Trick of the day- Amazing Jewelry!

KATE BOSWORTH WEARING CASTELI NECKCLACE 

Friends,

I just HAD to share this with you. There is this great website that I have stumbled upon. Tah dah- it's JewelMint. It turns out that Kate Bosworth and her stylist Cher Coulter have started designing amazing jewelry at a super affordable price. Every piece is $29.99. Oh, did I also mention that Cher Coulter was just  honored with the title of stylist of the year?

So how does it work? They figure out your style with a set of scenarios where you pick which celebrity outfit you like the most, or the nail color you go to most often, or brands that you would buy if you had unlimited funds. Then they present you with your "showroom" and you can decide if you would like to buy any of those pieces.

Couldn't get any better? The 29.99 includes free shipping!

COSMOPOLITAN DROP EARRINGS

                                     GOLD CUFF                                                 REGAL CLUSTER EARRINGS

And, one last late Christmas present, today if you click on this link you can pay $25.00 and get $60.00 worth of credit at JewelMint. That's two gorgeous pieces of jewelry for the price of one.

Ahhhh, I love the holiday season.

Enjoy!

Merry Merry Merry Cards!

Merry Merry Merry Christmas Everyone!!

It's that day and you're with all your family and thank goodness Santa has already come to visit you.. what next? Driving to see more family? More conversations with crazy family members? Well, I know the routine just as well as the next person. So what is my trick for making Christmas Day that much better?

Cards (and cocktails of course)


It's classic, and it helps pass the time better than anything i've encountered. In fact, we play cards all the time. If you have to trek over to your great Aunt's house.. pack some cards so you can play gin or spades.. and if you are lucky enough to be fam jamming at home, put on your PJ's, grab your siblings and get the competitive juices flowing. Also, it's easy enough to play while you are drinking your bloody mary and watching the football games. It's really the game that keep on giving for all occasions.

I hope you all grow to love cards as much as we do.. and that you'll play them for many years to come. We play Gin Rummy (best with 3 people) and Spades (best with 4 people) mostly, but one of my Christmas Day presents is a Bridge lesson from the parents, so watch out ladies, we're bringing Bridge back.

Again, Merry Merry Merry to all of yours and I know that you'll all have a fabulous day!

Also- Also, Happy Birthday Tina Tina Bo Bina!

Top 5 Holiday must haves for this girl!

It's almost that time.. Christmas and the holidays are here and I would like to share a few of my favorite things with you.

So what's topping my list this year? Well, as any family holiday around my house- let's start off with something bubbly. 

1. Champagne Saucer Glasses

Yes, these squatty flutes caught my eye in an episode of HBO's Boardwalk Empire and I'm obsessed.  Www.wineware.co.uk has a great selection as seen in the picture above.

2. Cracker Caddy

Keep it simple. Don't worry about the crackers scattering everywhere! Put them in this Cracker Caddy and your cheese plate will look wonderful no matter how many (or how few) crackers are left!

3. Not sure to do with everything leftover?

My new inspiration for sandwiches, welcome to http://scanwiches.com. Great look- great taste and a way to get you out of your usual leftovers.

4.  Bring in the New Year with Style

You can find them everywhere now so start the New Year off right, wear that old black dress but bring it to life with a Fascinator! I know I am! Old school camera optional.. but let's be honest.. i'll be donning that as well!

5. Just in case

As always, something will go wrong, so don't worry. These little guys can help you out at a moments notice without having to do any extra dishes.  The Francis Ford Coppola winery really won me over when they put delicious sparkling in a can and gave you a bendable straw to go with it. Heaven on earth friends! And it's so discreet.. some people may just think you're having a soda. Or as they say, "you can take it anywhere- anytime you feel like sparkling." 

OoOOooo.. now that we've kicked off the holiday, I'm off to California with the family for the holidays!

Love love love!

Caroline

I'm back!!
