HAPPY DECEMBER! December is, for sure, my favorite of the winter months. Plaid, holiday parties, and Christmas lights everywhere? The January hits and I’m ready for spring, ha. Decorations are already starting to pop up around here in Connecticut. Living for it!
While I was in Tampa, I popped into the Anthropologie store in Hyde Park, like, every other day. There’s something about it that gets me in the holiday spirit. (And they’re pros at making me want to purchase everything!) Great gifts right now too…
Here’s what has been on my radar this week:
ONE // ASPCA Ornaments
This puppy ornament is so cute! A reader sent it to me because she thought it looked like Teddy and I completely agree. With every ornament purchased they donate $1 to the ASPCA too.
TWO // Tartan Ballet Flat
I wore these flats on my blog last week, and they were sold out. Just found them stocked in every size, so I wanted to pass it along to you in case you missed out on purchasing!
THREE // Ava Phillippe’s Debut
Ava Phillippe, Reese Witherspoon’s daughter, debuted in Paris. Reminds me of the episode of The Hills where Lauren Conrad declines to go to Paris with Teen Vogue. I loved Ava’s dress though– simply stunning!
FOUR // Bow Jeans
After lusting over these jeans with bows down the leg for a couple of months, I finally tried them on. I loved them, and then I looked at the price tag. Definitely out of my budget for a pair of jeans I can’t wear every day, but… I’m kind of thinking it’d be an easy and cute DIY.
FIVE // Anne Hathaway Bought a House in Westport
Owning a house in Westport is a dream of mine. Don’t think it will ever happen, but it’s still fun to look at Zillow now and then. My friends and I have all been pretty excited when we heard that Anne Hathaway bought a house in Westport. She’s right down from the beach I take the pups to in the winter!
Love reading your blog everyday! We have similar style and anxiety too….I’ve learned a lot about myself. Enjoy daily meditation now. TY
Happy December, Carly! I can’t quite believe it’s almost the end of the year. I saw the news about Anne Hathaway’s new house. It was very expensive LOL!

Omg, those ornaments are too cute! Definitely need to visit west elm to pick some up!
Lol, #neverforget when LC turned down Paris. Also Ava is literally Reese Witherspoon’s mini me.
I hope Anne keeps the AGA! Definitely on my wishlist <3
Those jeans would be a great DIY! Maybe put every bow on a little safety pin so they can come off for washing/wearing the jeans without them. Have a great weekend! xAllie http://www.theallthatglittersblog.com
Ava Phillippe looked amazing in her dress! Wow! I also remember watching that episode of the hills – boy do I miss that show.

Oh to have a Parisian debut! I envy Ava. That is something every girl dreams of!
When I found out Anne Hathaway bought a house in the town next to me I screamed! Last winter I ran into her at Terrain and was suspicious why she was in Westport!
