Weekend Reading 12.4.2020
Happy weekend! This week flew by and frankly, I’m fine with that because A: It was another rough one and B: it’s supposed to snow tomorrow! It’s been unseasonably warm lately, and though my relationship with winter is tenuous from January through March, I love a little snow on the ground for the holidays, and I’d love to use my new snowshoes. This weekend I have a few photos to shoot and I’m planning on kicking off my holiday shopping. Chris and I are keeping things really light this year and only gifting each other small stocking stuffers (stockings were always my favorite gift anyway). But I’m hoping for some stud earrings for the second holes I got pierced last spring. I’ve been on the hunt for some simple studs lately and small quality earrings are proving surprisingly hard to find! They’re always handy to have, especially since I’m considering a 3rd piercing now, too. Along with some cute earrings, I’m hoping for a super bright scarf (on sale!), and some cute and cozy pajamas (not exactly a stocking stuffer, I suppose…). I’ve been really enjoying taking a simpler approach to the holidays this year but I love that so many decorations are already up, it feels so festive! i hope you have a nice weekend planned - on to the links. As always, take what yah need. XO
