I’m a classic red, green, and gold girly through and through! 😍 I love a very traditional Christmas style and even though my home is full of neutral tones, through the holiday season the halls are decked with as much glitter and holly as possible 😂

[#ad] I chose to keep my absolutely gorgeous 7’ Tribeca Blue Spruce @kingofchristmas tree really simple this year with just a mix of baubles and I really love how it turned out! ✨ Now to find the perfect topper...

Do you use a planner? 🗓️ I’m someone who l Do you use a planner? 🗓️

I’m someone who literally can’t live without a physical planner to write down to-do lists, client tasks, birthdays, appointments, and my blog schedule 🙈 The first thing I do every day is look at my planner to see what needs to be accomplished 📋

[#ad] I’ve used @thedaydesigner for nearly as long as I’ve been blogging (over 8 years now) and I seriously can’t recommend them enough! 🙌🏼 They’re the reason I manage to stay so organized while managing multiple businesses ☕️

You can imagine how excited I was when they reached out to work with me and I pretty much started drooling over my gorgeous Charcoal Bookcloth 2024 Weekly Planner and Romance Clipfolio 😍 These are going to be such lifesavers in the new year! 🤎 

You can find this planner and clipfolio in my LTK Shop and use the code ESPRESSOEDITION10 for a discount until March 2024 💳

Have you ever had a #DayDesigner planner? ✍🏼

I wrote up my Christmas reading list at the beginning of last week and lemme tell ya, I'm apparently attempting to read a book a day in December with how many titles I added 😂 But there are just SO MANY cute and festive holiday romcoms that I need in my life this season 🤎
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Usually, I find myself reaching for a couple of rereads, including THE AFTERLIFE OF HOLLY CHASE which I listen to every December without fail because it is my *favorite* Christmas book 📖 And this year I'll be rereading LOVELIGHT FARMS as well since I adored it so much last year 🎄

Seeing Stars in 2018

Happy New Year, everyone.  Here’s to 2018!

“There’s glitter on the floor after the party …”

Some would describe 2017 as a scooter kick to the ankles.  I can’t say I entirely disagree.  The year was filled with some of the most challenging moments of my adult life.  However, it also gave me some of the happiest memories I’ve ever made – including getting engaged to my best friend and scoring the biggest partnership of my career!  While I’m somewhat melancholy about seeing 2017 come to an end, I honestly can’t believe how quickly the year went by, and I’m ready for 2018 and the fresh start that it will bring.

If you get a chance, head on over to my Instagram page and watch my 2017 recap on my saved Instagram stories.  You’ll get a chance to relive the year with me, whether you’re new and it’s for the first time, or you’ve been following along and want to see how much has changed.  I know that it was quite intriguing going through my photos and seeing all the differences – even down to the simplest thing like my hair length and color (I started the year with barely shoulder-length locks and nearly always wore extensions for more length)!  I got to travel some, try new foods, and discover some new favorite brands.

I don’t like making resolutions.  In the end, they merely frustrate me rather than spur me on.  However, I like to make daily goals for myself and will continue to do so in the coming year.  I’d also like to make some new goals for my blog – including bringing more travel and relationship aspects (I already have some exciting things on my calendar in the next couple of months)!  I can say for a fact that 2018 is going to be fantastic, and that positivity is going to launch me into this new year with some serious confidence and creative juices.  Here’s to an amazing page-turner of a year.  Chapter one, page one – let’s begin.

“Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you …”

What is your favorite fantasy series (*right now*. What is your favorite fantasy series (*right now*... because we all know how quickly this can change)? 📚
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When it comes to books, fantasy is my first love 🤎 It all started when I was 6 years old and my family read The Chronicles of Narnia together--I was hooked and the rest is history 😂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I still adore Narnia (and desperately wish for a wardrobe that would transport me to another world), but I also have SO many other favorite fantasy series now 🙈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are 10 that have really stuck with me over the years:
🦌 Shadow and Bone
❣️ Shades of Magic
⛓️ The Prison Healer
🎪 Caraval
🧚🏼‍♀️ Wicked Lovely
⚱️ The Daevabad Trilogy
🩸 All Souls
🦋 Strange the Dreamer
⚔️ The Falconer
🌊 All the Stars and Teeth
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you read any of these? ☕️
