Pops of Christmas at home!
The best bags for travel! I truly do not travel without this tote, whether I'm driving or flying. My husband and I both used these this past weekend, and they fit everything we needed! SYDNEY12 gives you 12% off!
Tuckernuck sent me a holiday gift, and it was wrapped so beautifully!
I think this is the busiest I've ever been with work! Phew!! It's fun, and I am sooooo beyond thankful for all of the wonderful opportunities, but come January, I'm going to need a long nap, ha!
This past weekend, we attended a funeral out of town, so we didn't really do much else and didn't have time for much else.
We have a jam-packed weekend. We have a concert and dinner, two projects that will require many hours and help from my husband and dad, and a baby shower. Next week, I have a lot on my schedule as well, so I'm going to have to be really good about organization and time management.
I cannot believe we are just two weeks out from Thanksgiving. Do you all have fun plans for the holiday? We always go to my parents' house, as they host Thanksgiving, and it's always delicious. I love that it's pretty laidback and casual! My sister and BIL come home next week—I'm so glad they are able to stay for a while this year!
I just started decorating for Christmas—much later than usual, but I ran into a snafu with our tree lights, so that delayed me a bit! It also finally started to become cold and more seasonally appropriate weather-wise, so I feel much more in the holiday mood! I will say I'm going to get a new tree next year, so if you have a good rec, let me know! I'm going to wait until after Christmas to snag one, hopefully on sale!
Wearing: In love with this new-to-me brand that makes washable cashmere but how gorgeous is this cardigan? It's oversized and so thick. The quality is impeccable and the colors in the yarn are so pretty! This is unique, and it is one of those sweaters you will get asked about any time you wear it. I reached out to the brand to try to get a code for us! Fingers crossed! I got the jeans last year and love them. They are pretty inexpensive. They don't have any stretch, so I recommend sizing up. I'm going to get another pair in a different wash when they launch their Cyber Week sale. The tee shirt is the best for under $15.
I wore these classic pajamas the other night. They're a great option if you are doing matching pajamas this holiday season. They are lightweight, and the quality is good. I've had mine for several years, and they have held up well!
Are you following me on the LikeToKnowIt app?! You can shop all of my outfits, favorite finds, and more in the app. I am constantly updating it with the latest! You can also access all of my posts, here, if you don't use LTK! You can also find me on ShopMy, another shopping platform!
Eating: We had a little date night at home. I was craving sushi, but we had plans to get a pizza, so I got Giant Eagle sushi as an appetizer, ha! My husband thinks grocery store sushi is not good. I don't like Whole Foods or Fresh Market's sushi but I actually think Giant Eagle's sushi is pretty decent. It doesn't hurt when you serve it on a crystal tray, ha!!
Drinking: This is an excellent deal for Caymus if you live in PA. It's a liter bottle (a bit larger than the typical wine bottle size but smaller than a magnum) and over $20 less than the state store charges for a regular-sized bottle!
Sale: Lots of Cyber Week sales have already begun! A few to note:
- Sarah Flint gave me an early access link to their sale, which you can
shop here. Use code EARLYBF30 and you'll get 30% off!
These heeled sandals are my top recommendation. I wear them to practically every wedding as they pair with anything and are so incredibly comfortable!
-
25% off Tuckernuck brand with code MEMBERSONLY. It's only valid on the 'Tuckernuck' label and you have to be logged into your account to use the code! Today is the last day!
- My
favorite walking sneakers are on sale. They are not the cutest, but the comfort far outweighs their lack of style. They have truly been a game changer for my long walks!
- 30% off activewear brand! I've been eyeing
this sweatshirt- so chic and cozy. This is the brand to gift the 20-something on your list!
-
Up to 50% off Dudley Stephens! If you are a DS newbie, I'd recommend
this. I'm currently writing this blog post in
this sherpa pullover, which is so warm and thicker than their traditional vello! Lastly, I'd highly recommend
this puffer vest. I collect puffer vests, so I've worn a lot in my life, and this is by far the nicest one I've ever had!
Watching: Have you all watched anything good lately? I haven't watched much TV, but after Thanksgiving, I will be ready and have time to watch something good!
Loving: These are the best phone cases I have used for years. I just got these two new ones- they must have just been released because I hadn't seen them before. There are SO many designs you could spend an hour just sifting through all of them. They would make a great gift if you know what type of phone the recipient has. You can now also personalize the phone's 'rubber' barrier part. It's hard to tell in the photo, but on the left, the edges are black, and on the right now, the edges are white, which is a new feature. I also love that you can add matching rings. It is so convenient to hold my phone with one finger hooked around the ring, and it acts as a kickstand. They do have sales so you could hold off and see if they do anything for Cyber Week. They just had a Halloween sale not too long ago.
Pittsburgh: I have shared this on Instagram stories before, but I don't think I've ever shared it here. If you have a GetGo nearby, you have to stop and use their free vacuums. I have a car wash subscription, so whenever I pass one, I get a car wash, and about once a week, I vacuum out my car. These vacuums work SO WELL—so much better than any vacuum I have at home. I keep car interior wipes in my car and wipe down the interior and vacuum it and it always feels so good! They have a trash can at every station, which makes it very convenient. I'd also recommend the car wash subscription. If you get your car washed twice a month, you make your money back.
Amazon Rec: I saw this Vera Bradley print and had to have it. They make many things in the print, but I actually needed a laptop sleeve, so that is what I went with! It makes my millennial heart happy!

Amazon favorites, here on my Amazon page where I am constantly updating it with all of my finds and top picks from home, beauty, fashion, and more!
comes in 6, 8.5, and 50 oz
Smelling: This candle is HUGE, and it smells incredible. It's possibly one of the best holiday candles I've ever smelled! The scent notes are Siberian pine, apple blossom (like a semi-dry cider), rosemary, jasmine, fir balsam, sandalwood, and cedarwood. It smells good on its own, but when you light it, it really comes alive!
Traveling: I planned a spontaneous trip to Nemacolin, and I'm looking forward to it. They filmed a season of The Bachelor there if you are unfamiliar with the resort! It's only about an hour and a half from Pittsburgh. I haven't been in many years and am excited to see all the renovations and work done. I have been going there since I was a small child.
