Layers.

I know I have no room to complain about cold weather.  As far as weather and temperatures go Charleston is pretty mild!  This weekend however we had a cold snap and it's gonna last the whole week.  It was time to bust out some cold weather essentials and layer it up.




This scarf is the softest thing ever.  It keeps you so warm and lays perfectly.  It is the infinity style which I prefer because then I don't have to try and knot or tie it.  The plaid is neutral enough that it just goes with everything.
These sunglasses look just like the mirrored ray bans I love but are a fraction of the price.

and these shoes are pretty much amazing.  
They run true to size and are actually really comfortable.  I wore them all day while we got our Christmas tree and shopped around.  
Plus they are affordable less than $70!


Love the hat too.  It also comes in a pretty cream color but I tend to gravitate more to darker colors so I went with the charcoal. I actually have been wearing the gray one so much I am tempted to order the cream color as well.

Scenes From Our Weekend

I am starting to feel slightly stressed out that Christmas is right around the corner and I have yet to wrap one gift or finish my Christmas shopping.   I am kicking it into high gear this week.

We actually had a fairly busy weekend this weekend.

This year I have been trying to get more creative with Sparkles our Elf.  Now I am not nearly as creative as most people but I was proud of this scene I set up Friday night.  I found this adorable Melissa and Doug Nativity Set so after Sterling fell asleep I snuck in his room and set it up with Sparkles.  He woke and screamed Mommy The Elf brought me a baby Jesus set.  He was so excited and I thought it was a nice way to try and incorporate the real meaning of Christmas.  The nativity set is great because it is wooden, he and Frances played with it most of Saturday setting it up and rearranging the figures.


Saturday Matt worked most of the day so I decided to take the kids to see Santa at WonderWorks.  
This was the face Frances made when I told her were going to see Santa- not a fan.
and can we discuss her outfit- it is all Old Navy!  They have had the cutest stuff lately!
 I also snagged this poncho at Old Navy as well.  It is so stinking cute.

As I expected Frances did not like Santa and I don't blame her.  This Santa was kind of lame,  I really prefer the ones with the real beards.  Even Sterling kept asking him if he was the real Santa.  I do love a crying Santa picture though.

After our visit with Santa I got brave and took the kids to lunch solo.  We ate at LaTabella and it was delicious.  I shared the Bang Bang Shrimp with Sterling and had the chopped salad as well.


Then we hit up the park.

I came home to the loveliest package from L'Occitane.  I am obsessed with their hand and body creams.
This box would make such a beautiful gift for someone.  It is filled with all the best selling L'Occitane items and is currently on sale!  A great way to try out some of their items if you have not before.


Saturday night I helped host the Pink Chicken Store Opening and did not take one photo!  But you must check out the store its awesome!  Then we met some friends for drinks at Coast and headed to Caycee's 30th Birthday party.



We had such a fun night dancing at Trio.
I love Amy photo bombing our picture!



Sunday was a struggle not gonna lie.  This Momma can not hang like I used too.  Thank goodness for real coke, it always helps.


I finally got around to hanging my Michelle Armas from One Kings Lane.
 

Ended the weekend with some comfort food.  I made a homemade chicken pot pie and it was divine.  The recipe is under my recipes tab- this time I used pie crust instead of puff pastry.


Lastly one of my friends in Charlotte just published the cutest children's book.  If you live in Charlotte and have kids this book is a must!  Such a fun tour of the city.  Would be a great Christmas Gift.  You can order your copy HERE and use code CRICKETSHIPPING for free shipping!

Stocking Ideas For the Ladies All Under $50!

Today I thought I would pop in and share some fabulous stocking ideas for the ladies all for under $50!

My mom put this in our stockings last year and it was a huge hit.  The best smelling hand soap I promise you!  The Bmaboo scent is my favorite but you can't go wrong with any of them!

Since I have been obsessed with grapefruit lately I bought a few of these and they make eating grapefruit so much easier!



This is my favorite everyday lipstick.  I love BeautyCounter products so much because there are no chemicals or anything weird in them.  This is a great shade that would look good on anyone.  The other shades are pretty too- you can view all the different shades HERE

I also swear by this lotion I use it everyday.  A great stocking stuffer.  It is lightly scented but not overpowering at all- normally I don't like scents but this is a fresh scent.

I love these infuser in the bathroom.  They really make the whole place smell amazing.  This beach scent is so delicious and I like that it comes in a white vase instead of clear.

I still love Hanky Panky thongs.  Currently on sale so stock up!


This is hands down the best body scrub ever.  I am addicted to it.


I love this Kate Spade Planner- perfect for most moms or people who need to stay organized.

For all you wine loves, this thing is so cool.

I have this and love it.  I swear it makes finding my keys easier in my purse!

Love these classic coasters.  Great for any lady who entertains or has a messy husband:)

I got this in my stocking 3 years ago and I still read it everyday.  I love this devotional.

The best tights ever.


I just started using this stuff and love it!  I spray it on before I put my makeup on and I think it helps moisturize my skin and makes it look fresh.

I really want this for me!  Love the floral print.  There is always loose change in my purse so this would be great storage.
 
I swear by all Mason Pearson Products.


This is the perfect set of eyeshadow.  All the colors are great neutrals for everyday wear.

I own these in the clear color and wear them all the time.  They are on sale right now for only $28!
I also like the tortoise color a lot too!
