Instant Replay: November 2013

I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend! We barely left the house and it was absolutely perfect. Here are a few of my favorite snapshots from last month:

  • Layers of dainty jewels worn on Thanksgiving
  • Picked up a polka dot shirt and a necklace to match at the J.Crew Factory Store
  • Baked an apple pie
  • Donned mittens for the first time this season
  • Visited downtown Madison for afternoon drinks with Dave
  • Topped off a little white dress with a black bow belt
  • Decked the outdoor deck
  • Welcomed this DVF clutch to my collection for a song
  • Upgraded to the gold iPhone (and then immediately covered it up with this case)
  • Mixed costume jewelry with fine gems
  • Wore tartan flats a lot 
  • Enjoyed Japanese candy, a little surprise gift from our friend who lives in the country

Delving into my stocking is one of my favorite holiday traditions—the little trinkets are so darn cute! Here are some of my favorites this year for her, for him or just for yourself. (I’ve got dibs on the ski mug and I’m hoping Santa pulls through with some Milka Snow Bites.)

Perfect Presents: Delsey Paris Luggage

I had no intention of posting Black Friday sales today…and then I saw the incredible luggage sale at Delsey Paris. This particular suitcase is 23” and has plenty of room for a week-long jaunt. It’s the best bang for your buck and does come in black and grey for the less adventurous. After you’ve purchased your new luggage (and completed the rest of today’s deal hunting), enter their Pinterest contest. The winner will take home a piece of luggage and will receive a $350 travel credit. 

I’ll complete my entry after I finish scouring these sites:

Holiday Gift Guide: Men

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you’re celebrating the holiday with your nearest and dearest with Black Friday deals on the back burner. However, when the men slip into their post-football, post-turkey tryptophan haze, it’s the perfect time to check off your shopping list. I rounded up a few products that Dave endorses, but a bottle of bourbon is always appreciated if none of these strikes your man’s fancy. 

1. Z Gallerie, $20 each // 2. Kaufmann Mercantile, $219 // 3. Gant, $147 // 4. Nike, $70 // 5. Nike, $149 // 6. Kent Wang, $45 // 7. Kiehl’s, $42 // 8. Jack Spade, $10 // 9. Hook + Albert, $25 // 10. 3sixteen, $220 // 11. Smathers & Branson, $65 // 12. Daneson, $5 // 13. Crown & Buckle, $12 // 14. Makr, $11 // 15. Stanley, $75
