I have to say, this has been a lovely week (it has been nice that I've gotten the chance to enjoy those vacation days) and the week ahead promises to be just as fun. It has been great to reconnect with friends and family and remembering to embrace the season rather than watch it fly by.

Hope to post some Christmas decor shots, as I've enjoyed reading and seeing what fellow bloggers have shared (thanks Paige and Michele) and hope to give a little peek into our corner of the world.

Happy week, all!!!

Love all the vibrant colors you wear. Especially that purple sweater with the ruffles along the edges. I really like that ruffel and flowers made of material are really in right now. The blouse I did in my wiww write up has those flowers I'm talking about. Stay classy!!!

Love your Sweater from Anthropologie. I also like your last outfit so cute!

Michele said...

I saw that you got a shout-out on the blog Victory Road. Very cool! I left her a comment telling her you are one of my favorite WIWW to look at and you are also one of my favorite blog friends! I like all of your jeans. I don't remember seeing you in jeans as much and they look great. I look forward to seeing what you've been up to for the holidays. Do you ever enjoy the city this time of year? NYC always looks so magical at Christmastime.

Kathleen said...

Thanks again, everyone!

The past few years I did head into the city for Christmasy things, but this year was just too cold!

It is so pretty, lots of happy people walking around and lots to see.
