Lizzie Fortunato Clutches

I am so excited about the Lizzie Fortunato clutches. I love Claire Vivier too but I think the Lizzie Fortunato's are superior in make and quality. The detail is spot on and they are within a reasonable range.  These are some that I love.

Christmas in Paris

When I was a teenager we lived in Belgium (A 6 year family journey).  I was there only for high school and came back summers to work in college.  While living there we would go to Paris around Christmas time and stay here.  Living in L.A. is amazing and I would never take it for granted, however, when it is 60's and sunny it doesn't feel as festive. Once the kids are a bit older we are packing up and heading here!

I love these Christmas lights at the Louvre!


We will be eating lots of these...

Happy Christmas dreaming!!!

LOVE this dress by Reiss

I love the label Reiss. It is fashion forward and fits beautifully. It also looks a lot more expensive than it is. I love this dress and a few more Reiss show-stoppers below:

Christmas is coming!

We are in the process of decorating for Christmas. I have a lot of big ideas this year but probably very few will actually be executed due to the giant construction project going on right now (more on that later). Here are some of our Christmas decorations thus far and some inspiration below. Tree being selected this week. I am beading it out with the west elm felt garland in the winter white and doing a more arts and crafts theme--we are forgoing an enormous tree this year because we have no storage at the moment for the furniture that needs to be moved to put a mammoth tree in place--next year! xo

LOVE all of this!(all via Pinterest)
I want my house to look just like this for Christmas.  Wreaths in windows and garland around door.
