GIFT GUIDE

While we all know the perfect gift isn’t wrapped under the tree, but the people who sit across from us at the dinner table and love us despite all. It is however, a kind gesture to find that little special gift to say, “I love and appreciate you!’ I asked each of our four children (and hubby), what little things they would like to see under the tree, with some help from Moi. Note, a lot of the items are on sale now. What are your favorites?

WOMEN :: iPOD:: velvet blazer (I got a sz 6 US)::  tassel charger :: velvet heel :: Skintint :: also LOVE this (size down, I got a 00)

MEN henley :: Nikes :: 3D Doodler  :: navy tee :: DSLR backpack 

GIRLS sweatpants :: necklace :: star sweatshirt (so soft!):: monster purse :: bracelet (40% off with code HOLIDAY)

BOYS NATIVE :: Little Patient :: wood guitar :: sweater ::  BATMAN PJ’s

Cozy has new meaning when you’re a mom, here are some soft favorites that are on my Christmas list. What are yours?

Isn’t it crazy how ideas for your special guy are plentiful and awesome all year and then June hits and they disappear?  So, this list is for you. If you want to go beyond the weed-wacker and grill, give him something for his closet. I like to think of it as a wardrobe face lift. And I secretly want that Darth Vadar alarm clock too. Win -win.

IT Bags

I’ve been thinking lately about how less is more and how that translates in fashion … basically, there should be less junk and MORE quality pieces. Amen? After all, there’s no shame in ringing in summer with a worthy splurge. Especially if it is one that you will wear over and over and over again. See 5 of my favorite “investment buys” below.

1. Pierre Hardy (contrast details on point!)  

2. Stella star bag (so adorable)

3. Chloé elsie (love this pop of color)

4. Stella denim crossbody (a classic that doesn’t take itself too seriously)

5. Ferragamo marisol (I like it with cutoffs and a flowy top)
