My Favorite Things | Wish List

November 30, 2016 by Courtney 4 Comments

Today I am honored to be joining a group of bloggers I adore. I’ve known these talented ladies through the blogging world for years now. Lisa from Shine Your Light, Jennifer from Dimples & Tangles, Kris from Driven by Decor, Pam from Simple Details invited me to play along with their “Five Favorites” series. Although this month’s theme is all about our wish list items so we are sharing more than five. I decided to roll with tried and true favorites. My sister and I love to gift each other with things we truly love (like Oprah!) so here we go! You get a wreath! You get a wreath! You get the idea.

FASHION FAVORITES

fashion-favorites

ONE |  SWEATER ROBE

This robe is beyond cozy. I am head over heels for it. It fits almost like a sweater (hence the name) in that it is tailored and not schlumpy like my other robes. Does that make sense? It’s one where you wouldn’t be embarrassed to answer the door in it (like I am with my other one).

TWO | BOMBER JACKET

I’ve been wearing my bomber jacket non-stop. I wear it over dresses and jeans.

THREE | RAYNE NECKLACE

I pretty much wear this 3-4 days a week. It’s a piece that elevates any outfit and it goes with everything. Highly recommend and it makes for a great gift.

FOUR | CLASSIC PLAID SCARF

This infinity scarf is a wardrobe staple for me. I wear it with t-shirts and shorts or with jeans and boots. It’s also really cute with dresses. Also a great gift idea.

FIVE | PLAID ZIPPERED TOTE

I must have a thing for plaid. My parents gave me a plaid purse when I was younger and this reminds me of it. Love the zippered tote. It’s monogrammed and has a ton of pockets on the inside. I always carry this or my striped tote to our kids’ games. It allows me to take water bottles, snacks, my wallet, keys and phone and everything can stay separated. Huge fan.

FAVORITES AT HOME

ONE | BOXWOOD WREATH

Classic. Looks great anywhere. Love this wreath. If you missed it, I just posted a video on how to tie a wreath to the staircase without it slipping.

TWO | FAUX FUR THROW

Cuddle up with this every night on the sofa. Especially this time of year. Just so soft and luxurious.

THREE | MONOGRAMMED COASTERS

These were a gift a few years back and we use them daily. I adore them and think they make for the best gift to send.

FOUR | AVOCADO SAVER

Yep. You read that right. An avocado saver. If you eat avocados like I do, this is a must have. After you eat the first half, the other half rests in this dish and it stays perfect! Genius.

FIVE | BLUE RUG

This was a recent purchase and we love it. In fact my husband even said maybe you should buy another one in case we spill on this one. Ummmm. I like the way he thinks. And at $65 it’s a great buy. Super soft underfoot. You can see more posts on our new home here. 

IN CASE SANTA IS READING

And just in case Santa is a blog reader, I thought I should toss these in for good measure!

ONE | MIXER

I’ve never had one of these fancy mixers. I do kno wthat my baking skills are suboptimal so maybe this might help, Santa!

TWO |  PEPPERMINT SNOW TUBE

Ummmmm!? So cute!!!! This would add to our winter fun this year!

THREE | MARBLE & WOOD SERVING BOARD

I love inersting cutting boards for entertaining and the marble is so pretty.

FOUR | PINK HUNTER BOOTS

Ok. I thought I was already in love with Hunter boots, but then they go and create this pale pink pair. So pretty!

FIVE | WATER BOTTLE

I am huge on drinking water throughout the day and this is so nice to be able to toss in a tote or the car. Pineapples just make me happy.

Now head over to check out the other girls’ favorites! So many fun things and you’ll love seeing their blogs!
