Happy Monday!

Good morning! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. We had sixteen people sleeping in our house and plenty of time for family dinners and movie marathons. The more, the merrier! What was the highlight of your holiday? Your favorite present?

Merry Christmas!

I'm just stopping in to wish you all a very merry holiday! I'm spending Christmas at home in Connecticut, opening presents with siblings and cousins before helping our parents prepare dinner with my grandfather's old recipes. I hope you each have a wonderful day and a special moment or two with your family and friends. I'll be back to regular posting on Monday with lots of fresh inspiration for ringing in the New Year!

Our Christmas Table

It's not your average Christmas spread but I'll take pink and shiny over red and green any day. The candles will be replaced before our guests arrive but I couldn't help but share a little sneak peek! What do you think? Have a wonderful weekend and a very merry Christmas!

Desk Du Jour

Are you as smitten with this stunning workspace as I am? Featured in the sophomore issue of Rue Magazine, the office combines ballet pink walls with hints of velvety yellow and soft turquoise. I love the gold art and the lucite tray while my other essentials — fresh flowers and a stack of magazines — have me wanting to move right in.

P.S. Did you hear that I'm the new editorial assistant for Rue?

P.P.S. Did you know there's still time to win a free sponsorship for the month of January?

Future Style Icon?

I love this picture of fashion darling Alexa Chung posing for photographers in her demure winter coat and fabulous cap-toe pumps. She is someone who may soon join the legions of ladies who have been featured as a Style Icon on my little blog. Who else deserves the title?

P.S. January sponsorship giveaway is still open!

The Maxi Skirt

It's official: the maxi skirt is the new it silhouette for spring. J.Crew's gorgeous wedding skirt has been out for a while but it was the sight of Kate Bosworth in a stunning mint green Jil Sander number that has pushed the maxi skirt into the spotlight. I can't wait to test out this fresh shape for spring and summer! What's your take on the trend?

P.S. Don't forget to enter the January sponsorship giveaway! The winner will be announced on Christmas Eve.
