Happy Monday babes! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I think I am still in denial that Christmas is only 4 days away! I am so excited to celebrate but also get so sad that the holiday season is almost over! Although I am excited for a new year and pray 2021 will be a better year and we can end this horrible pandemic for good! I swear I will never take normal things like going to a store without a mask on for granted again haha! SO ready for things to go back to normal! Anyways, I decided to start the week off on a festive note in this adorable off the shoulder sweater. I scored it off Amazon and I love the cute holiday pattern! I went for a polished casual look so I paired the sweater with a pair of dark jeans and slouchy boots. I hope you all have a wonderful start to your week! <3
Family Photos 2020
Happy Thursday ya’ll! I CANNOT believe Christmas is next week!! I started to decorate for Christmas and doing all the Christmas things super early but after Thanksgiving I was SO busy with photography clients I feel like December flew by! We are jamming in some Christmas festivities this weekend which I am really excited about since I feel like we have been so busy the past few weeks! We took our family pictures in November and I am OBSESSED with how they turned out! My friend that used to do photography and I exchange doing pictures for each other each year and then edit our own and it works out so well! Sorry for the major picture overload but I couldn’t narrow them down because I mean Sawyer’s cute face haha! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and finish all your last minute shopping! <3
Holiday Gift Guide for Him

Happy Monday babes! I hope you all had a great weekend! We had so much fun down in Miami celebrating Griffin’s brother getting married! It’s always a good time getting together with family! Sorry I have been slacking with my normal outfit posts! This month has been so insanely busy and Griffin has been insanely busy with his job right now we haven’t had a chance to take outfit photos! I’m hoping to be back up to normal next week! Are you all done with holiday shopping yet?! I am about half way done (which is stressing me out because I am usually always on top of holiday shopping!) The men are always my last to shop for because they are SO difficult! I thought I would put a gift guide together to help if you struggle with the men on your list too! One thing that is always a safe bet is tools! One thing my dad asked for this year was a circular saw! I always think leather too! Leather bag, wallet, shoes! Electronics is always a good idea too! This portable speaker has amazing reviews and is under $30! I hope you all have an amazing start to your week! <3
DIY Holiday Gift Basket
Happy Thursday loves! Can you believe that Christmas is almost here!? When thinking of gift ideas for loved ones during the holiday season one thing I always turn to is a cute gift basket! Today I am putting together a gift basket for my best friend, but this would be great for a sister or even your mom too! Seriously this is such a fun and easy idea! It also adds a personal touch. I love scanning through the store for fun things to throw in the basket! What I usually do to make shopping a little bit easier is start with a theme. With 2020 being a tough year for most I wanted to make the theme a self-care gift basket. I picked up some fuzzy socks, bath bomb, jade roller, scrunchies, face masks, adorable mug, and lastly some great skincare items from Neutrogena at Walmart!
I’ve heard nothing but great things from their Bright Boost line so I grabbed the Bright Boost Gel Cream and Bright Boost Illumination Serum. The Gel Gream has Neoglucosamine in it which helps visibly reduces dullness and dark spots for smooth skin. It also improves look of tone, texture, and fine lines. The Illumination Serum has turmeric extract in it so it helps with dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Plus it is dermatologist-tested and clinically proven to hydrate and nourish your skin!
Mustard & Flares
Happy Monday loves! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and long weekend! I also hope you scored some awesome deals with all the crazy sales going on! A lot of them are still going on for cyber Monday today so be sure to check out my sales post! If you’ve been around awhile you know my love for mustard, especially during the cooler months, so when I saw this adorable off the shoulder mustard sweater I knew I had to have it! I love that the shoulders are mesh so it looks off the shoulder but has to comfort of a normal top! Seriously genius since I swear I am always getting annoyed with off the shoulder tops either popping back up or falling too low. I paired it with some highwaisted denim flares and threw on a brown hat to give this look a boho feel. I hope you all have a wonderful start to you week! <3

Moody Florals
Happy Monday loves! Was it me or did this weekend go by WAY too fast!? Thank goodness we have a quick week! I cannot believe Thanksgiving is in a few days! This year is just going by way too quick! Although I am ready for some yummy food and family festivities! Speaking of Thanksgiving, this dark floral maxi dress would be perfect! I love the orange florals and it has plenty of room for a stomach full of stuffing! I wanted to make this look nice and casual so I paired it with some suede booties and wool hat. I hope you all have a great start to your week! <3

Happy Hump Day babes! Any one else starting holiday shopping super early this year? I have already ordered Sawyer’s big gift this year and already have a list of other things I am eyeing! Shopping for kids I think is the most fun! Although toddlers can be tricky since they can’t actually tell you want the want! Sawyer is a big fan of playing with play food at my parent’s house so I went back and forth on getting him a kitchen or the grocery stand. I decided on the grocery stand since there are a little more features with the cash register and I think he will love it! Also he pretty much needs that adorable grocery cart to go with it! For a smaller gift these letter and number puzzles are great! Sawyer is obsessed with his letter puzzle and can identify almost the whole alphabet now! I need to get a number puzzle next! Sawyer is so into climbing I think he would love this soft climbing shapes set! I hope you have a great Wednesday! <3
Christmas at Gaylord Palms
Happy Monday ya’ll! I hope you had a fabulous weekend! We spent the end of last week at Gaylord Palms and attended their Christmas event that just opened. If you followed my Instagram Stories you know we had SOOO much fun! It was the perfect way to kick off the holiday season! First off the resort is decorated so beautifully! If you have never been in a Gaylord resort you need to go! They are large atriums that are almost like a small town that make you feel like you are outside but not. There are also tons of restaurants, shops, bars, you name it! Gaylord goes all out for Christmas so it is beautiful to walk around the resort even if you are not attending the event. Although the Christmas event is basically pure Holiday magic!
This year there is a Snow Factory where you can enjoy the Snowball Build and Blast which you can build your own snowballs and throw them for points. This was Sawyer’s activity! He LOVED throwing the snowballs! They also have Snow Flow Mountain where you can go ice tubing! So cool! Other activities include gingerbread decorating (along with Characters! Nutmeg was Sawyer’s favorite!), Elf Training Academy, where you can paint your own ornament, and of course a meet and greet with Santa and Mrs Claus! You can also go on the Grinch’s Wonderful Awful Idea Scavenger Hunt or attend the Grinch Character Breakfast. Back in the St Augustine Atrium you can enjoy the #LIT light show, Cirque Dreams Unwrapped live performance, and The Greatest Story, which is a multicultural musical celebrating the story of Christ. But that’s not all! Debuting this year is their new I Love Christmas Movies! This is an interactive, multi sensory experience where guests can walk right on to live sets of their favorite Christmas Movies! Movies include POLAR EXPRESS™, A CHRISTMAS STORY™, ELF™, NATIONAL LAMPOONS CHRISTMAS VACATION™, and THE YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS™. Our favorite was of course Christmas Vacation! They even had the dried out turkey! Haha! All in all we had the best time and would highly recommend the event if you are going to be in Orlando this holiday season! We already can’t wait to go back next year! <3
