PS Did you see the AMAZING Lilly prints on the Lilly blog?
a little bit of life, a little bit of style, and everything in between.
Just want to go on record to say that I have loved bows and worn bows in my hair before it was cool 🎀
…. and I’ll still wear them when the trends move on 😜

📌 Save this post! Can’t get over the MAGIC that is @backtonature.nj’s Christmas Market during the holidays! 🎄🌟🎅🏻🧣The decor this year is on a new level. If you need to get into the holiday spirit (or pick up speciality gifts or more decorations for your home), 100% recommend making the drive! It’s worth it ❄️
When you don’t actually feel cute but then kind of end up feeling cute because you put a bow in your hair, slipped into a dress that fits, and swiped on your favorite red lipstick 💋 @hillhouse @annmashburn 🎥 by @carterfish, maybe I’ll post the video without music so you can hear her hyping me up, because you can’t imagine the crowd the bore witness to the making of this Reel 🫣
And then there were three ❤️❄️🎄🌟⛸️ Needlepoint stockings are a huge undertaking… they take hours (and hours and hours) of stitching. The final results are more than worth the effort though. These will hang on our mantle every Christmas and I can’t think of anything more special than that. I finished Mike’s stocking at the end of the summer after stitching almost every night for seven months. I am taking a little break and then I’ll start on the baby’s stocking for next Christmas!! 🥹

FROM THE ARCHIVES ❄️⛸️🌲some of my past favorite winter looks mostly because I miss real pants and being able to button my coats
This tree feels extra special this year. 🎄💫⛸️❤️🕯️ Jack is fully embracing the magic of Christmas (“kiss miss”) and his enthusiasm is downright contagious!
Not one of my best qualities, but I typically feel immense pressure trying to make things feel extra special and perfect and then I get disappointed when the reality doesn’t live up to my (unrealistic) expectations. I wish I could blame social media for this.... but I know the call is coming from inside the house.
This tree seems perfect to me, though, just the way it is. It was a true group effort getting it here. Another one of my not-so-great qualities is that I’m terrible at asking for help when I need it.... this year, I can’t ignore it though. I needed help, and a lot of it. Mike got every holiday storage box up from the basement (no small feat) and hoisted the into the house and got it up in the stand within minutes (then redid it twice to get the angle of the tree just so); my mom and I took multiple trips to the hardware store and drug store for the “right” colored lights (in case you’re wondering, “bright white” is warm yellow and “warm white” is actually bright white... make it make sense); my mom wrapped the tree in lights a second time when we learned the hard way that when the box says you can’t plug in more than five strands together they mean it; and Jack was there to help and hype us all up to say how “boo-full” the tree and lights are– and keeping us in line by scolding and reminding us that we aren’t allowed to touch the ornaments 🤭
I feel a little pang of sadness that we aren’t celebrating a first Christmas with a baby who was supposed to be here, while also struggling through a third trimester (just feeling physically tired and exhausted), while also cherishing our last Christmas as a family of three, while also getting excited knowing our baby will be here before we know it. Sure, it’s a lot of pressure to put on one single tree, yet here I am. ⭐️
Spent the weekend decking the halls 🎄 the garland is up, the tree is up, the wreaths are up! Fueled by three peppermint mochas, one bag of Milanos peppermint slices, one batch of chocolate chip cookies, and one loaf of zucchini bread… my mom and I got it done 🙏🏻
This made me smile because it just reminded me how much I love February & pink & candy & Lilly prints…
AND THEMES! oops sorry for the double comment 🙂
I love those PINK HUNTERS!!! I too love the month of February just because everything is pink & red -love love love. xoxo Carly
LOVE LOVE LOVE it all! I think I am now even more excited for Valentine's xxx
Ugh they have a hot pink packageing tape roller/dispenser thing at my px (store). It's kind of amazing.
You're a girl after my own heart, missy! Can't get enough of pink – although on this valentine's day, my friends and I will be having a single gals catch up – with lots of bubbles no doubt!
love all these cute pink picks! esp the hunter boots 🙂 xoxo jcd

i like february because of its brevity….were that much closer to spring!
Blueberries!!!! loved that video you posted : )
the pink hunters are so cute too, are they recent?
I'm with you on the no Valentine thing–I know exactly what I want and I like instant gratification haha. Thanks for getting me ready and excited for this great month!
i love the love letters print!! it's such a great one, especially with the cream, navy, and pink. it's a shame they didn't do more of that and less of the weird navy blue with the sticky white on top!
I love the Lilly Prints! And I'm with you about February–a wonderfully feminine month. 🙂
I love the Lilly prints 🙂 They also have sorority prints for KD, DZ, KKG, and ∆∆∆ <3 One of my ∆∆∆ sisters interned at Lilly this summer and helped drive the initiative for the sorority prints
Ah, I love this post! 😀

My February desktop!
I love buying candy for myself too!!!
Yay for a pink-filled month! Love all of these.
I hate winter, but Valentine's day is such a great reason to break out the pinks amongst the winter grays! And, of course, I love chocolate (huuuge sweet tooth).
That picture of the carmel apples with the cute valentine's day candy inspired me to make those! I found the same picture on we<3it a few days ago!
love the rain boots!
Oh my goodness, pink Hunters, how FANTASTIC :)?!
Ooh, this reminds me that I need to get some pretty pink polish. The best thing about Valentine's Day? The candy sales afterward! Godiva, I'm coming for you.
So I saw the Lilly scarf and it reminded me that I just found out she's selling her house (in FL I believe)!!! If I had the 11.5 million $ to buy it I TOTALLY WOULD! Just saying…
