Whenever I think of sequins, I think of New Years Eve. Which is funny, because I think I've only worn sequins on NYE once in the past, but I always love them for the occasion. We don't currently have any exciting plans for the evening (it gets harder with a 2 year old), but I'm still keeping my eye out for some good pieces in case we decide on a sparkly evening. Or maybe I'll just wear sparkles at home and be my own party! ;)
Read MoreToday is an extra special day. I am excited and fortunate to be able to participate in a campaign to give back to the community and help empower women. ShopStyle and Dress for Success have partnered with select bloggers to help raise funds for the program that helps struggling women achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help them thrive in work and in life.
Read MoreI bought a new throw for our living room sofa recently, and it is the softest thing ever. Seriously, I wish I could just wear it around all day. Being in comfy, cozy clothes makes me feel relaxed, even if what I'm doing isn't relaxing. Sweater season makes me happy for this reason -- there are so many cozy sweaters out there.
Read MoreFirst of all, let me apologize for the quality of these pictures. We visited 3 different homes for 3 different Thanksgiving meals this past weekend, and at the final stop (my parent's home) we forgot our camera and didn't have it for shooting these. So the iPhone had to step in. It's really amazing with all 3 (4 of us counting the dog) we don't forget more. We did forget the MangnaDoodle too, but we'll survive for a couple weeks until we see Grandma and Grandpa again. ;) (The camera is being mailed tomorrow. ;) )
Read MoreAre you still recovering from your food coma from yesterday? Or do you consider Thanksgiving meal just fuel for Black Friday shopping? ;) I confess I've never been much of a big Black Friday shopper - mostly I think because the Friday after Thanksgiving I'm still pretending like it's Thanksgiving and not looking towards the next holiday yet. It's still November. Christmas is like a month away! So I'm sorry to say you won't find any Black Friday deal promotions on my site here today, but I'm sure you will have no shortage. I think I can be overwhelming.
