Christmas Dinner with the Cast of “Love Actually”

December 17, 2016 27 Comments

Love Actually is one of my favorite movies! The cast is splendidly perfect, and the “love stories” are heart-breakingly beautiful! To me, this is one of the best holiday movies of all time! That’s why I would want to invite all of the main characters over for a holiday dinner party. You might not recognize this movie as a “holiday movie”, but it is. These intertwined stories take place during the month of December in London. If you’re not familiar with this movie, you must watch it immediately! You will fall in love with it! Even though this movie came […]

This is My Year: Unboxing the FabFitFun Winter Box

Dressing for the Holidays

December 12, 2016 No Comments

Dressing for the holidays doesn’t always mean ugly sweaters or fancy party dresses. If you’re going out for dinner with friends, you could pair a simple dress with a brightly colored cardigan. But for me, having a few beautiful statement pieces can make the outfit even more special. Today’s dress form outfit is as much about the accessories {jewelry} as it is about the outfit.
