A Plaid Vest & $1000 ASOS Giveaway

December 19, 2017

Vest // Jeans // Basic Tee // Sneakers

Totally feel like a walking Christmas tree in this plaid vest and it couldn’t make me happier! haha. T-minus 6 days until Christmas morning and I think the only main goal on my list this week is to accomplish making some Christmas cookies. Kyle has been working like a mad man lately so all shopping and prepping has been left to me. I don’t mind because I am a total festive nerd at Christmas. But Christmas cookies aren’t my strong suit. I grew up eating this “cookie” that consist of ZERO baking! Which if you haven’t already caught on, I totally suck at baking. Like Easy Bake Ovens don’t even work for me. These cookies are super tasty and remind all the Christmases I had as a child. Super easy, two Ritz crackers filled with peanut butter like a sandwich, than coated in melted white chocolate and sat our to fully cool before enjoying the oh so sweet flavor. I know, easy peasy but for this not so Betty Crocker gal this is a big undertaking. I feel like if I dress in this ever so festive plaid vest it will help me own the part of “Christmas Baker” and I will rock at making these cookies. LOL, who knows but I’ll give it the good ‘ole college try!

If you’re looking for a gift for the super festive person in your life, look no further than this vest. It will have them beaming, PROMISE! And as for me, well I am feeling so much like Santa this week that I thought I would spread the chance for you to win a $1000 ASOS Gift Card Giveaway today. All the details on how to enter are below. Just as easy as my Christmas cookies and you don’t even have to move from your seat!

Holiday Sequin Skirt

December 14, 2017

With all things Holiday happening over these next few weeks, I couldn’t not share the most perfect skirt for all those events! Who’s with me on wanting to hide the “food baby” we all tend to get when indulging in those festive treats? The elastic waist this sequin skirt will let you have a few too many cookies and cocktails without ever letting others know. I have styled it with an oversized sweater, velvet bodysuit, and long sleeve fitted blouse. It’s super easy to change the look of this super festive skirt, so investing in it’s UNDER $50 self is wellllll worth it!

This skirt bring me to our Christmas Eve plans! Yes, I plan to wear this sparkle babe on the day before the Big Man delivers his gifts. Well all we have “planned” as of now is dinner, and it’s at one of my favorites! I leave there every time we go with a total food coma. Whatever we generally have planned after words gets kicked to the curb as we would rather be cuddled up snoring in bed. Looks like I’ll have to set the Keurig to auto to wake us up for Christmas morning, haha. Should I tell you where this magnificent place is, OR should I wait and share it with you when we go next week?! I think I’ll keep you in suspense 🙂

I am trying to find other things that are festive for us to do during the day, so Houston Loves: Send me your fun Christmas Eve activities! Please and Thank You in advance. I am just feeling blah lately. And that could be because I have a sweater weather body and should have a bikini body since we will be on the beach of Miami on December 26! I just don’t have the motivation to be super healthy before we leave. Guess I’ll just my usual self with “Suns Out Buns Out” while we’re there, lol. Don’t worry I’ll share all the hot mess express fun with you on Instastories if you want to see all the ridiculousness.

OOOOH before I forget, I am teamed up with a only a few great bloggers to give away a $200 Nordstrom gift card here! Go enter where you see this skirt so you can shop until your heart is content.

Holiday Party Bar Cart Styling

December 12, 2017

Mistletoe & Martinis, anyone?! Styling a bar cart is something I have wanted to do for a few years now. Last year my sweet Mother-In-Law gave me this bar cart for Christmas, and FINALLY I have it styled for all things Holiday Party! In our family, Bar Carts aren’t usually functioning pieces of décor. We all end in the kitchen perusing through all the snacks and whip up on our cocktails all while leaving a mess hind. I thought why not show off some wine bottles in cute little sweaters, with adorable cocktail napkins, some mixers, and the MUST HAVES (Gentlemen Jack Daniels & Bailey’s Irish Cream) for any festive cocktail. I try to make it function for our not so conventional family, yet still be a stylish party bar cart.

Most of the décor you see here I snagged from my favorite place to shop all things Home Décor, HOME GOODS. I am not able to link those things for you, but do look to see where your closest store is, because you most definitely need to go do some damage on your wallet at one. You will thank me.. Promise! I have many banner ideas you can get here. And if you’re still looking for the perfect bar cart I have linked a few of my favorites below that are NOT going to break the bank. That’s what took me so long to find mine. finding one that matched our home, and wasn’t ridiculously priced. When I did find mine, my Mother-In-Law said “you better not buy that yourself because that’s your Christmas gift” haha. She is the sweetest and I love love love our Bar Cart!

A Cozy Sweater

December 5, 2017

I found it! The perfect cozy sweater that makes you look winter chic, with the smallest amount of effort all while you feel like you’re wearing pajamas. This cozy sweater is by far my favorite out of all my sweaters, and because it’s so perfect they made it in 7 colors so you can wear it everyday if your heart desires. I sized up one size (XS to Small) in this sweater for a more oversized look. I would HIGHLY suggest others to do the same. You can pair this sweater with your favorite sequin skirt, velvet joggers, or distressed denim and change the whole look of it for any occasion.

I have already most definitely planned to wear this cozy chenille sweater while traveling to Miami this Christmas with our family. I’ll have the airport security asking can they touch my sweater because it look’s so soft rather than asking to pat me down per their usual protocol, haha. I am telling you, there isn’t one person who won’t love this sweater. So even if you feel like you already have your closet on winter essentials overload, with it being UNDER $50 it’s the perfect gift for your sister, mom, or bestie for Christmas. I also shared another great chenille sweater with you a few weeks back here that’s an even better bargain and it’s from one of our favorite retailers!

If you are a bar cart home décor love, I want to give you a heads up that I will be sharing my bar cart styling for the Holidays here on Thursday so be sure to subscribe so ya don’t miss it 😉

Coffee Talk In Christmas Pajamas

November 30, 2017

Happy Thirsty Thursday! And by thirsty I mean I am thirsty for my favorite blueberry coffee. This is totally unsponsored, and let me tell you this coffee tastes like you’re drinking a fresh blueberry muffin pumped with caffeine! Too delightful for words PROMISE. Isn’t one of the coziest part about Christmas the super cute pjs designers come out with?! It makes drinking your favorite coffee that much more festive.

As a kid my mom would let us open one gift on Christmas Eve night and it was always the cutest Christmas pajamas we would wear for Christmas mornings. This made for the perfect kodak moments, and not to mention left us with super fond and festive memories. I am sure we were not the only family who took part in this fun tradition so I figured I could share some super cute pajamas for you to relieve some of those childhood memories on this year’s Christmas mornings. I’ll be totally honest, we meet my in-laws every Christmas morning for breakfast at our local I-Hop and I will most definitely be sporting one of these cute ensembles, haha! So for my Houston girls, if you see me out on the morning of the big day in my pjs chowing down on french toast, DON’T JUDGE lol!

This is just the first of many festive Holiday posts to come over the next 5 weeks so put your festive panties on and let the glitter flow!
