Hello Monday


 Jeans & Top: Gap. Blazer: Urban Outfitters. Scarf: Mod Cloth. Boots: Steve Madden.
Gloves: c/o Fine Finds. Purse: Ebay.




It's the most wonderfully stressful time of year isn't it? Christmas gifts to buy, parties to plan, decorations to put up and all while trying not to gain holiday weight. Am I the only one unable to resist Christmas baking? yumm.

I had hoped that Mike and I would decorate his tall Charlie Brown Christmas tree while listening to Christmas carols and drinking Christmas themed lattes.

Instead I decorated it (he helped by hanging up the purple bulbs) while we watched The Walking Dead. And a new Christmas tradition is born.



Tonight is my work Christmas party so this is a quickly hello and happy Monday before I go finish setting up the candy bar (see? treats every where)

  6. A ruffly snood that has texture and isn't flimsy? LOVE! What a perfect shade of pumpkin for the cooler months too! This is going straight onto my Christmas wishlist :D

    You look super pretty as usual Melissa!

    And I can't resist holiday baking (or any baking) either. Already planning a few extra treadmill runs during the next few weeks!

    Happy Monday!

  9. I really like those boots and the style of the scarf. I like your effortless looks. You really inspire me! p.s. you should do a tutorial on how to do your waves in your hair because I love that they aren't too wavy but they had volume and shape to your cut. Just a thought!! Happy holidays.
