time is running out + 3 things on my mind…

Time is running out on holiday shopping! For great gift ideas check out my guides for TWEENS/TEENS, THE BEAUTY LOVER, MEN, THE GIRL WHO HAS EVERYTHING, KIDS, HOME & THE NEW MOM 

The temperature dropped here in California last week and has continued. I secretly love it, even though Californians are supposed to be bummed when it gets below 70. Since we had a few cool days I found my excuse to wear this Amuse faux fur jacket (more sizes HERE) I love so much! Paired with a white tee, denim and my trusty Van’s I was more than ready for some holiday shopping! Lisa Allen of LunchPails and Lipstick wearing a faux fur from Amuse Society

3 things on my mind…

1. The kids left for Arizona Sunday. They will be back on Christmas Eve. I dread this week each year. Usually it’s the week after Christmas till the New Year. Regardless of the when they go I miss having them here. Often people say how lucky I am to have a break or how nice that must be to be alone with Jeff for an entire week. It is nice. But I worry so much about them while they are away and forget to enjoy myself. I’m working on it.

2.When you ask your husband what he wants for Christmas and he fills the Amazon cart with stain, oil, glue, bits, tools and blades..you know you’re married to a woodworker.

3. I recently saw that Natalie Portman wore these Steve Madden heels I posted about HERE to the Critics Choice Awards. Good call Natalie! For real, these can be worn to any event, even a star studded one!

  1. Being a huge L & L follower, do you have have any suggestions for the impossible-to-buy-for carpenter boyfriend? Any & all advice is greatly appreciated!

    • Hi Alex! Get him a Festool! Google it and find a retailer or try Amazon Prime. They are my husbands favorite brand. That or if you need something quick and easy, clamps. Jeff has prob 80 and it’s never enough.
      Hope this helps, good luck! XXO lisa
