I thought since the holidays are upon us (can you believe it?) that I would share some quick gift ideas for those homemakers you know who are always throwing last minuet Christmas parties! You know, the ones with the meals all cooked to perfection and always working on improving their home. These gifts are all great hostess gifts and stay under $55. Enjoy!

They are the perfect work, travel and school tote and they are a good price for the amazing quality in these bags. I am hoping to get the beige le pliage for Christmas and wanted to share these perfect bags with you all! do you have a favourite?
A deep red is perfect for the winter months
My favourite!
Perfect if you want a special Christmas bag
Black is the best neutral colour as it will go with everything
A limited edition bag that would be perfect to tote to dance class
I might not be able to post as much this week as my Internet isn't working well!

Holiday Magic
All pictures by me
I have been a terrible blogger lately and haven't made time for blogging. Don't worry though because I am back and excited to get to posting again! Thank you to all those who continue to follow me and read, even when I don't blog daily. I have really gotten into the Christmas spirit even if it is not officially December yet. The smell of fresh baked goods, Christmas lights twinkling, festive music on the radio and everything glistening makes my toes tingle with excitement. I have even managed to start some Christmas shopping for my sisters and am looking forward to the Christmas holiday more than ever!
Enjoying warm cups of coco by the fire
Red and white lights, light up my roof
Cute little gifts to brighten others day (a little chocolate never hurt anyone)

like it will be nice this week!
What are you doing to prepare for the holidays?

Bagging it!

I love my technology just as much as the next girl and am constantly looking for new ways to improve it by making it more cute and chic. I thought I would share some laptop sleeves that have beautiful patterns and would look amazing while carrying! I love how designers are offering more females cases now. I currently have a bright pink case but will contemplate buying one of these cute covers.
Do you have any favourites?

Ruby Red
I love the colour red but I recently realized I don't own any red iteams. I like the bright pop of colour it can add to any outfit and even small accessories personlize an outfit. These are a few items I would love to add to my wardrobe! Do you have any favourite red items?

I found this wonderful list of ways to stay creative on Sterling Style and thought it was so brilliant I needed to share. I think creativity is an amazing skill to posses and allows you to inspire others. I often do #'s 8,11, and 9. What ways are you creative?
Hope you had wonderful Halloween!

Sick Days
Delicious warm drinks
I have been home, sick since Saturday night. Although it has been a nice break to rest and relax it certainly isn't worth it if I can't function well. That is also why I sadly didn't post yesterday but I think I will be back on my feet tomorrow and will have some outfit posts to share! Here is what I did while I was sick...
