It's down to the wire and you need just a little something to fill a stocking for that extra special chic person in your life....I have the answers so don't stress. Above I have put together some of my favorite lovely gifts that would fit perfectly inside a stocking. However, if you have waited up until now you may want to throw back a mimosa or a some egg nog before you hit the pavement.

Merry Christmas, Dolls!!!!

If you guys are like me, you carry literally EVERYTHING needed to survive in your bag. The Neverfull LV I never leave home without definitely lives up to it's name...NEVER FULL.  You never know what may happen in your day and when you may need something. I have put together some of my essentials.

If you haven't bought an Minimergency Kit, GO BUY NOW! I have bought several and they have saved my life MANY times. These little kits are jam packed with little lifesavers such as clear fingernail polish, sewing kit, double sided tape, pain reliever, polish remover, earring backs, breath freshener, deodorant, etc... I bought mine at JCrew but they are sold at dept stores and boutiques. 

If you constantly lose your keys in your purse like I do, I recommend getting a key chain that's easy to spot. I bought my leather tassel keychain from Gigi New York and love it.

Obviously sunglasses, lip gloss, hair ties, phone case and wallet are a given when it comes to bag fillers. The ones listed are what I own and carry everywhere, everyday.

Even though we have a "notes" app on our phones now, I still am fond of carrying a pen and notepad. I like writing out my "to do" lists, blog ideas, and other daily reminders. I always make sure and have a notepad handy.

I never know what each day may bring or if there will be a time where I have to wait. In these cases, I am ALWAYS happy I pack earbuds. Any time I can fit in a Netflix flick or Pandora I take the opportunity. These were especially beneficial when I had jury duty and any time I get my car serviced...I'm sure those around me are also thankful I pack these.


I hope these little suggestions are beneficial for anyone who is always on the go and live out of their bag like me!

Rodan + Fields Night Renewing Serum

Currently, these are a few of my favorite things. First and foremost, if you are a book nerd (like myself) you HAVE TO order or pick up #GIRLBOSS. I read this book in two days and felt like I could seriously take over the world after reading. It's awesome!

I'm loving the new fall colors Gigi New York has out now. This kelly green clutch is gorgy and if you sign up for their newsletter, you get 10% off! I obviously also suggest getting a gold monogram.

There is a good chance you will see me wearing my Steve Madden leopard calf-hair pumps, Michele watch and green Ray Bans ALOT this fall! These gems are the perfect items to have year round and can all be accessorized for fancy or casual.

Last but most important are my beauty loves. I recently became introduced to OPI's My Vampire is Buff.  Such a great nude! I used the shellac version and am obsessed! My face is wrinkle free thanks to Rodan + Fields Night Renewing Serum aka miracle serum. These tiny capsules are filled with retinol making your face feel like silk while smoothing out fine lines and making wrinkles vanish....I won't ever do without. I figure if this is good enough for Jennifer Aniston...it's good enough for me.

Oh and pumpkin spice lattes are now available!!!! If this isn't good news I don't know what is!!!

Hope everyone has a fabulous Labor Day weekend!  



What I Wore Wednesday

 

 

 

top: Anthropologie (on sale!) / jeans: GAP / wedges: Michael Kors (old) / earrings: Kendra Scott / ring & bangles: David Yurman / watch: Kate Spade / sunnies: Versace (old) / clutch: Gigi's New York

 

 

This is without a doubt one of my favorite combinations to wear from summer into fall. I love the lighter fabrics with the pop of color from accessories and shoes. If you have not been to Anthropologie lately then head out the door NOW! Best sale of absolutely gorgeous pieces! I also live in these legging jeans from GAP...seriously own about 8 pairs in different washes. They have just the right amount of stretch. I am crushing on this entire ensemble b/c it is so versatile and can be dressed up or down. Today I made it a little more casual with wedges and minimal jewelry, which is perfect for shopping, brunch, or even evening patio cocktails with the girls.  Hope you all enjoy and have a great Hump Day!

Football is in the air! It may be crazy hot for the first home game, but I am SO excited to see that beautiful sea of orange! To get you "tailgate ready", I have listed some items that will make you look football glam! Obviously that is a lot of orange, so wear in moderation with other colors like black, grey, gold, silver or camel (I usually always pair with jeans or jean shorts). The Kendra Scott earrings are on MEGA SALE at Nordstrom now, so get those beautiful baubles while they are hot (I ordered mine yesterday!) I hope to see you all decked out this season while waving that wheat and yelling GO POKES!

Above is everything on my "wish list". Literally day dream about everything you see....especially the Maltipoo puppy b/c Lola needs a sister (this isn't happening). If I splurge on one thing this summer it will probably be a Mara Hoffman swimsuit. The colors and patterns she uses are electrifying. I see the new Fujifilm camera all over Pinterest..how cool does it look? SO FUN! Hopefully by September these items will have check marks next to them on my list and in my grasp....a girl can dream right?!
