{CLOTHES I LOVE} PIXIE PANTS

As I branch out and share a few fashion posts here and there with you, I thought I'd tell you about some of my favorite things in the closet that get worn over and over again.  (On a side note, I hate to call these "fashion" posts, because I'm NOT a fashion blogger, just a Mom that likes stylish, cute, comfortable clothes.  I thought you might want a glimpse of how I keep things comfortable, yet a little more on the pulled-together side.  When you look good, you feel good and more productive, right?  Not that I don't have my fair share of yoga pant days...)   I'm loving  Pixie Pants  from Old Navy and am finding them to be super versatile.  I can wear them year round, just changing out my shoe and top choice.  They have quite a bit of stretch, so I love that they're as comfortable as leggings but have a more polished look.   In winter, the legs are slim enough that they're great to tuck into tall boots.  I prefer wearing long......

HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE 2015 {BLOG HOP}

Today I'm so thrilled to participate with some of my blogger friends in a Holiday Gift Guide Hop.  Here are some of my top gift suggestions, many tried and true by our family.  Have fun checking out my picks, and then make sure to visit the other bloggers participating at the end of my post for their top gift picks, too. Many thanks to Rebekah from A Blissful Nest for organizing this fun hop! 1- Jord "Dover" Wood Watch in Koa and Black My husband owns this watch, wears it almost daily, and gets stopped by friends and strangers alike who compliment and want to know more about it.  Beautiful watch. 2- Jimmy Fallon's Pocket Dial for J. Crew Hubby thought it was funny and I should include it... and all proceeds go to charity, bonus! 3- Outdoor Patio Heater Even though we just added an outdoor fireplace, this would be great for the dining side of the patio, and especially for those chilly winter days when we're cooped up playing pi......
