Obsessions

I am obsessed with the colors of this blouse.   And JCrew is having an extra 25% off right now, like I need a reason to shop there.  If I don't buy this before it is definitely going on my Christmas Wish List.

Two of the best new cookbooks just arrived at my house last week and I am obsessed with both of them.  I have devoured them front to back ear marking all the recipes I cant wait to try.  I highly recommend both!


I first spied these napkins in my most recent issue of House Beautiful and could not stop thinking about them.  I love the geometric patterns and bright blue colors.  When entertaining I always like to mix and match napkins, makes it more fun.   I can't decide if I love the cocktail napkins or regular napkins more.  These would make a great hostess gift:)


I love love love this dress.  The colors are just gorgeous. 


{Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey}
Let me start by saying I am so not a whiskey drinker.  I prefer clear liquor, but this stuff is so tasty.   Matt and I had a little taste of it last weekend and I forgot how darn good it was. The perfect cold weather sipping liquor.
How adorable are these Hedgehog measuring cups?  I want them for my kitchen.  They would be the cutest Holiday gift too!

I would LOVE for you to do a Christmas wish list! My family is already asking for one and I am clueless! You always have such a good sense of style... I'd love to see what you're asking for! Any chance I can convince you to do one before thanksgiving?!

You always have the best cookbooks. I swear. Love that J. Crew blouse as well. I actually get pissed when they offer a % off. Makes me feel guilty for not buying. Sick I know. Beautiful napkins!

Hehehe...seriously hedgehogs are just about the most adorable animals on the planet, so *clearly* these catch my fancy (c: And J crew has been taunting me all week with their 25% off emails! DANG THEM and their fabulous clothes/shoes/accessories!!!

Kelly @ turned UP to ELEVEN! said...

Thank you for the cookbook suggestions - I was trying to make a Christmas wish list for my hubby and these will be at the top for sure!

Fireball is amazing! The first time I had it I was transported back to elementary school, it tastes so much like fireballs candy. It was so smooth it worried me a little bit. Our friends own a bar and the bartender was more than happy to keep giving me free samples. It's delicious for sure.
