How are all my lovely readers today?!   I know everyone is starting to gear up for the holidays and I am too.  I am casually shopping around and thinking about what I am going to get for everyone on my list.   I cruised on over to anthropologie and found some great gift ideas!  I hope you enjoy.  xoxo 1.  iPhone Case I died when I saw these super cute iPhone cases!  I love them and they are unlike anything I have ever seen.  I do not have a new or even new version of the iPhone so I will not be purchasing for me but will absolutely be making this a purchase for Christmas.  What a great stocking stuffer!

I came home last night thankful, exhausted and content.  I realized there was no way I was go...
