Is anyone else completely giddy about the upcoming holiday parties? My favorite party of the year is our company party, but sadly, I won’t be able to go :( I figured I’d put together an outfit that would be ideal to wear—ya know, if I was going. I’ve been searching and searching for a new clutch and the colors of that Loeffler Randall clutch are so intriguing! The brushstrokes are beautiful and the construction is sturdy and perfect for a night out. And paired with those heels? I die. The ankle strap looks so delicate, but in fact, it’s laser-cut suede, so it’ll hold up pretty well! I’m thinking I might need the other color too…happy party-going!

Christmas Gift Ideas for Her

Hey all! I can’t believe it’s nearly Thanksgiving and almost time for one of my favorite shopping days. I don’t necessarily wake up early, but I head out to the mall to experience the crowds and chaos. Jack pretty much thinks I’m insane, but I can’t resist crowded malls and stores. It’s so festive and fun! I’ve put together this first Christmas Gift Guide with a few of my newest favorites. As we’ve been prepping for our London trip, I’ve been eyeing new passport holders and this mint Tory Burch will match my luggage perfectly—plus, isn’t mint so irresistible? My most favorite item from this list? The red Selma. I’ve selected this bag several times, but this color is so festive! I hope you have a great time browsing and shopping this week!

P.S. There’s a Nordstrom sale currently on that has tons of other fun gift ideas for up to 40% off! Shop the sale here.

Top Picks: Nordstrom Clearance Event

||Click on the items for pricing||

It’s Day 2 of the Nordstrom Clearance Sale and I’ve only managed to shop online thus far! This is somehow more dangerous though because I end up adding things to my shopping cart just to “see if I like it in person.” Spoiler alert: I always like it in person. I spent a large portion of my evening (the other part was spent decrypting an enrollment offer by a massive man at Gold’s Gym) carefully selecting my favorite items from the sale. My top pick? Those claret MK pumps. Aside from making me taller, they’re the perfect addition to any party dress.

I hope you love these faves of mine! I do my best to keep my picks under $200 (mostly to please Jack), but there’s an occasional “in my wildest dreams” selection too! Because really, who doesn’t need a “one cool cat” pillow? I most definitely do! Wouldn’t it make a marvelous Christmas gift? Happy shopping!

Love Fool

Yay—it’s Wednesday! The other day we drove up the canyon with B and some good reading material. We envisioned a peaceful, relaxing hour or two of lounging and reading. Well…anyone who knows Bella has to know that that absolutely didn’t happen. Instead of an hour of delightful reading, I spent 20 minutes trying to get Bella to stop wandering away and from jumping into the river when I decided we were done. If she was tied up, she sighed deeply prior to a seemingly endless series of whines and howls. You would have thought she was being abandoned. Two feet away from us. Alas.

One positive moment? When we realized we could take advantage of the pretty lighting to photograph my favorite sweatshirt. I know I’ve talked about it before, but goodness. It’s amazing. I can’t thank Little Bow and Arrow enough. You should absolutely check out their shop. It’ll make you so happy!
