The most incredible tragedy has happened and I cannot write or give away anything today. Today we mourn, we pray, and we cry in devastation for the families of these beloved lost.

Tell your loved ones you love them.

Gift Guide: Pretty Accessories

1. Grand Stone Bracelet. || 2. Tassel Pendant. || 3. Skinny Patent Belt. || 

4. Surrender Pump. || 5. Coin Purse.

It's Friday, YAY!! Anyone have fancy corporate parties to attend this weekend? I love it when I get to get extra dressy for a Christmas party (Brian's, not mine... though the girls do love to get fancy too). The color of 2013 is emerald, so I'd love to get a head start and accessorize accordingly. 

Love,

Kate

A Touch of Bright & Sparkly

When we come across things we just LOVE, we definitely want to share. I recently found this amazing Etsy shop- Everlylane- with my absolute favorite party or kid's room decor. The color options are perfection. Emma has one hanging over her little bed and it adds just the right touch of whimsey and girly to her side of the room.

They're also perfect for New Year's parties! Add a little extra sparkle to your holiday decorating!

Gift Guide: Under $25

1. Black & White Scarf. || 2. Measuring Cups. || 3. Gingham Highball. ||

 4. Yellow Box. || 5. Chaia Moccasin Slippers. || 6. Throw Pillow.

Everything on today's guide is from Target. Everything is $25 and under. You guys, I'm like a Target superfan. I go in to buy a little toothpaste and come out two hours later with a cart full of goodness. They have so many things I really really "need." I know some of you are the same...

When it comes to gifting, Target is- in my humble opinion- a one stop shop. I mean, you'll probably want to refrain from going on any weekend day in December, but if you can outsmart the crowds, it's really one of those places that you can find anything for any age. ALSO, it's the perfect place for finding gifts on a budget... which obviously is crucial.

Target has two GREAT programs running right now for kids (you know we love kids here!) that you'll want to take advantage of:

• Your kids can make their own digital wish lists for Christmas gifts, then email them right over to your family & friends to make things simple!
• Avoid those crowds and get free shipping on any of the Top 20 Toys at Target.

Shop away!

Small Style: Stripey Neutral

Stripes are the best. Polka dots give stripes a run for their money sometimes, but when all is said and done, stripes win. It's the classic look, worn by all. I think sometimes it like any pattern on a jacket isn't going to be versatile enough, but in reality, a striped jacket is one of those fantastically better neutrals.
















































Stripes are good. And so is the fact that it was supposed to rain today, and instead we just see blue skies. Time to get out and enjoy!

Gift Guide: Staying Cozy

1. Soft Slippers. || 2. Small Throw Rug. || 3. Hand Warmers. || 4. Throw Blanket. || 5. Candlestick.

Being cozy is my favorite thing. I love having a fire in the fireplace, sitting down on a soft rug, wrapped in a blanket and watching a chick flick as rain falls outside. These are my favorite gifts for staying warm and happy on those chilly days and nights.
