Got dressed up for what feels like the first time

Got dressed up for what feels like the first time in forever and had to document it. I’ve been very much in my own feelings the past couple of weeks. It’s not bad, just a lot of processing of everything going on politically, everything that has come from being 10 months into this pandemic, and the new year pressure to set goals or intentions - it’s hard to think about the future when everything feels so uncertain! But, I know that I’m not the only one who is feeling this weight. If you’re feeling it too, know that you’re not alone! These are strange times, and I hope that we start to normalize talking about difficult things. 💜

In an attempt to boost my mood, I realized it’d been a long time since I dressed up in a fun and colorful print. I know I advocate for getting dressed every day, but lately I’ve been wearing the same solid comfy basics. So, a wild animal print dress on a Friday was a nice little change. It’s really stretchy and comfortable, and now on clearance at @eloquii. I’ll put the link in my bio, and you can also find it on my @liketoknow.it. I hope you have a great rest of your weekend!

Yesterday’s victories were getting dressed and n

Yesterday’s victories were getting dressed and not spilling anything on my cream sweater. Today, I’m in loungewear but I am wearing a bra! And earrings! I’m celebrating that, as silly as it sounds.

If you don’t find the new year to be magical, don’t care for a word of the year, and still don’t know what you want to do or accomplish - it’s OK! 2021 looks very hazy in my mind - not quite sure which direction I want to go. When this happened in the past, I would get very frustrated with myself. “You’re a goal-oriented person! How do you not know what you want?!” It spiraled into more negative self-talk.

Right now, I’m working to be conscious about letting that pressure go. It’s OK to give yourself space and time until the haze clears. Anyone else working on giving themselves some more grace right now?

Instead of my favorite sequins or lace as in New Y

Instead of my favorite sequins or lace as in New Years Eve pasts, I’m covered in flocking and glitter from taking down Christmas decorations. (Swipe for some previous NYE outfits… maybe again in 2021!) I know it’s easy for many of us to curse 2020 and focus on all the bad that it brought, but I’m trying to take some positive energy into the new year by being thankful that we made it to another day. 🍾
Tell me: This year are you Team Midnight Countdown or Team In Bed Before Midnight?
📺 Also random, but should I watch Bridgerton? I can’t decide…
Cheers, my friends. 🥂

Hoping that you had a happy and healthy holiday. W

Hoping that you had a happy and healthy holiday. We tried to do a family photo with Ruby, but she wasn’t having any of it. She got her own selfie 😂 Swipe to see, along with our very 2020ish card... of which I only mailed to about 50% of the people I meant to. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Cheers! 🥂

Merry Christmas Eve to those who celebrate! If you

Merry Christmas Eve to those who celebrate! If you've been here for a while, you know that I love Christmas decorations. There was a hiccup in getting them up this year, but I'm happy with how they turned out. Here are a few photos - many more plus some details on the blog in my Holiday Home Tour at the link in my bio.

This year, we have:
1️⃣ Chinoiserie blue, white, and green tree
2️⃣ Traditional burgundy and royal purple tree
3️⃣ Animal print tree
4️⃣ Family tree with some bourbon tie-ins (can you spot the bourbon brands on the tree?)

I try not to pick a favorite tree, but think I have one this year. Which one do you like the best? 🎄
