Splendid Littles x Target

I was so excited when I found this email in my inbox! Looks like I will be heading over to Target today to scope it out. I love the silky soft fabrics used on all Splendid products {I wonder if the Target collection will be the same?}.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

{this photo is from last year}

Enjoy this wonderful time of your with your loved ones. I will be spending much time with family & friends relaxing & eating. Merry Christmas.

Thank You {Rain Gods}

It's a very Merry Christmas around here today! I was awoken by a phone call from my boss telling me Merry Christmas the office is closed today due to flooding! {sad for the flood} But oh so HAPPY I can stay home. So here I am playing in the rain {on Sunday but it does not matter what day since we are going on our 6th day of non-stop rain} here in Southern California.

Dress: Anthro {it has been sitting in my closet for over a year with the tags on, I forgot I had it}

Shoes: Vintage Esprit

The rain keeps coming

I could use a pair of these. This non-stop rain for 5 days straight is too much for me! I do not know how people get any errands done in this weather? On the bright side the weather has really helped me to slow down & actually stay home & relax {I am a busy body & NEVER stop going all day every day} so I am grateful for this opportunity.

Rugby {Ralph Lauren}

Over the weekend I discovered the Rugby collection by Ralph Lauren. I like the classic look & heavy fabrics used through out the line. I picked up a thick flannel shirt {after finding a vintage ralph lauren flannel years ago at a thrift shop I have been on the hunt for another one} the quality of their pieces is what drew me in.  They get better {softer & softer over time}.  It looks like many items are on sale on their site right now!

Whenever I travel abroad I am always drawn to the unique handmade & hand beaded jewelry. So naturally I was drawn to these bright colors at the check out counter of forever 21.

Layering Sweaters {forever 21}

More often than not I find myself shopping {for work related purposes} which gives me the opportunity to stumble upon good deals. Today I spotted these layering sweaters at Forever 21 for a great price as part of their Yellow Tag Deals. They are super soft & perfect for the chilly weather!
