Shimmering Stuffy

Happy Monday lovebugs,
How are you? How was your weekend? I made 60 maple bacon sugar cookies. Yep. Nailed it.

Ok, moving on. I hope you enjoyed the holiday gift guides last week, if you have any tough ones to shop for on you list, feel free to email me and I would be more than happy to help.

Today we're looking at tweed with metallics. Tweed can get stuffy, adding some shimmer to the weave is just what you need.

A beautiful cap sleeve shift that is just perfect for work or play. I'd add a collar necklace to this number.

J Crew Factory, Tweed Gold Zip Mini, $49
Oh hello black boots and layered gold necklaced. This is the statement piece on its own.

Forever 21, Sparkling Tweed Shift Dress, $25
Ok from this picture, this dress looks like it could fit a third grader, but I'm hoping it's longer in person, because I love the low pockets and the peter pan collar.

Urban Outfitters, CO Metallic Tweed Oversized Blazer, $89
I'm not sure what happened to her pants, but I'm loving this blazer. The faux leather trim is so chic!

Don't let tweed make you feel all skirt suit-y and stuffy, add some shimmer to your tweed.

Be fabulous today!

Foodie Friend

Instead of Friday Foodday, today's gift guide is for your foodie friend. The girl who enjoys a baking, sautéing, eating, you get the drift.

Anthropolgie, Poppy Ring Rolling Pin, $18
Anthro has a ton of beautiful kitchen and home gifts for sale, I especially love this item because she will think of you every time she uses it.

This is a grown up shaker. Williams Sonoma does not mess around and I bet they have some kick ass gift wrapping too.

My favorite art about this seller's cutting boards is the tiny heart cutout. It's simple but special.

What a sweet kitchen set for a girl in her first apartment. I love that the handles are all lime green as stems.

What are you getting for the foodie in your life? Entertaining items, bakeware, food? 

Thanks for helping with this week's gift guides! If you have more questions, you can always email me!

Be fabulous today!

The Furry Friend

I'm just loving these gift guides. I think giving is so much better than receiving, especially you get to know someone better by shopping for them. Today's guide is for your friend who has a pooch. Not a muffin top, a dog. Jeeze guys. We're passed the food bowl and leash stage and you want to get her something she'll love.

Choose from dozens of breeds, this is a great gift for the home.

Etsy, Dog Bow Tie, $30
Sassy pup? Try a bow tie collar!

This Etsy seller has more than 200 prints! I love this affordable print combined with a great frame.

Etsy, Dog iPhone Case, $18
Adorable, retro and perfect for the best friend in your life.

As a dog owner, I would love any of these gifts and I hope your friends and family would too!

Be fabulous today!

The Girl Who Wants Nothing

Happy humpday lovebugs,
Today's gift guide is for the girl who has everything and when you ask her what she wants she says, "oh I don't know." Helpful. So we're going to attempt to the oddball today. The lovable but impossible person on your list.

Design Darling, Jonathan Adler Zebra Dish, $24
A the perfect catchall for earrings or hair ties for when she gets home.

C Wonder, Peanut Charm Necklace, $28
I find this necklace just darling. Perfect for a younger sibling or maybe someone you mentor.

DKM Accessories, Monogram Shoe Clips, $46
This is brilliant. For your preppy friend who has approximately 4850 pairs of flats.

Etsy, Hey y'all sign, $50
For the southern girl on your list, this is the perfect addition to her kitchen. 

How do you shop for the impossible one on your list? I wish you the best of luck. Try Etsy, monogrammed items and even kitchen trays and cutting boards to fit their personality.

Be fabulous today!
