thanksgiving outfits

Hi guys! Before this busy yet need-to-unwind weekend, I wanted to put up some Thanksgiving outfit ideas because I know it's a little bit of a struggle finding a classy, family-approved outfit that still looks cute! The rest of this week is going to fly by so I wanted to make sure I got these up before the ideas fluttered from my mind :-)

1. The Romantic

2. The Independent

3. The Creative

I really hope you found this helpful! I definitely don't know what I'm actually wearing but I am going shopping this weekend so I hope to find something new! Will definitely let you know once I do. Love you babes and Happy pre-Thanksgiving! Also, if you want to know where every detail is from, you can go to my Polyvore here!Xoxo,Christie

the beauty of classic gold rings

Hi guys! I wanted to show you the gold rings that are going to be my new staples in my little ring collection. I am a real sucker for just simple bands and not a lot of accessorizing, simple, simple, simple. I guess like the rest of my style hehe! From their new collection, the Alchemy Collection, Marva Atelier features gorgeous, gold rings that are just simple gorgeous.

Really hope you guys liked and I will be back soon! Thanks so much for your patience with this crazy week...I'm trying to get final school assignments done before Thanksgiving break (of course all the assignments are due the days we get back) so that is what I've been up to. ❤︎  But I can't wait for the holidays, woo!

new house plants

Hi guys! So yesterday, as you can probably guess from the title of this blogpost, I bought new plants for my room/apartment! I went to Union Square Market before it is taken up by Christmas booths, and went to my favorite plant section and picked out a couple of new babies for my collection. I don't know what it is, but buying new plants literally makes me happy on the inside. I also get sick of plants easily (I know...that doesn't even make sense...but I do). I bought 3 plants and so I decided to shake up my room a little bit, re-arrange some things, and add my new plants!

 






I ended up getting mostly succulents, one big collection and one little guy (who I named Antonio) and that one medium-sized plant that literally looks like a bush of succulents. I'm so sorry I don't know his exact name! Honestly I don't know if he has a different name from the others. I am pretty positive they are all succulents.

I'm probably going to water them every week, or maybe less because I tend to over water my plants. I also like to leave them out in the sunlight on my window sill when the light comes in during the morning hours. Hopefully these will stick with me through the winter! I really love their colors and just how they liven my space up. 

And that's all! Today is Sunday and I'm listening to Christmas music and about to start on homework for the rest of the day. How excited is everyone for Thanksgiving and the holiday season? I'm seriously too excited. I definitely want to do a video in where I decorate my room for Christmas...but we have to wait for Thanksgiving to pass first hehe!

my current wishlist

Hi guys! So I wanted to do a little post about what I've been admiring + bookmarking this month for when I get the chance to go shopping. I've been feeling my neutral brown tones even more than usual (can you believe it) and overall just a French, detailed, simple style. Here's what is on my wish list!

  

Links...

-Madewell Cambridge Satchel

-White Turtleneck (Zara)

-& Other Stories White Lace Top

-& Other Stories bralette

-& Other Stories Nude Sweater

-Beret (Asos)

-Diptyque Candle

-Replica By The Fireplace Perfume

You know when youc an just picture yourself in something? That's how I feel with all of these items. I feel like lace and small details is making a comeback, surprisingly for winter, which I'm super thrilled about. Even though most lace is thin, wear a matching long-sleeve underneath with a coat and once you're inside take it off and voila, you look ultra chic. Delicate necklaces against lace is so beautiful too. Also, I'm really excited for that & Other Stories bralette because I want to layer it on top of turtlenecks and sweaters...call me crazy?! And I feel the need to splurge on another Diptyque candle. I love using them afterwards to store things so I try to convince myself it is a justified purchase. Anyway, what is on your wish list?! Would love to know!

Xoxo,
