Hope you all had a great weekend! 
My sister and I were in Duxbury, Massachusets visiting my brother. 
Duxbury is an adorable little town about 45 minutes from Boston.
I had been to Boston once for a very quick weekend, but this was my first time really driving around New England and getting to see all of the gorgeous homes.  
The history in these quaint little beach towns is insane!  
Even my brother’s driveway and front yard had character…. and a flag pole!

 WEARING :  RL RALPH LAUREN QUILTED JACKET in navy // on super sale! 

I thought it was so neat that you can drive your car onto the beaches there.
It was chilly but a beautiful weekend! 
Sorry for my lack of more photos…. I forgot my phone on our two hour car ride exploring so I didn’t get any pictures of the gorgeous homes! 


In honor of Mariah’s premiere last night and the arrival of the Christmas season, 
please enjoy this version of “Santa Claus is coming to the Berkshires” featuring the Real Housewives of NYC. 

“Santa Claus is coming to the Berkshires”
If this doesn’t get you in the holiday spirit, I don’t know what will! 
What did you all think of the show?
The first couple minutes of her talking as her alter-ego + arch nemesis Bianco Storm is SO FREAKING WEIRD.  
She is such a crazy pants diva.  


Thank you for the e-mails and referral links for Dollar Shave Club! 

I used the first one that was sent to me, and I am so excited for the razors to arrive because everyone e-mailed over such great reviews.


If you are still getting your Christmas decorations set up,
here are some great inexpensive decor items for you! 
Ours is just about finished (I went to this warehouse store called AtHome and Oh-em-Gee I had to force myself to leave…. I could have been in there for 4 hours there was so much to look at.  Even the check-out-lane was a mile long with millions of things I wanted – like a HomeGoods/Marshalls check-out line on crack)

 // STRIPED PILLOW //      //  CANDLE HOLDER  //      // MERRY AND BRIGHT COASTERS // 

//  PASTEL BULB STRING LIGHTS //         // GET LIT PARTY BANNER // 

// GOLD DOT ORNAMENTS //         //  DONUT ORNAMENTS // 
// MACARON ORNAMENTS //          // STRIPED ORNAMENTS // 


all of the above are as affordable as they are adorable! 
I want those donut and macaron ornaments ASAP! 
I lost a whole box of our ornaments last Christmas at our condo in Chicago somehow so I am needing to stock up on some more this year.  
I’m determined to take some home photos and share this week, which will include some of our Christmas decorations, so hopefully that’ll be tomorrow or Fridays post!
