Happy Friday! I could not be happier that this week is finally coming to a close and a 3-day weekend is beginning! I am hoping to spend the weekend relaxing and doing some work on new posts. Here is what is inspiring me today from Pinterest.

iPhone Cases

Happy Thursday! I have been in desperate need of a new iPhone case, but can't make up my mind on what I want. These are some of the ones I'm looking at, but send me more suggestions as I'm always looking for new designs.

Ocean City iPhone Case
(I found this one a few days ago on Liz's (of Sequins and Stripes) Pinterest Board. Love it!)
Monogrammed iPhone Cover - by Irresistibly Chic Shop
I love the classic, preppy look of these Monogrammed ones.
Kate Spade NY Airmail Case
NY Yankees iPhone Case
I currently have a Yankees pinstripe case, but the white part
looks so old and dirty - I'm thinking the blue will last longer.
Willow and Company's iPhone Case
How cute is this wool felt and leather iPhone sleeve - I love it!
(Check out Willow and Company's page for more beautiful iPhone and iPad cases!)

Wednesday Wishes

I have been wishing, hoping, praying, jonesing for snow lately. It has been a disappointing winter in that regard. Today's Wednesday Wishes are all about snow days!

Lake Champlain Traditional Hot Chocolate (other varieties available)
I lived in Burlington, Vermont for 5 years so I can tell you this hot chocolate is amazing!
Pair it with their Gourmet Marshmallows for the perfect snow day treat!
L.L. Bean Women's Wicked Good Moccasins
Who wouldn't want to spend the day in these?
JCrew Vintage Pajama Set
I love that these look like men's pajamas, but with the fit for a lady.
Williams-Sonoma Maple Pecan Pancake and Waffle Mix
Pancakes are the perfect snow day breakfast and Williams-Sonoma has the greatest
flavor mixes including Maple Pecan, Cinnamon Graham, and more!
Lands' End Duck Boots
When you get ready to head outside to go sledding or build a snowman,
strap on a pair of these always favorite classics. (They're on sale now!)
ASOS Reversible Boyfriend Beanie
I am always on the search for the perfect snow hat,
and this one couldn't be more adorable (or affordable, only $15!).
Restoration Hardware Faux Fur Throw
I always talk about this blanket, but honestly, does it not look perfect for curling up
with on the couch and watching the snow? (This is also on sale!)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!! So I took an unannounced break from the blog - honestly I didn't know I was going to, but I had the time off from work and decided to just take a full break from everything. It was a much-needed and very relaxing break. I had the opportunity to reflect on the blog and try and strengthen the focus of it. I am also working on a new design for the blog so please excuse the appearance in the meantime!

Today is my 100th post as well! This was a big year for me with a lot of changes and exciting experiences. Here is a quick snapshot of this past year!

The Queen is in.
My first trip to London - and my first international trip.

Bronx Zoo for my 26th Birthday.
2 of my sisters and I at our brother's wedding.

Fall drive and antique shopping.
