What's What

Hello lovely readers!  I hope you and yours had an amazing holiday.  We had such a fun, memorable Christmas!  It was our first Christmas in our new house and the first time for me to host Christmas lunch.  Both were so much fun!  We made memories I will treasure in my heart for many years to come.  

 I hope you had a special holiday and are gearing up for an amazing New Years!

1.  Christmas Day Attire

 What to wear on Christmas Day can be hard because I want to be comfy but stylish at the same time.  I knew I would be in the kitchen so I didn't want a big sweater or anything that would make me too warm.  I snagged this top on sale at J.Crew and it was the perfect thing to wear.  I will be sporting this all winter long!

2.  Nordstrom Poncho

 I got this amazing poncho as a gift and I have been living in it.  I put it over PJs when I'm cold or wear it with all black to run errands.  It is soft and just the right thing to throw on right now.

3.  New Years Eve Menu

 I have been working on our New Years Menu since Christmas Day, ha!  I'm excited to cook a great meal and pop some bubbly at home.  I think I've decided on Mango Chicken Curry over rice.  I'm gonna start off the meal with bacon wrapped dates.  Here is the Mango Chicken Curry recipe I'm going to be cooking!

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleeding and was away from home and my

At Home Facial Favs

Image
Happy Monday!  I hope you and yours had a great weekend.   On Sunday I gave myself an at home facial and documented some of it on my instastories and got 100 questions, ha!  So I figured I would share what I used here.   The first question I got was the frequency in which I do at home facials and I don't do them as much as I want to or probably should.  I aim for once a week but it's probably every other week.  I love going to a spa and getting a kick ass facial but there isn't always time and sometimes they can be pricey so I've developed an at home routine for myself. I will say as I get older my skin is changing so I'm having to investigate new and different products.  My skin is sensitive, prone to breakouts and can be super dry and super oily so it's a constant juggle for me to find products that actually work for me.  Recently I've been using a ton of philosophy products and I have loved every, single one of them so far!  I also love that you get

The Power of Positive Thinking

Happy Hump Day readers!!  I hope you're having a great week.  From time to time I get emails or requests for certain topics and honestly I've gotten this request in some form or fashion a few times lately.   People have emailed or Facebook messaged me about positivity or how to stay happy during hard times etc.  To be honest I was a bit surprised that these asks kept coming.  I decided it was a sign that I actually needed to blog about it.   I think we've all heard the typical attitude is everything comments and most of the time they are in one ear and out the other.  Or we don't think they apply to us just everyone else.  However, I don't believe that.  I truly believe our attitude and thoughts shape our hours, days, years and ultimately our life experience.   I think this is a huge shift for most of us.  To take our thoughts from the place they have always been is super difficult.  When I got honest with myself I realized that a lot of times what I was think
