December 5, 2018

Holiday parties are in full swing! From work, to friends, to family, you’re likely attending some holiday event this season. Today, I’m sharing a super easy and affordable holiday look. This red cable knit sweater is currently down to $27 and is the perfect color for the holidays! Paired with black pants and boots, it is a quick & chic outfit for any holiday event! It would also look super cute with white denim and the same over the knee boots! To dress it up, you can wear it with a statement earrings like this pair. These earrings would also make a great gift for a girlfriend, mom, daughter or sister! They’re great quality and so gorgeous.

Now, if you’ve been following my blog for any amount of time, you know comfy-chic is kinda my life motto 😉. But, I know there are those of us who have events this time of year that require a bit more dressing up! So, I’ve gathered a few of my favorite pieces to create the perfect holiday look – casual or dressy – below. And, as always, all are at affordable prices! Stay tuned next week for a roundup of New Year’s Eve outfit ideas! 🍾

Gift Guide: 15+ Gifts for Him Under $50

November 20, 2018

Happy Tuesday everyone! As promised, LOTS of holiday content this week. Starting with my round up of gifts for him under $50 today!

I think we can all agree that men are the hardest to shop for, right?! If they want something, they just buy it. And, even if you manage to get them something they don’t have, it takes a bit of creativity to make it special (a pair of socks just isn’t that exciting, sorry!). Today, I’m sharing over 15 gifts for him that won’t break the bank and are sure to be a hit!

I’ve compiled them all in the collage below and detailed my top 3 picks!

Before we begin, however, have you seen all the good sales already happening? It’s like Black Friday’s on steroids this year! LOFT is 40% off your purchase with code “BESTWEEK” (see my top picks here), American Eagle is 40% off + Free Ship & Express is 50% off + Free Ship to name a few! Don’t hesitate to shop the sales now, it’ll save you time and stress later in the week when everyone’s shopping and sizes are going quickly!

Remember that I’ll be sharing more gift guides, Thanksgiving/Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales guides, holiday party attire, makeup looks in the coming weeks! You can find it all under the “holiday” tab in the upper right hand corner of your page. Be sure to subscribe to my blog to stay updated on new post notifications. And bookmark my holiday tab so you have easy access once the sales start on Turkey Day! You can expect a sales roundup post from me that morning so you can shop the posts while recovering from your Turkey Coma 😋.

Gifts for Him Under $50

Beer Lover’s Set: Any combo of this Beer Map, Pint Set, Flask and Growler would be great for your favorite Beer or Spirit lover! We gave a similar Beer Map to my dad a few years back, and he loved it! This Etsy shop has most every state and country! Such a fun and personalized gift.

Cozy Gift: This cozy pullover (on sale for $45) + pair of slippers would make the perfect gift for your favorite homebody! Totaling under $90 together, this could easily knock out one whole person on your list!

Echo Dot: The gift that’s good for any guy of any age! From playing music to checking weather, the Echo Dot with Alexa does it all and for only $40! It’s really a no brainer! We got an Echo for Christmas a few years back and use it almost every day. We also got our nephews Echo Dots for Christmas last year, and they use theirs all the time. It’s a fool-proof gift!

For more gifts for him & for every other person on your list, you can find the rest of my gift guides here! These will be updated throughout the coming weeks! And, my gift guide for the outdoorsmen from last year is here.

The Cozy Gift Guide

November 15, 2018

Happy Thursday everyone!

Today, we are starting our Gift Guide series! That’s right, more holiday content coming your way. About two weeks ago, I asked for your help in determining what gift guides you all would like to see. I got a lot of requests for general gifts for your friends, family (siblings, in-laws, parents etc), significant others as well as office gift exchanges. So, every week leading up to the big day, I will be releasing a new themed gift guide. In addition, you can find general gifts for “him, her, in-laws, decor, beauty” etc listed under the Holiday tab. I will have specific gift guides for some of these categories, but in case you wanna get a jump start on your shopping or want more ideas, you can head here (FYI these will be updated tonight, and I’ll add to them throughout the season!).

For this post, I’ve rounded up the perfect items to give to your favorite homebody in my cozy gift guide! These gifts would be perfect for a girlfriend, sister, mom/MIL or friend! I’ve gathered up some top picks in the collage below as well as more items under that. I’m detailing my favorites under the collage in case you need help deciding!

And, as a reminder, Thanksgiving is ONE week from today (what?!?!). In case you missed it, you can find 10+ outfits that are perfect for Turkey Day here. Many are eligible to order online for in store pick up so you can get them before the holiday!

**click on the image below to shop the product from the retailer’s page**

Nespresso with Aeroccino: Hands down, the best Christmas gift I ever got was my Nespresso! I got it last year from my parents and use it everyday. It’s definitely a bit pricier, so this would make the perfect group gift or splurge for yourself. But, it will pay for itself! I only get coffee out a few times a month now, and I look forward to using it every morning. It literally brightens my day! And, it ships Prime 😏. I found these super cute mugs to go with it, but if you follow me on the gram, you also know I LOVE these mugs. You can get 15% off the ones from Etsy with code INSTA15.
Faux Fur Blanket: Cozy and oh so chic, this blanket travels with me from room to room! It’s under $30 + Prime ship so makes for the perfect, affordable gift. It’s very luxe and feels much pricier than it is! Plus, if you live in the North, you can never really have too many blankets, am I right?!
Face Masks: No self-care night is complete without a face mask! These would be perfect to give as a gift to your best girl or girlfriend. They also would be great to divide up among friends and give as separate gifts. Sephora has a ton of great beauty gift sets that would be great to divide up this way to get the most bang for your buck!

What’s on your wishlist this holiday season? I’m eyeing up this cozy cardigan – I heard it’s like wearing a cloud. Sign me up!

And, because we are nearing the biggest shopping week(s) of the year, a reminder that you’ll be able to find Black Friday + Cyber Monday sales guides under the “Holiday” tab on my blog. These days can be very overwhelming, so let me be your guide! I’ll have a roundup of sale picks from our favorite retailers as well as a list of the sales happening at most major stores! Thank you all for shopping through my links this holiday season! The small commission I make from your purchases helps to keep this blog going, and I appreciate it more than you know!

The Best Women’s Winter Coats & Accessories for 2018

November 14, 2018

Hello Friends!

Today I’m sharing a much requested roundup of women’s winter coats & accessories! Similarly to my Nordstrom post from last week, I’ve paired this with an Instagram try-on session where I’ve tried on and reviewed each piece. I find it’s especially helpful to see coats on someone prior to purchasing, so I hope you find this helpful! This try-on is saved to my profile highlights under “Winter Gear,” and I’ve included photos of each item below. At the very bottom, you’ll also find a roundup of other similar items!

In terms of retailers, I often head to Colombia or North Face when I’m looking for a great quality down jacket. Otherwise, Loft, Old Navy, and Nordstrom have great dressy options! I do tend to size up one (to S) in most jackets to layer over sweaters and have included sizing details below each image. You can find the details for the outfit I’m wearing here.

I’ve sorted the items into down jackets, dress coats and accessories. I am waiting on two more down jackets so check back in a few days and those will be added! Most coats are under $150 too!

DOWN JACKETS

Mid-Length Down Jacket – Mine is 5 years old, this one and this one are the same brand & similar

I size up one in this brand to wear over sweaters! Wearing S here!

Full Length Down Coat – Mine is 9 years old! Perfect for students or those in the far North! This one is very similar and under $150!

DRESS COATS

Peacoat – XS (TTS) – only $39 and featured in this post

Red Coat – XS (too tight for sweaters, size up one!) – under $65

Fur Lined Utility Coat – SP (oversized, size down unless you plan to wear chunky sweaters!) – on sale for $72!

Coat – SP (TTS) – 40% off with code STYLE (pictured above)

Coat // Petite Version – XSP (size down one, runs large!) – 40% off with code STYLE (seen in this post)

ACCESSORIES

Grey & Black Color Block Scarf | Blush & White Color Block Scarf | White Scarf (old – similar, similar) | Black Beanie (same one as the grey in all the photos) | Fleece Lined – Grey Beanie with Gold Pom

More Coats & Accessories:

Holiday gift guides go live tomorrow AND we are about a week out from Turkey Day! If you need outfit inspo, I did a round up last week you can find here!
