I'm not one who usually loves the cold weather, but when I found these coats, it made me really excited for the upcoming winter season. I have been wanting a shiny black puffer coat and found this one a Walmart for under $50. The Scoop NYC brand has so many chic, budget-friendly pieces right now. ...

When I found out I was having another boy, I knew right away I wanted to dress them in coordinating outfits while they were little. Especially during the holidays! Everyone always talks about how girls are so much fun to dress, and while that's probably true (I mean, they really do have so many more options) I absolutely love dressing my boys. Carter's has plenty of festive options if you're looking for matching outfits for the family or siblings. I found this Green Vest for George and this 2-piece Sweater + Corduroy Pant Set for Charlie and it was perfect for some holiday photos. ...
I have really enjoyed having my hair shorter. It's honestly so much easier to style and less to manage. And as a mom of two little boys, I am all about the easy-button these days. One hairstyle that I have been particularly gravitating towards is the bent curls look. Or as my hairdresser calls it "fettuccine noodles". It's my favorite way to style my hair and it looks really good on Day 2, which means less work for me. Win-win.
I've been using the Limited Edition Holiday Gold 1" Styler to achieve this look. This styler can be used to flat iron, curl or create waves. Think of it as an all-in-one type of tool for heat styling. The ghd Gold Styler utilizes dual-zone technology for premium performance so you only need to do one pass through your hair. It has two next-generation heat sensors, one across each plate, to control the optimum styler temperature of 365ºF constantly and evenly from root to tips making it easy to curl or straighten hair. I got it at Nordstrom and it would make the perfect gift for the beauty lover.

Y'all already know how I feel about a long cardigan, and if it's not obvious, take one look at my daily outfits and you'll know how I feel. In general, I'm loving the whole long cardigan/duster/knit coat trend. From throwing one on over a lounge outfit to dressing them up with black jeans and tall boots, they're a go-to for me, especially during transitional weather. ...
I don't know about y'all, but this year was a busy one. I think most of us can agree it was an exhausting year, while many of us were trying to make up for 2020, and most plans went back into overdrive. And since about October, I've felt more stressed than usual. After talking to some friends about everyone feeling this way, I wanted to put together a list of 20 things to do this month. But not 20 more things to add to your to-do list - 20 things that will actually make you feel good, many that don't take much effort. Obviously don't feel like you have to do all 20, but I wanted to give a bunch of ideas. ...
If you’re shopping Black Friday + Cyber Monday Sales, you’re in luck. Many retailers have released early sales and I’ve sorted through and found the best of the best. This is a shortlist, but I promise it’s good. ...
