Stylish Snow Bunny

This year I am finally going on a ski trip! And it’s going to be at Whistler!! I used to ski and snowboard all the time as a kid. But fast forward 10 years, I’m pretty sure I am going to be terrible now. I’m still on the fence about actually going skiing, so we will see how I feel once I am up there. Might just be fun to play around in the snow and see the sights!

But since it’s been so long since I've been in actual snow I no longer have any well fitting and stylish snow clothes. Thus requiring me to go SHOPPING! Here is the ideal outfit I came up with that assures I will be warm and dry on the slopes! And of course includes sequin Ugg boots...I can't go anywhere without a little sparkle!!!

Now feeling more confident… all I need is some rental gear.

(from the left, clockwise)
North Face Freedom LRBC Insulated Pants $159.00
DAKINE Audrey Visor Beanie $30.00
Collection XIIX Basket Weave Loop Scarf $34.00
UGG® Australia 'Classic Sparkles' Boot $169.95
North Face 'Metropolis' Gloves $60.00

I can already tell this is going to be an expensive vacation!

Wear to go from here… The North Face store, then REI, then Nordstrom
…anything I’m forgetting?

Tech-ie Delight

This year there has been an array of tech products coming out that are both fun and very functional. I personally can’t live without my iphone and ipad and am a die-hard apple fan! And come from a tech-ie family! Both my parents and siblings have those products too, so it’s been hard to find some other things that might be nice to get them. Although browsing online I found some awesome stuff for under $200 that will definitely delight the tech-ie in your life on Christmas morning!
Wear to go from here… hmmm, just need to decide who gets what!!

Countdown to Christmas

I can’t believe that it’s the first day of December. Where has this year gone? I swear we were planning summer vacations, bachelorette parties and wedding details just a few weeks ago. Now it’s onto Christmas decorating, baking cookies, attending holiday parties and creating shopping lists.
This is by far my favorite holiday with all the festive decorations that make everything sparkle and shine, and generally seem to put people in a good mood!
I'm so excited to dive into the season and just have fun this year. I have gifting craft days planned, a ski trip to Whistler and hoping to make lots of fun holiday dishes (since the thanksgiving sweet potatoes where a hit! I'm feeling more confident.)

Here is to a great December and holiday season!
Wear to go from here…out to start decorating, cooking and hitting up the stores!
