It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
Our beach bungalow is currently in the process of having its halls decked and I couldn't be more excited
about it.
The second we put away our dishes from Thanksgiving....
The Christmas music started making it's debut. Along with our tree, some/all the ornaments I could find
and decorations galore.
Nothing says cheer like a bowl full of glittery ornaments, some Christmas Virginia Living issues,
gorgeous candles and my husbands prized antler bar tool set. I simply call it a reindeer this time of year.
Note to self: I think all christmas decorations are beautiful. I really do. I choose however to only use
white, gold and silver when given an option. A few dashes of green and red are necessary to keep
me married.
A little dash of Christmas Martha etc. Plus more candles.
I apologize for A. The blinding lights and B. The non styled bookcase ( I was unpacking
decor/organizing). Our tree fits perfectly against the
wall of windows into the courtyard. Plus I can see it across the way when I'm cooking or we are eating
in the dining room.
$20 bucks if you can spot my new coffee filter wreath! It looks teeny but it's a 24 inch round, our
fireplace just happens to be 6 feet across.
I don't think I could have glued one more coffee filter on.
Ahhhh, who can honestly say that they don't like twinkle lights?
That's as far as I've gotten for now! Kitchen, nooks and dining area to come!

What Im Loving!
Well hello there strangers, especially David!
I'm surprised they didn't shut down my URL and kick me off the blogosphere.
Even though I've been busy there are too many things I'm loving this Wednesday.
A link up with the gorgeous Jamie? Don't mind if I do.
Yall, this show is my new guilty pleasure. Yes, the plot line is the same every week but Rachel Bilson is the cutest and I constantly try to convince J we need to find our own Bluebell to settle down in!
I have been loving Coffee-mates holiday creamers! A little peppermint really makes it feel like Christmas! The pumpkin was fabulous and next on my list is eggnog!
I made a coffe filter wreath for our chimney this holiday season. This is not my wreath but a general idea. Super cute and super neutral, just my style. Mine is sans ribbon and + one sparkly bird.
My sweet husband bought me tickets to see Wicked up in LA this weekend for my birthday! He knew I had been wanting to see it forever so we are heading up north for a mini getaway. So excited!
Revlon fire color burst gloss. The PERFECT Christmas red.
Black Cherry lipstick. Looks crazy dark but it's crazy amazing. I would have worn this on my wedding day if I had discovered it sooner. Be warned, it is very plum but I can't stop wearing it!
I'm Loving that we are staying at Mr. C's hotel in Beverly Hills for our getaway. It is to die for.
I'm seriously loving dark dark walls. Swoon.
My interior doors would all be painted black. All of 'em.
Happy alllll most December!!!

Misc. Monday!
First off, let me just say, " Hi, Mom!"...She told me she was sick of reading about the Southern Living Dream house on my blog. Please, as if you could get sick of that house.
I thought I'd do a little Misc Monday link up. Cheers to Monday!
1. This was the first weekend we've had "just us two" in probably 2 months. We have love love loved all our visitors and trips but it has been so nice to just sit. relax. clean and regroup. I got caught up on all the sleep I needed ( by taking a 4 hour nap Saturday!!), we hit up the local farmers market, I repainted our bedroom furniture, cleaned the house from top to bottom, went on a great walk with a gf, and even broke out the Uggs. Yes, a little unnecessary but it was kind of chilly here on Friday night so I jumped the gun ;) I can not wait for fall!
Over sized button up, riding boots, leggings, scarf, neutral? Yes please!
2. We had the best time in Sonoma with our friends A and R. The wedding we attended ( a co-worker of hubs and R) was SO GORG! The sun setting over the vineyard, long barn tables, flowers, romantic touches and perfect weather. It was seriously out of this world. They looked amazing and anywhere that serves mini- sliders and fries during cocktail hour is A-ok by me! We had the best time partaking in one tooooo many vineyards, relaxing, eating and enjoying wine country for the weekend. We discovered a few new fav reds as well that are going to be household staples from now on! Super fun!
I of course didn't take any pictures which is sad but oh so typical. I think A took a few so I'll have to see what I can get my hands on.
3. I'm currently rocking " You don't know Jacque" by OPI and it makes me happy. It's my transition color into Fall.It's what I wore on our wedding day and is one of my alllll time favorites.
4. To further force Fall upon Southern California, I'm making this Southern Living Pumpkin Crisp to take to my JL Potluck Tuesday. I have been craving pumpkin like no ones business. That and boiled peanuts. But really, that thats another story.
annnnnd....
I think thats enough misc for one Monday!
Have a great week!
