Good morning. Whether you are at work today or home prepping for Thanksgiving, I hope you’re having a good start to the day. I’ve taken on a bit too much this week and am starting to wonder how it will all come together. Are you guilty of thinking you can do it all? I will say that beginning to decorate for Christmas has actually helped my stress level. With it only five weeks away, I want to fully enjoy Thanksgiving and Christmas. I walked into a local mall, South Coast Plaza, and was so excited to see all of the decorations. Seeing all of the twinkling lights and poinsettias definitely lifts my spirits this time of year.
I kicked off my gift guide series with ideas for the children and today I am sharing fun find for your girlfriends. I am so thankful for my dear friends and can’t wait to celebrate with them.

ONE FOR ME, ONE FOR YOU
My sister and I have a running joke. One for me, one for you. Of course we don’t always shop that way but no one will judge if you happen to buy something for yourself. Just sayin’!

These are all great gifts for your friends, teachers or sisters. Most of them are tried and true and something I would love to receive. The other one that would be a great gift is this book! I am hoping it’s under my tree this year.
Today I get to spend some time with my dear mom as well as a lifelong friend from up North. In between I’ll squeeze in all that I decided to take on this week. Enter the clinching teeth emoji!

Is there a code for the clutch?
Yes! Sorry. If you click on “Nine” it will take you there and it’s under bags. Sorry about confusion. xo
Thanks for the ideas. I’m trying to click on the clutch but it doesn’t direct me to the website to purchase.
