Calming Week

Happy Monday! So I took an unannounced break from the blog at the end of last week to focus my time on my family, but I am back. I hope you all had the loveliest holidays - I certainly did. I am officially in full Christmas-mode (although it's hard to fully be in the Christmas spirit when the weather has been in the 50s and 60s). I need to start the week off on a calm and peaceful foot, therefore I am going to start the week with some lovely Christmas images for inspiration!

Wednesday Wishes

Happy Thanksgiving Eve! With today being the first day of Thanksgiving break I was able to sleep in - it was amazing. I am very excited to spend the day with my family prepping for Thanksgiving and the night having drinks with friends. Here are some Thanksgiving Eve wishes....I hope your day is as lovely as mine!

Thanksgiving Week

Good morning! Sorry that I didn't post yesterday. We are switching floors in my office and I didn't know I would not have my computer to use! Today is my last day of work before Thanksgiving break and I could not be any happier about it! I am really looking forward to sleeping in, making pies with my mother and sisters, many late nights in front of the fire, long hikes through the woods, and spending time with my friends I have not seen in a while. Last year on Thanksgiving it snowed, it doesn't look like it will this year, but I can wish. Today is also my father's birthday. So I would like to wish him a very Happy Birthday!

Long walks through the woods.

What are you looking forward to this Thanksgiving week?

Scarves and Snoods

Happy Friday lovelies!!! It was so cold this morning during my commute this morning and I realized that I am in dire need of a great new scarf. I love the big, chunky looped scarves and soft, bright-colored cashmere. Here are some of my favorite picks for the season!
