    Varley Zip-Ups

    I’m not sure what brand of end-of-year burnout I have, but lately all of my pullovers have seemed too daunting a task to put on. Pull something over my head you ask? That’s simply too much for a mother of two toddlers during Q4. All I want are cozy, zip-front options that won’t cause me to dislocate a shoulder. Thankfully, these favorites from Varley fit the bill: this super-flattering longline hoodie (I love the side slits) and this metallic-knit bubblegum beauty.

    Lenox Ornaments

    Consider this a friendly reminder: tiny people are obsessed with tiny things. I got this Nutcracker ornament set for Coco last year before taking her to her first Nutcracker Ballet. My intention was to incorporate a few Nutcracker-themed items into her everyday so that she became familiar with the characters and themes before seeing the show. It totally worked because when it came time to watch the ballet, she knew what was going on and really enjoyed the experience. Fast forward to this year, both girls just want to sit and play with these tiny nutcracker ornaments at the bottom…

    Ronny Kobo Cardigan

    When I posted this two-toned cardigan from Ronny Kobo two years ago, it sold out in minutes. Miraculously, it is now appearing in stock in both cream and emerald colors, in ALL sizes at The Outnet AND it’s 45% off. I mean it when I say: “Run, don’t walk.” This is one of my all-time favorites and still looks good as new after countless wears.

  • Flared Raincoat

    Flared Raincoat

    A flyaway umbrella, wet hair, rain boots… It’s not easy to maintain a polished look when the weather gets nasty. That’s why I was thrilled to find this fit-and-flare waterproof coat from Wolf and Badger. It’s like a chic waterproof dress with a hood—the most feminine way to get caught in inclement weather. For some reason, the brand doesn’t have colorways consolidated on one product page so scroll through this page to see all the amazing prints and colors they offer.

    Nail Shape Infographic

    If you’ve gotten a manicure recently, you know that there are almost as many nail shapes as there are nail polish colors. I came across this Glamour Magazine article that has a super handy infographic of virtually every nail shape. Since our move from NYC, I’m still testing out local nail salons and trying to find “my person” but have been frustrated that the terminology I use with one artist is interpreted differently by another. So, I have saved this image from the article and keep it saved on my phone. If you’re stumped by the differences between square, round…

    Handheld Vaporizer

    Tis the season… cold and flu season. I’ve been plagued with a terrible cold over the past several days and the only thing keeping my throat and lungs alive is this personal steam inhaler from Vicks. It targets a blast of warm steam to alleviate cough and congestion and the personal, portable design means that with a throw blanket and access to Netflix, I can get relief in any cozy corner of the house.

    Gap Denim Sherpa Jackets

    I bought these adorable Gap sherpa-lined jackets for the girls a couple months ago and the more they wore them, the more I found myself asking, “Do they make that in my size?” As luck would have it, they do! Gap’s denim sherpa jacket for adults is the same cozy, oversized layer as the ones my girls love. It goes with almost everything and surely means we’re overdue for another #MatchingMoment.

    French Onion Mashed Potato Recipe

    Of all the recipes I’m going to tackle over the next month, I think I’m most excited for these French onion mashed potatoes from How Sweet Eats. Thanks to the caramelized onions and melty gruyere cheese, these mashed potatoes promise to be a standout on my Thanksgiving table. My only problem will be sharing. I may end up parking them next to my plate and conveniently “forgetting” to pass the dish. Oh, silly me!
