Are we tired of gift guides? Yeah? Well, I'm sorry, but I'm putting this one out for all of the girls who have one dude left on their list. Their dad/brother/uncle/bf/brother-in-law/etc, let's go ahead and try to save the day.

Fringe Benefits

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I thought we would spice things up on this wintery Monday and look at some sassy skirts. These skirts are not meant for your 9-5, your dinner with gramma, or Sunday church. These skirts are meant for dancing, for dates, and for daring evenings out. Today, we look at fringe tiered skirts. Why? Because these minis have movement and flare and they are perfect for perking up your Monday.

Forever 21, Tiered Fringe Mini Skirt, $19
Three layers or fringe makes this skirt perfect for the dance floor.

Nordstrom, Vince Camuto Fringe Pencil Tiered Skirt, $96
Zigzag fringe? Don't mind if I do Vince!

Last Call Neiman Marcus, Max Studio Tiered Faux Leather Skirt, $59
All over mini fringe on a mini skirt, this is a party.

Singer22, WYLDR Keep It Together Mini Skirt, $58
The price point on this mini is so easy on the wallet. I love the almost confetti-like look.

You can buy a sparkly holiday dress, or a velvet mini for the company party, but these options will work for a night out any day of the year.

Be fabulous today!

Friday Foodday

Happy Friday lovebugs,
Here are my favorite recipes this week.

Harriet's Highball
c/o Five O'Clock Cocktails

Ingredients

1 1/4 ounces vodka

1/2 ounce Campari

About 2 to 3 ounces orange juice

Directions

Combine all 3 ingredients in an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously for about 20 seconds. Strain into a martini glass, a cocktail coupe, or an ice-filled highball.

Totchos

c/o Buns in My Oven

Ingredients

1/2 cup cooked leftover taco meat (shredded chicken or pork would be great too!)
grated cheese
guacamole
sour cream
pickled jalapenos
diced tomatoes
cilantro
Cholulua, or your favorite hot sauce

Directions

Bake the tots according to package directions. When the tots have five minutes remaining, remove from the oven and sprinkle on the meat and cheese. Return to the oven to finish cooking.
Remove from the oven and load up your toppings.

Peppermint Puppy Chow

c/o Shugary Sweets

Ingredients

• 16oz Vanilla candy coating (candiquik)
• 1 cup Andes Peppermint Crunch Baking Chips
• 12 cup Chex cereal (I use a combination of the rice and the corn flavors)
• 2 cup powdered sugar
• 6 regular sized Peppermint Candy Canes, crushed

Directions

1. Place vanilla candy coating and peppermint crunch baking chips in a large microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 30 second intervals, mixing between each interval. Mine took 2 minutes total. Stir until smooth.
2. Place cereal in a very large bowl. Pour melted chocolate over cereal. Add about 3/4 of the crushed candy canes. Mix until all the cereal is covered in chocolate. Add powdered sugar and stir until fully coated. Sprinkle with remaining peppermint candy canes. Store in an airtight container for up to one week. Enjoy!

Call Me Cozy

Let's talk cozy. Let's get snuggly with our outerwear. I'm talking about the sweater coat. It's a simple and lovely way to stay warm while looking chic.

Piperlime, JOA Check Sweater Coat, $89

I love this coat. It makes a statement and the black piping along the hem is a great detail.

Forever 21, Collard Crossover Sweater Coat, $42

As F21 states: its a cozy yet functional way to do outerwear.

Shoptiques, Damask Sweater Coat, $98

A dressier look and it is perfect for an LBD. Leave it open or add a wide belt.

Shoptiques, BDG Hooded Sweater Coat, $70

How winter wonderful is this cream? I love it with a longer necklace and maybe a marsala colored tank.

What do you think about the sweater coat? Cozy, comfortable, and casual at its best.
