I hope you all have a great weekend and a wonderful New Year.

I won't be celebrating in style, but I will be celebrating at home, on my couch, with my family.

Rad Sweater Jacket

I am seriously loving this jacket right now.

So cozy (and I'm adoring her hair.)

Get it at Poppy.

I am loving the idea of this banner for a sweet and simple New Years Eve party.

There are tutorials for the banner, the tray, and the noisemakers over at A Field Journal.

Stroller Bag

Why has nobody thought of this before?

These are some super chic diaper bags I could happily get behind.

Check them out here.

Paul + Linda

 

Check out the coolness that is Paul and Linda

(holding a ball of fluff in Scotland.)

Spotted over at Tomboy Style. 

Oh Darling,

I am loving the Fifi du Vie Etsy shop.

They have such sweet bags and prints among other items.

(And we all know I love the simplicity of it.)

Christmas Playlist

 I've created a pretty rad Christmas playlist for your listening pleasure.

After the jump.

There is something so ethereal about simple strings of lights.

Tradition

Growing up in my family, we opened up one gift every Christmas Eve.

I'm not sure how long it took me to figure out that they would always be pajamas.

These sweet pajama shorts are from here.

Bensimon + A Tote

Terrain has some awesome new items.

The Bensimon sneakers are perfect to make you feel European,

and the tote is simply classic.

 

Stark Cases

I love the handmade nature of these Stark iPhone 4 cases.

They all are unique and made of wool, leather, and copper.

Purchase them here.

Christmas is Coming

There has been a lot of excitement in our home about the upcoming holidays.

(Namely, a lot of rearranging of ornaments on the tree by our 2 year old.)
