We get a real tree every year. It’s just what we do. And normally we wait until the first weekend of December to buy it.
But this year we bought it right after Thanksgiving so Caroline could help us pick out our tree. We found a lovely one. It’s a Nordeman fir and is allegedly hypoallergenic. I don’t know about that. We chose it because we liked the shape.
Anyway, I put lights on it on Monday and finally decorated it today and I’m pretty sure it may already be dead. This doesn’t bode well for what it will look like come December 25. The lesson is maybe don’t buy a real tree when the temperatures are still in the 80s.
I keep threatening to buy a fake tree and this may be the year that pushes me over the edge.
Here are some cute things I found this week:
1. cozy notch collar duster cardigan
This is such a great cardigan. I love the neutral colors and the length. This is basically all the winter coat you need in Texas.
It’s normally $128 but on sale for $64. It comes in several other colors.
This is such a pretty coat. I really would like it but I have no need for another winter coat considering it’s barely been in the 50s here.
This is $78.
I love this dress. Super easy to dress up or down and just easy to wear.
It’s $76.
4. rock it any day red plaid shacket
I know I’ve featured many a shacket, but I really like this red plaid one for the holiday. It’s very festive.
It’s $56.
This set looks so dreamy and is sold as separates. The pullover also comes in a dark green. It’s $54.95.
And these aerie marshmallow pants are perfection.
They come in several colors and are $49.95.
6. pilcro the wanderer denim overalls
You know how I love a pair of overalls and these are darling. Such a great color and I love the embroidery.
They are on sale for $119.
This shirt is so cute and on sale for $91.
8. bdg alissa jacquard duster cardigan
Urban Outfitters has some of the best cardigans and sweaters. I love this one.
It’s $148.
9. satin dress
This satin dress is so simple and elegant. It would be so pretty for a Christmas party.
It’s just $34.99
10. appliqué sweater
H&M makes great sweaters. I really love this one.
It’s $39.99.
That’s it for today.
Have a good Friday.
