Holiday Jammies

I'm feeling cozy and warm today because I'm thinking about what I wear on Christmas morning.  Pjs, pajamas, jammies, the ultimate outfit. How do you style Christmas morning? Here are some of my picks.

Gotta love a comfy flannel pj set. Target does this one just right.

Nordstrom, Ugg Rylan Knit Slipper, $99
I believe in investing in good slippers. Otherwise you have 85 pairs of cheap poor quality ones.

These are so cute, the lining is unexpected and playful.

Aerie, Striped robe, $39
This is so adorable and perfect for a Saturday morning coffee and bagel.

What do you wear for Christmas morning? Sweats, pjs, real clothing? Whatever it is I hope it's comfy!

Be fabulous today!

Crystal and Baubles

Hey there lovebugs,
Today I'm feeling glamorous but on a budget which means costume jewelry! What is your favorite spot to shop for baubles and jewels? Here are some of my favorite pieces.

These are perfect for jeans or an LBD, they also come in a darker color.


Flashy and fun, perfect for all year-round!

This is so funky and glamorous at the same time. 


This is so timeless and classic. I love it.

So where do you hunt for deals for shiny things? Etsy? Vintage?

Be fabulous today!
