8

‘Tis the season, party people! Can you believe it? With the holidays (literally) right around the corner, today I’m kicking off my annual holiday gift guide series!! This is seriously one of my favorite times of year. I love, love, love rounding up the best products to give (and get) all season long. From the top holiday gifts for her to the best gifts for the beauty guru’s and interior enthusiasts, I have so many great gift guides lined up this year so be sure to check back every week for gift guide updates!

Don’t worry, I’ve done all the work for you and have legit scoured the web for the BEST gifts to give “her” this holiday season. Whether you need to shop for you mom, sister, or best friend, these gifts are perfect to put under the tree!

A few of my favorites include:

These Illesteva sunnies for the fashionista.

This classic felt hat – great price point and very chic.

The Rowing Blazers coffee table book for the interiors enthusiast. I also love Design in the Hamptons.

THESE are the perfect stocking stuffer as is this Creme de le Creme tray.

I bought THESE biker boots a few weeks ago and they have been on major repeat (i.e. would LOVE these as a gift)

You can never go wrong gifting a plaid shirt!

Last but not least, a monogrammed iPhone case is a no brainer – especially in plaid. How cute?

You know the drill: you can shop each product in my collage below by clicking on the black and white plus sign next to each product. Happy holidays!!!! Xo. Lauren

Hellooooo, November!

With weeks to go until Thanksgiving and Christmas, I thought it was only appropriate to share 11 red statement making pieces perfect for the holidays.

From J.Crew’s Red Excursion Coat to red patent loafers, I love investing in red statement pieces that I can wear to various holiday parties and events over these next two months. Hope everyone had a great weekend! Xo. Lauren

  • This Club Monaco hat is perfect for fall. Also, if you’d like a cheaper version – J.Crew has a similar hat.
  • I want to try this!
  • A girl should own at least one pair of these.

One Room Challenge: Week Four
11

Alright, party people! Welcome to week FOUR of the One Room Challenge!!

I can’t believe we only have two weeks left. I have to admit, I did not get much done this week as I would have liked. Thankfully many new items did ship including my new Serena and Lily Montara mirror, wishbone chair for my desk and my Dash and Albert rug. I have to say, I’m pretty happy with how everything is coming together!!!

As a little reminder, here’s where we started:

Step One: Finalizing new bedroom paint color. Insert Berh’s Blue Me Away.

My inspiration board for some key pieces I shared in Week Two. I ended up with three out of the six pieces below. #winning!

Major desk updates I shared in Week Three. I still need to finalize how I want to style my desk as I don’t want to take away from my Gray Malin that will be above my bed.

Here’s whats left to get done:

One. Hire someone to come install my custom bamboo shades from the Shade Store!

Two. Finalize prints for my gallery wall.
