Five Things

November 18th, 2011



{Choose your holiday card – playfully customizable}

Earlier this week, while on the phone with my grandma, she said how excited she was about seeing me next week for Thanksgiving. I corrected her, saying that it was still two weeks away, but that I was also looking forward to our trip up north. Needless to say, she was right (and I’m pretty sure she’s not even aware that Thanksgiving always falls on a Thursday). I’ve since embraced the quickly approaching holiday season and have already started stocking up on greeting cards, wrapping paper, and the occasional rendition of “Carol of the Bells.”

{My favorite thing to give for a birthday – nostalgia candy}



{The ideal pinkish beige – Nars Madere Matte Lipstick}



{My growing collection of seasonal wrapping papers from Paper Source}

    Love that clutch! My wardrobe is gradually filling with polka dot pieces. Anthropologie’s online store is going to get quite a workout from me over Christmas this year!

    I have the NARS lipstick and now I’m sad I didn’t add it to my list of things I’m thankful for. It really is the perfect shade, I might need to add a replacement to the Christmas list! That clutch is adorable too!

    Love the candy basket! I know that there is an awesome boutique in Beverly Hills called A.sweeT that do them, so I am guessing that’s where it’s from! Adorable.
