 

One// Varley Fair Isle Sweater 

This sweater has been flooding my Instagram news feed lately, and I am totally here for it. I love the classic cut and style of this sweater

Two// Vara Bow Swarovski Hairclip

I love Ferragamo hair accessories. I have super thick hair, and their headbands and hairclips always hold my hair 100% of the time.

Three// Gohar World Mother of Pearl Spoons, Set of 4 

These would be so perfect if you’re planning to host a New Year’s Eve party. I hate going out for New Year’s and the idea of hosting a caviar and champagne party just sounds so perfect.

Four// Mixed-Media Michaela Midi Dress

I am in love with this dress and the shade of blue – everything about this is perfection!

Five// Cashmere Eloise Cable Knit Sweater

I feel like I need this sweater in every single color. Plus, you have the option to add a monogram!

Six// Le Jean Mid Rise

I love the fact that basically any style jean is acceptable right now. These are such a classic that will stand the test of time

Seven// Carter Jacket

Sezane has their outerwear designs down to an art. All their coats and jackets have such classic lines with the perfect flair of an feminine element.

 Eight// Gia Tortoise Goblet

Tortoise Goblet… Need I say more… 

Nine// Sarah Flint Krystle Slide 

Sarah Flint makes some of my most favorite shoes. I love this style that they just came out with so classic and such a great shoe to transition from late winter into early spring.

Ten// Contour Face

I am here for anything that is anti-aging and improves the appetence of skin 

Eleven// Elemis Superfood Midnight Facial

I have been impress with the Elemis products I have tried so far, and definitely plan on trying this one soon

Twelve// Petite Cable Open Ring

David Yurman is such a brand of quality, and this sweet ring is priced at such a great price point. 

Thirteen// Veronica Beard Dash Bag

Veronica Beard everything is having such a moment right now. I am convinced that their handbags, blazers, and trousers will be a staple for years to come. 

Fourteen// Summer Fridays Lip Oil

I really love how the makeup trends have swung back towards embracing your natural beauty, and lip oil is definitely part of this trend.

Fifteen// U Beauty Then Index Set

I recently tried some of their neck cream and the texture of their cream was just amazing. Always love when brands offer a travel size pack of each of their products so you can try a little out

Sixteen// New Balance 327

This is probably my favorite style of New Balance and the new silver colorway has a hold on my heart.

Seventeen// Necessaire The Lip Balm

A good lip balm during the winter is a must

Eighteen// Roller Rabbit Ski Toil Pajamas

Roller Rabbit is another brand that is having a big moment right now, and I am so here for their whimsical prints and fun colorways!

Sunday Night Thought


 

Hostess Gift Guide

 The hostess gift guide has always been one of my favorite guides to put together. I love Christmas themed kitchen items and home décor, and small items that just happen to make the perfect hostess gift. 

If you have every hosted a gathering of any kind, then I think we can all agree that a hostess gift is always in order. Plus, for me personally, I always feel slightly rude showing up to a gathering at someone’s home sans gift… anyone else? A hostess gift is always a simple and nice way to express your appreciation, even if it is an item as simple as a bottle of wine. Here are a few Hostess gifts that any Hostess with the Mostess will love!

One// Juliska Country Estate Winter Frolic Party Plate Set of 4

Juliska’s winter print will always be one of my favorite holiday collections. They managed to find the perfect shade of red that could so easily be mixed with other holiday prints. Perfect for any hostess

Two// Mark & Graham Celebration Beaded Mini Tray

As far as I am concerned, silver pieces have a place at every single occasion, regardless of how formal or casual, big or small the occasion might be. This is the perfect gift for the classic hostess

Three// Red Tartan Luxury Crackers, Set of 6

If you are going to a small gathering, I feel like this would be such a fun hostess gift to end the night with. Let’s face facts, we all still have an inner six-year-old, and I feel confident in saying, that everyone would experience a level of excitement over this one

Four// Christoper Radko Kris Kringle’s Cookie Break

Honestly, this is a can’t go wrong gift. Everyone always needs just one more Santa ornament for their tree. 

Five// New York City Ballet Tree Bottle Opener

I really love the collection that Anthropologie and the New York City Ballet came out with. It is just so perfectly whimsical. 

Six// Merry & Chic Hardcover Book

I had the chance to flip through this book a few weeks ago, and swoon. It is filled with drink recipes, holiday recipes, and home décor inspiration.

Seven// Nutcracker Cheese Knives, Set of 3

This is a gift where you need to buy one for yourself and one for your hostess gift. Nutcrackers are such a Christmas classic and just really perfect for any occasion.

Eight// Ginori Trinket Box

I dinned at Bergdorf’s Ginori Café over the summer, and feel in love with not only the food, but Ignore dishes as well. They are just so stunning in person and I love the fact that you can mix and match all the colors to your hearts content. Just a really perfect hostess gift for a special friend or family member

Nine// Diptyque Sapin (Pine Tree) Classic Candle 

Candles and wine are probably the two most classic hostess gifts. I really love how Diptyque candles are a step up from some of the other candles out there. Their packaging turns an otherwise simple gift into a somewhat decorative piece

Ten// Pearl Wreath Cocktail Napkins

Love all the cocktail napkins this company creates. These classic wreath cocktail napkins would be the perfect for the friend who enjoys an aesthetically pleasing drink at the end of the day.

Eleven// Chappy Wrap Boxwood Wreaths Blanket

This is one of my favorite purchases I made last year. I am a firm believer that everyone needs a Chappy Wrap

Twelve// Estelle Colored Wine Glasses, Set of 6

Estelle took the social media world by storm a few years ago, and I am 100% here for it. This is such a fun way to add a pop of color to any holiday table

Thirteen// Rizzoli ‘A Life in Good Taste’

Fact: Coffee Tables can never have too many coffee table books on them. I just love how it looks when a coffee table is covered in books, candles, decorative bowls. 

Fourteen// Peter Rabbit Christmas Mug

This is such a sweet mug for those early morning hot drinks.

Weekend Shopping

 I love lazy, cold weekend mornings spent in bed with my 2 yorkies, scrolling the internet and either reading a book or watching some of a favorite movie. I think it is safe to say that everyone is excited for the holiday season this year. Where I live there are some stores who have decided to skip over Halloween and Thanksgiving and go straight to Holiday windows. Honestly, I kind of respect that decision; it takes so much time and effort to decorate for the Holidays, I say enjoy it as long as possible! For now… here are some of my favorites from my weekend browsing. 

One// Loeffler Randall Clara A-Line Quilted Skirt

I’m really into the whole white skirt thing for fall and winter this year. I really love the fact that this skirt has a quilted detail to give it a more season appropriate look

Two// Sarah Flint Mirjana Loafer in Olive Suede

I feel like Sarah Flint is just the queen of fall shoe designs and color schemes. These olive Suede loafer with topped with one of her signature bow details is just fall perfection. Side note: the quality of her shoes are amazing; some of mine are at least five years old and still look like new. 100% work the investment.

Three// Stubbs and Wootton Accoutrement Sage Velvet Slippers

Stubbs and Wootton shoes are just so timeless and so classic. The bow and crown detail on this pair have a strong hold on my heart.

Four// GAP Cotton Oversized Sweater

I have seen this sweater all over Instagram. Oversized sweaters are a fall staple of mine and I just really love the cut of this one and the fact that it is made of a lighter material for those early fall days.

Five// Herringbone Cawley Blazer

Is it even fall if you don’t wear a blazer at some point? This blazer is perfection. Herringbone print, flattering pockets, and slimming fit. Honestly, sent from blazer heaven.

Six// Sezane Gabriello Coat

There are no words to properly describe my feelings towards this coat. It is so chic and just so perfect. Swooning…

Seven// Veronica Beard Valentina Shearling Sneakers

I am that person that will wear a sweatshirt in the middle of summer. I am always slightly cold, so shearling sneakers are strongly appealing to me.

Eight// Sezane Seraphine Scarf

I purchased this exact scarf in the light blue and white houndstooth a couple years ago, and it is still my most favorite scarf I own

Nine// Hill House Hime The Blythe Dress in Metallic Brocade

For the past few holiday seasons Hill House has done this style of dress in various colors and prints, and I have to say, this year’s print is by far my favorite. I will say the only downside about this dress is that it is on the short side, so unless you are in high school or your 20s (aka an age you can get away with it), you will probably need to pair this dress with tights

Ten// Damson Madder Antonella Cotton Pajama Set

Over the past year I have become such a fan of some Damson Madder pieces, pajamas being one of them. The color combo of these and the bow ties just make these so perfect for the holidays 

Eleven// Ignore Oriente Italiano Rubrum Cuoio Rosso Candle

I have a candle obsession and Ignore has just taken it to a new level. These candles are just stunning

Twelve// Merry & Chic

I love this book. Decorating inspiration, cocktail recipes, and recipes from famous women. This is a book worth falling in love with 

Thirteen// Hill House Home Cleo Headband

This headband has Blair Waldorf written all over it (iykyk). The classic print and silhouette of this piece will be in your fall wardrobe rotation for years to come.

Fourteen// Dr. Barbara Sturm 7-Piece Winter Kit

One of my favorite things about the holiday season is all the beauty gift sets. It is such a great opportunity to try out some new products or use as a gift. This seven-piece set is an amazing deal. If you haven’t tried Dr. Barbara Sturm, you need to, as soon as possible!

Fiveteen// Peter Rabbit Christmas Tumbles Set of 4

Peter Rabbit is just timeless and seeing the sweet character created by Beatrix Potter just brings back so many warm memories. 

Sixteen// Slip Pure Silk 4-Pack Skinny Scrunchie 

I love how Slip comes out with a scrunchie gift set every holiday season. I sleep with my hair in a bun every night and this is what I use – they are honestly the best!
