Easy Canvas Prints

Before I launch into sharing holiday gift guides — and there will be plenty! — I thought I'd share a lovely gift I received recently. Thanks to the generous folks at Easy Canvas Prints, I converted one of my favorite family photographs into an 11" x 14" canvas! 

I was impressed at how quickly I received my order and the quality of the print itself. My canvas cost $46 and smaller options start at just $29 (well within the gifting range, wink wink!). For all of you looking to decorate your walls on a budget, this could be a great option! Definitely pop over to Easy Canvas Prints and let me know what you think. Do you ever give photographs as gifts?

P.S. The photo was taken by our talented family friend Carly Dudzik!

My New Favorite Toy

Thanks to all of you who shared your favorites on this post, I have found the curling iron of my dreams. Following your recommendations, I immediately ordered the Hot Tools curling iron (1 1/4" size) and subsequently fell in love.

It heats up almost immediately, works quickly, and costs a mere $34. Seriously?! The hair tool of my dreams cost just $34?! I wish someone had told me ages ago. Get yours here and watch this tutorial if you need a little help refining your technique.

And because you were all so helpful with my last beauty dilemma, here's another for you. Do any of you use Clarisonic to clean and exfoliate? I've heard rave reviews but the $119 price tag is a bit steep for my liking. If you've used it, I would love to hear your thoughts!

Currently Coveting {Tortoiseshell}

If there's one trend I can't get enough of this season, it's the resurgence of tortoiseshell accessories for your closet and your home. My friend Alex sent me a picture of gorgeous tortoiseshell bowls at C. Wonder (if you're in NYC and haven't been, you must!) and I'm thinking they'd be the perfect complement to a few of these...

{1} House of Harlow 1960 sunglasses, $125 (I love the gold border on these!)

{2} Bauble Bar necklace, $74 {3} Michael Kors ring, $85 {4} Bauble Bar cuff, $48 

{5} Michael Kors bracelet, $95 (This is my personal favorite!) 

{6} Elizabeth & James sunglasses, $185 {7} Lulu Frost for J.Crew bangle, $45

{8} Michael Kors watch, $195

Which piece is your favorite? Do you have any beloved tortoiseshell items?
