happy weekend! If you follow on Instagram etc. then you know I am in Harbour Island! I am SO happy to be here… I think a few days in the sunshine are going to be really beneficial… I’ve been a little stressed out and could use the R+R. So now we are here with Becca + Katie and Katie’s friend Kate… soaking up the sunshine, reading a LOT, and just having some fun friend time. It’s going to be a whirlwind, though! I get back Sunday night and then leave on Tuesday for a quick work trip to LA with Sephora! Have a great weekend! xoxo

UGH how good are these room makeovers!?
I recently discovered that LOFT has the best sleepwear (the patterns are SO good, I want so many more!) These are the ones I’m wearing above. I also have + love these fluffy pink slippers!
I thought this gift guide was very thoughtfully done: what to get every sort of employee!
How friendship changes with age.
This $45 tote 100% looks designer.
A thoughtful post from Jess about turning 35!
This sequin midi skirt is SO pretty – it would be great for NYE. I’m thinking with a black blazer + simple cotton tank OR for something more festive a bright silk camisole (fuchsia or emerald green?)
I really related to this piece on morning routines (especially as my own have been a bit of a mess lately!)
Does Tyrion need these pajamas??? And then I could get these and we could twin!?
Five books to read from African authors.
Love a good cozy turtleneck this time of year. This one is nice and long, and it’s only $39.
Mmmm…. love the sound of these holiday cookie recipes. Such a quality list!
Loooved this article by our pal Alyssa Mastromonaco on cats.

The best red lipsticks.
YUM – easy December weeknight dinner ideas.
I can never seem to get my necklaces just right (they’re always a little too short). I just realized BaubleBar sells necklace extenders which is SO SMART.

Hugh Grant recreating scenes from Love Actually to stop Brexit.
The Old Navy grey leopard coat came in the mail this week and it’s amazing. Looks designer!
RIP to the “sad single girl” holiday trope.
Still my most favorite sneakers. So glad I bought the white!

WOW – I just about lost my mind when I saw this feature on my friend Emma (founder of Everyday Oil) on Doré! She is one of the most effortlessly stylish, naturally beautiful people I have met.

Thanks Charmaine!
I bought that Everyday Oil when you linked it this week and it’s gorgeous. Smells so good, feels amazing on. I love it, thanks for the rec!
Oh good! It smells incredible!!!!
Great list! That Vitamin C article was so helpful! I’ve been thinking about changing mine and that was the most comprehensive information I’ve seen. Thanks!
Agreed!!!
If you like your tie-dye sweatshirt…Amazon sells tie-dye kits—it’s so much fun!
Oh how fun!
Thanks for the great read. Hope you had a fabulous trip with lots of relaxation ❤️
thank you! we had the best time!
I totally clicked that morning routine article thinking it was about a morning SKINCARE routine because I am just so used to skincare from you!! total facepalm but a great article because my life is a total mess in both my morning routine AND morning skincare routine haha
Ha! Hope you enjoyed it anyway!
Ordering the Loft PJs RIGHT. NOW. I’ve been wanting something a little prettier and cute to sleep in since I’ve lost some weight…thanks for the recommendation! Love your site and IG so so much!
Oh good! They are so cute!
The customer service for the amazon tie dye sweatshirt is awful! I returned it because it’s more shiny than the picture shows. States free returns but when you attempt to return the shirt they offer only a 30% refund and you have to pay shipping. Amazon had to step in. Hopefully I’m in the minority.
Oh no! Sorry that happened to you!
Loved the Vitamin C article! I looked in a few of your past posts but couldn’t find anything- do you have any favorite vitamin c serums???? Your recommendations are the best!
Have been working on a post about it. But if you search my blog for Vitamin C there will be some great recs!
Not crazy, because I own those Sorel’s and love them. 🙂 (Thanks to Jess Ann Kirby).
Ha! Jess is the best!
