Christmas list for the gals

Christmas gift ideas
1-Who wouldn't love a statement necklace? This would be great for all the ladies on your list.
2-Hunter Boots are where it's at this fall.  These are a nice change to the standard glossies.
3-Our entire family loves their tumblers.  Feeling creative? Customize yours online.
4-Bar carts are the cutest home accessory and these would be a great addition to your fashion glasses.
5-Moms would love this soft Chanel scent.
6-We picked up these mocassins for Simon's grandmother.  These are super soft and have a grippy sole so they will be just as safe for her as they are fashionable.
7-My nieces each got weekender bags, monogrammed.  The pink is so cute.
8-I have had my Clarisonic for years and it's the gift that keeps on giving.  This Mia is perfect.
9-My new fave mascara.  I love Dior mascara and this is everything!
10-We spend the summers at the lake and a great tote is a must.  This is a good choice.

What are your go to gifts this year?  My shopping is almost done!  I am ready for family time to enjoy our new goodies and relax.  Eight days to go.....

Patch-y fall looks

Just when Hunter Wellies and plaid were taking over the world for fall fashion, a cute little touch stole my heart.  Elbow patches have been spotted and they are too cute to ignore.  I grabbed this top from Ann Taylor when they had the sale a couple weeks back.  Unfortunately, a lot of sizes are sold out now but there are lots of cute options out there.

This adorable cashmere sweater dress Nordstrom cute patches, only seen from behind.

This cute color block drapey sweater with glittery patches is totally unexpected.

This jacket is too cute to miss and I am loving the warm tweed for fall.

What are your favorite fall looks?  
I am digging plaid, cozy sweaters and am so ready to pull out some boots I can hardly stand it.  
I am ready for another cool front to bring out the goods!  Have a super weekend!

Wednesday Wishlist: Accessories

This week we will finally have a couple cool days and I am ready for more!  Gray bags are so trendy right now and I found this great one from Michael Kors, it's the perfect winter shade.  I love scarves, especially chunky knit ones like these and what better way to accessorize than stack, stack, stack.  These bracelets would be perfect for stacking or worn by themselves.  Lastly, these adorable initial earrings are too cute not to wish for.
What are you wishing for?

Summer Style

August is here and that means summer is almost over.  We had rain 27 out of the last 31 days so I am hoping for a somewhat dry August before we head into fall.  I have been on the go and have been relying on a few pieces to get me through my weekends.
I put together my first collage (thanks for the help Annie) showing some of my favorite pieces.

Elizabeth Porter

Simon got me these earrings at Christmas.  I have been wearing them all summer.  I wear mostly stud-earrings and these are some of my faves.  For sandals, these MKs are great.  They are very comfy and never gave me blisters plus they are cute with dresses, shorts and jeans and have just enough heel to be nicer than flip flops but still great to walk around in.  My watch was another gift from Simon.  I have several of these MK watches.  I love the boyfriend style and favor pieces that are good to wear at work, out and about and weekends.  I have had this bag for a few seasons and finally eyed a new one that I may trade up to.  This bag is really roomy and has been a good buy.

Stripes and basics have been my summer wardrobe.  I ventured out with my first colored denim and picked up these bottoms from Loft.  They hold their shape during the day and are cute full-length or rolled up to a small cuff.  The BR soft long sleeve is perfect for the days I have been on the water all day and I grabbed this cute striped suit while I was out of town and needed one quick. Lastly, another BR piece, I have worn this skirt with every color top from pink to orange to white and it's really cute.

My first collage is complete.  So exciting.  I have found some great summer-to-fall transition pieces and can't wait to create my next board.
