On the Right Foot: NYE Cocktails, Where to Travel in 2025, Silver Ballet Flats & More!

December 30, 2024 by jessica Leave a Comment

Above: A snapshot from our May 2024 trip to Barcelona. I promise that a travel guide is coming in the new year!

A few roundups for you to peruse: a list of my most recent notable purchases and my favorite products I bought in 2024.

The most beautiful places in France.

Out of the one billion packages that entered the U.S. in 2022, apparently one-third came from Shein and Temu. Let’s all resolve to spend our money more thoughtfully as we enter the new year.

18 New Year’s Eve cocktails that are worth staying awake for.

Silver ballet flats are very tempting now that they’re on sale.

How to make New Year’s resolutions that stick.

Where to travel in 2025.

I adore the idea of decorating a Christmas tree with only icicle ornaments. (This could never be my main Christmas tree — I love multi colored lights and ornaments too much — but would be lovely on a small tabletop tree.)

A couple of my favorite Christmas gifts: a beautiful leather work tote and gorgeous wine glasses.

Such a cheerful, colorful home!

Happy New Year!

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Snapshots from the past week: • Spent quality t Snapshots from the past week:

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
