As much as they are cheerful, the holidays bring so many expenses. Holiday parties, family travel, decor, and presents. Without a pre-made budget, this can easily get very expensive and on top of the holiday expenses you still have normal bills! No wonder so many people sink further into debt during the holidays. It may be too early this year to get a budget and savings plan in place, but it’s never too early for next year. By setting a holiday budget and putting money away up front, you avoid that post-holiday money hangover. The earlier you start, the...

One thing I love to do around the holidays, is to travel with my family. I don’t like to travel too far because we have a lot going on, but it’s nice to get a short break away just the four of us. Since we have season passes to Universal Orlando, one of my favorite things is to spend a weekend, or at least a full day out at the parks. With the time of travel, traffic, and parking, we like to stay at a hotel right there every so often. This is exactly why we picked Hyatt House...
Today is the first day of December and the kids just broke out their advent calendars to start counting down to Christmas day! Since, I recently finished decorating the house and it’s time to get into the holiday spirit, I thought I would share some of my favorite Holiday movies with all of you. These are all classics and will bring Christmas sooner than you think! Charlie Brown Thanksgiving – I normally have this movie playing in the background while we are cooking for Thanksgiving. My kids really enjoy this one and it puts you in the Thanksgiving spirit....
One of my favorite things about trends is how designers start them, then smaller designers/brands mimic them at more affordable main stream prices. Another thing about trends though is how they don’t always stick around, so I am very budget conscious when I shop for trendy pieces. One trend that I think will stick around for a while though is the scarf print trend and chain print. These are trends inspired by the Hermes scarf, which is a classic and elegant brand. My girlfriend Miki styled a gorgeous scarf print outfit here, and when I saw this gorgeous Tibi...
I have always loved blazers and how versatile they are. You can dress them up, or down and are a closet staple for any career woman. Women began wearing them when the trend to wear menswear came about and I have always loved how a woman wearing a properly tailored blazer is a very classy and sexy look. Plaid is one of the hottest patterns almost every fall and so I think its great to have a plaid blazer in your wardrobe this time of year.

Thanksgiving is this week!! Yay, I’m excited to only work 3 days and then start decorating for Christmas the day after. Dressing for Thanksgiving always seems to be a hard task for me. I normally attend two different Thanksgivings on the same day, one more dressy than the other. So, I decided to do a round up of some outfit options in case you needed a bit of inspo for Thanksgiving! These are some great fall outfit choices and you probably have some similar pieces in your closet that you can mix and match to create these looks. Read on...
Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. I am not a fan of cold weather, but I love the colors of the leaves changing and cute fall decor. We don’t get to see all the foliage change here in Florida, so instead I try and decorate a bit around my house to make it feel more cozy and like fall has arrived. One way I like to do that is by adding some fall table decor to my dining area. This is what people first see when then enter my home, so it’s a great way...
Do you wanna make a fan bun? *Frozen music blaring in my head, do you wanna build a snow man?* Here is a super easy tutorial, that’s great for clean, or dirty hair. (Preferably that few days unwashed hair that now you don’t have time to wash, blow dry, and style.) When you don’t know how you should wear your hair for your next event, try out this super easy fan bun. It takes less than 10 minutes, your husband will love you for it, and your girlfriends will be surprised when you show up to the party before...
Over the knee boots and thigh high boots were always a fascination to me growing up. I remember OTK boots mostly being associated with movies like pretty women, but they have more recently become a very classy and iconic fashion statement. Another fashion trend I am loving is the belt bag/fanny pack. Here, I decided to take my cross-body and convert it into a belt bag by wrapping it around my waist! OTK BOOTS UNDER $100 OTK boots are a wardrobe staple for me during the fall and winter. What I love most about these tall boots are that they...
I love to change my nail polish based on my mood, or my outfit, however taking the time to give myself and manicure and wait for them to dry can be a big PIMA lol. Esp, if I have to run out the door quickly for an event. This is one reason that I love press on nails because there is a huge variety and I don’t ruin my nails with super glue. Even though there is a big variety when it comes to press ons because there are so many brands to shop now: Kiss, Bella Nails, and...
