A Preppy Holiday Home Tour by Pencil Paper & Co.

If there’s one design firm I constantly stay up-to-date with on social media, it’s Pencil Paper & Co. Everything they do is magic! The Nashville design duo’s holiday home tour was resurfaced on Pinterest the other day so I had to share.

What I love most about this holiday home tour is that they let their authentic style take the lead with their holiday decor. Instead of opting for traditional green and red, the Sohr’s use a mix of modern prints with traditional colors throughout their entry way, breakfast nook and more.

If there’s one thing I learned from this home tour is that one can never incorporate too much greenery. The boxwood garland and wreaths add a whimsical holiday touch throughout each and every room. Below I’ve rounded up a few products to help you get the look & you can see the full home tour on Southern Living!

Cyber week is officially here! I’m excited to see what all of the various retails offer over the next few days. In case you’re off from work today or working from home, Shopbop is having a MAJOR sale. What I love most about shopping at Shopbop is that my items always arrive quickly and they make returns super easy. Seriously, there’s nothing more I hate than online shopping then having to make a return but can only do so by going online to “start a return” and print out the shipping label. I know it sounds easy but when you’re busy at work, it’s easy to forget. Any who, I’ve rounded up everything I’ll be shopping today!

Vacation Style

My boyfriend and I are headed to the Caribbean next week so I’ve actually been shopping vacation pieces these last few weeks! What’s awesome about going on vacation his time of year is that EVERYTHING is on sale. I picked up some really cute pieces from the brand Kos Resort. I bought this Kos Resort Printed One Shoulder dress and it is sooooo cute on! I know it’s scary to buy final sale but if you’re a small to medium, I would recommend a small! Other vacation style pieces I’ve been browsing include — white dresses (love this one, this Eberjay Siena Ella Dress and this cupcakes and cashmere one), white sneakers, statement earrings, and Solid & Striped swimwear. Now is seriously one of the best times to shop designer swimwear!

Paris-Biologique-Recherer

Today’s gift guide is always one of my favorites, the top gifts to give the beauty buff on your list!

I always enjoy giving my family & friends makeup or skincare products I personally use on repeat. What’s great about this gift guide is that all of these products are at great price points.

Palettes are always a great go-to gift — my number one gift to give is the Urban Decay Naked Eye Palette!! Highly, highly recommend for your mom, sister, friend or co-worker! What I love most about giving the gift of Urban Decay is that they have a wide variety of palettes to choose from all at great prices! Other palettes on my radar include his Nars Duo Eye Shadow and this Nars Highlighting Cheek Palette!

Other products that are currently in my makeup bag include that would make great stockings stuffers include this Charlotte Tilbury Eyes To Mesmerize Cream Eyeshadow,  this Ouai Matte Pomade (I’m hooked!!) and a variety of Charlotte Tilburry Matte Revolution Lipsticks. If you’re not familiar with Charlotte Tilburry, I started using her products last year and have been pleasantly surprised with her entire line.

What are some of your favorite beauty gifts to give? Happy Shopping! Xo. Lauren

Stocking stuffers are my favorite gifts to give each and every year. They don’t have to be expensive and can easily be personal! Add a monogram to linen napkins, a canvas tote bag or a cosmetic case for simple but thoughtful gift!

Shopbop and Tuckernuck are two of my favorite retailers to shop for stocking stuffers under $50 and $500 dollars. If you have a design enthusiast on your list, take a peek at this Boxwood Ball Topiary Tree, these classic cocktail napkins, this monogrammed marble cheese board, or this enamel ice bucket.

If you have a beauty buff on your list, my number one pick is the Urban Decay palette for $54 dollars! Or the other palette I have on my wish list currently is the Charlotte Tilbury Stars-In-Your-Eyes Palette. I’ve been seriously loving all of Charlotte Tilbury products as of late.

Other great gift ideas include — the holiday nest candle, these kate spade stud earrings and this monogrammed clutch. What are some of your favorite gifts to give each year? Happy shopping!
