Weekend Notes: 12.06.14

Desert Themed Decorating Ideas // Floating Glass Terrarium with Succulents

Happy weekend my loves!  Wedding planning is in full swing and the fiancé and I are back in Arizona this weekend to book a venue, take engagement photos and lock down a few other details in our 48 hour trip.  Eep!

Everyone has been asking me how the engaged life is and truthfully, I’m not sure that it’s sunken in yet.  Between work, the blog and now wedding planning, life is moving at lightning speed!  No time to breathe just yet … but when we book a venue and I find the perfect dress, I think I’ll finally get to soak it all in!

Until then, here’s what’s on my radar this week:

I published another video on my YouTube channel — this time, I styled three different outfits to wear to a holiday party.  Be sure to check it out and see my fiancé extraordinaire’s fab video work!

Earlier this week, I got a sneak peak of the cutest holiday pop-up shop you ever did see, hosted by one of my favorites, Roxy of Society Social, and a band of other talented #girlbosses.  Check out #73springshop, open every day through December 13th!

The holidays are almost here and if you haven’t finished your gift shopping, LOFT is having a 40% off sale this weekend (including new arrivals from Lou & Grey!).  I’m obsessing over this sherpa-lined moto jacket and this two-toned tunic if you’re in a gift-giving mood. 😉

Gap is also having a 40% off sale!  Tis the season after all!  I need to get my hands on some of their jackets — especially this quilted knit bomber, this fur trimmed anorak and this knit moto jacket.  So much outerwear … so little closet space.

Okay, one more 40% off sale over at Ann Taylor, just in case you’re not shopping.  They’ve been kind of killin’ it with their sweaters lately.  How cute is this open back sweater?  I’m also loving this modern twist on the fair isle print and you know I’m a always sucker for animal print.

What did you guys get over Black Friday and Cyber Monday last week?  I was so good until about 11:30 PM on Monday night.  I got a little trigger happy and scooped up two pairs of slip-on sneakers (one in black snakeskin and the other in grey wool).  They say when you know what you like, get it in every color, right?

Did you catch me on Aerie’s blog earlier this week?  I was rockin’ an oversized graphic sweater and the cutest little furry pom beanie.  I just scooped up two blanket scarves from them in a holiday red and a cream and green plaid.  Keepin’ it real cozy this winter.

Speaking of graphic sweaters, I’m kind of hooked and am craving another!  They’re such a fun way to add a little pep into your winter wear.  I’m loving this one, this one and this one.

Tracy’s postcards from Paris are making me so excited for our trip over Christmas!  It’ll be our first time in Europe (we’re also going to London and Munich), so your must sees, do’s and eats are needed!

  2. Get the museum pass – also gets your access to the Arc de triomphe which is great for shots during night. Of course, the Louvre and strolls through the different Jardins!
