Weekend Reading 12.30.16

TRIP PLANNING: We’re busy making our travel plans for 2017 and this post is the ultimate escape eye candy. So far, we’re considering Arizona in March (I’ve never been to the Grand Canyon), a long, lazy weekend beachside, and a summer trip to Europe (possibly London).

SHOP: The post-holiday sale at Gorjana continues to be the most tempting thing ever with deeply discounted baubles. They’re perfect for layering together or with your statement-making pieces. I ordered this and I’m tempted to add this to my collection, too.

OOPS: Take a trip down memory lane with 2016’s most awkward fashion moments.

SHOPPING MISTAKES: Personal shoppers weigh in on the 30 shopping mistakes we all make — and how to avoid them.

PARTY PERFECT: Can these flats be any more perfect? I’m thisclose to buy them, but I can’t decide between yellow or pink. I’m leaning toward yellow because it’s more unexpected.

FITNESS TIPS: Easy ways to stay healthy on your next adventure.

HEALTHY EATING: Now that the holiday cookies are finished, it’s time to start eating healthy again. Liz shared 10 healthy recipes to try in the new year.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:

  • My final budget update of the year.
  • Favorite outfit posts from 2016.

‘ROUND THE BLOGS: I’m thinking of adding a link-up to the “Weekend Reading” posts for you to share your favorite blog posts from the past week. Yay? Nay? Thoughts?

Buying tickets to the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit l Buying tickets to the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit last November seemed both reckless and naively hopeful. I’m so glad I went for it though, as our first fully vaccinated adventure has been the breath of fresh air we needed. (I’m also happy to report that most people are masked up walking outside, and there are plenty of social-distanced dining options in Chicago.)
Now that we’re fully vaccinated, I'm sure Dave i Now that we’re fully vaccinated, I'm sure Dave is thrilled to be an Instagram Boyfriend again when we're out for our coffee runs. ☕️ 😉 (Don’t worry, we haven’t stopped wearing our masks yet!)

I’d also like to point out that I’m embracing the middle part as not to let my Millennial show. 😉

I'm so excited for longer days and warm evenings o I'm so excited for longer days and warm evenings on the patio -- and this subscription to @winc couldn't haven't come at a better time to usher in the new season with wine in hand! 

If you're unfamiliar with Winc, the California-based winery was founded in 2012 with the belief that wine should be more accessible. So, they've introduced an online membership experience that suggests wines based on your taste preferences making it a really fun way to try wine if you’re at all intimidated by an expansive wine aisle!

Interested in trying it yourself? Use my link to get 40% off your first order and free shipping! That’s 4 bottles of wine for just $39! Learn more at winc.mivh.net/Ryyn3v

I know everyone loves wick trimmers for their cand I know everyone loves wick trimmers for their candles, but you're missing out if you don't have a taper shaver, too! It's an inexpensive gadget that can save you from forcing a candle into a holder and risking breakage — of either the holder or the candle itself. I linked to some options in today's blog post! (URL in bio.)
When we moved into our home three-and-a-half years When we moved into our home three-and-a-half years ago, Dave added an indoor security camera to our living room. I’ll be the first to admit that the option for 24/7 surveillance (which can, thankfully, be shut off automatically when you arrive home) was a little strange, but it’s absolutely worth the peace of mind that comes with a smart camera. When we’ve been away, we’ve checked in on the cat to see what he’s been up to and we’ve been able to verify that the person detected in our house was someone we lent a key to! We’ve since decided to relocate that one outdoors and were delighted to have the opportunity to partner with @ecobeehome to try out their SmartCamera as an indoor replacement. It was a natural fit as we already have – and love – an ecobee thermostat and this camera integrates seamlessly into the brand’s app. The camera has a 180-degree field of view that lets you track activity in your home, giving us a much wider view of the main floor than the other camera allowed. Privacy is still paramount as the camera uses WiFi and GPS to detect when family members are home, which shuts off the recording option. It’s also equipped with voice controls and Alexa, allowing you to connect with the technology you need for your household. And, while it’s not the most important aspect of a smart camera, the design of this one is *really* good.
