Christmas Decor Makes Me Happy

December 8, 2012

We’ve actually had almost all of our Christmas decorations up since Thanksgiving Day.  It’s one of the traditions in our house.  After we eat our Thanksgiving meal we start the decorating process.  Since then, I’ve added a few new things here and there.  I thought I’d share a few of our decor items for this year.
Our Christmas tree and village

Christmas village that my kids put out every year near the tree.  They add a new house every year.

Yes, I already put these in a previous post.  That’s because I am LOVING these sequin and glitter candles that are in the candelabra on my fireplace hearth in the tv room.

Decorated mantel by the kitchen table.  The presents light up.

If you live in Texas then you know Santa likes to wear his finest cowboy attire.
A decorated mantel in my kitchen.

It has been quite warm here in Texas.  However, a few days from now we actually have a chance of snow.  A sprinkling of snow, that is.  The Dallas area is a funny place with the weather.  It just depends  on the direction of the wind in determining the temperature.  One day we have 75 degrees and the next it could be 35 degrees.  I’m looking forward to the cold for a few days.  It feels more like Christmas when it’s actually cold.

I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season so far!!

    So pretty! The temps have been the same way in Kentucky lately. I’ve had the windows open the last few days and now there is a small chance of snow in the forecast but the temps are going to drop! Sending love to you and your family this Christmas!

One denim jacket, three different vibes… How I One denim jacket, three different vibes… 

How I style my denim jacket:

💙 With my comfy black pants for a casual, sporty look to run errands.
💙 Over a flowy maxi dress for effortless polish and to stay warm during a lunch date.
💙 Styled denim-on-denim for that cool-girl, classic feel that goes everywhere!

That’s why a great denim jacket is my ultimate wardrobe MVP—it pulls every outfit together without even trying.🙌

Which look is your favorite—sporty, chic, or classic? Tell me in the comments ⬇️ and tap the ❤️ if you think a denim jacket is the MVP for Fall.

You can find these styles and more at the @LiverpoolLosAngeles website.✨

My first Jude Connally dress and now I get the hyp My first Jude Connally dress and now I get the hype! 🙌

This new Fall print + the classic shirtdress style = perfection. Made from their signature Jude Cloth, it’s stretchy, wrinkle-free, machine-washable, and always keeps its shape (which makes it perfect for travel too). Basically, the easiest dress ever—comfort and a polished look in one! 🍂✨

This style is available in several prints and solids. It’s a wardrobe staple.

Would you style this with boots or heels?

💖Let me know if you’d like me to send you the LINKS for my outfit!💖

Don’t let the seasons fool you, SPF is a year-ro Don’t let the seasons fool you, SPF is a year-round necessity! Protect that skin, rain or shine!

If you grew up in the 70’s and 80’s and even the 90’s, then you probably remember that getting a tan was cool. Oh, how we were fooled!

Now we’re all suffering with sun damage and are maybe looking a little bit (or a lot) older than we want. 

I’m always exploring new sunscreens and this one is a winner! It’s super lightweight and easy to apply. Thanks Shiseido!
