Today we are covering my breakfast room makeover with Curator. I have been meaning to update my breakfast room forever. When this partnership came up it was perfect timing + the perfect excuse to finally get around to it. Curator is a brilliant paint company based out of Ireland and they have the most stunning range of colors. My breakfast room quickly went from bland to engulfed in a breathtaking blue. 

Shopping for holiday gifts can be a great time if you plan ahead. Which is why I’m getting an early start to gift guides this year. The holidays are fast approaching and I can barely believe it! I’m starting to make holiday plans with family and friends already. In the holiday spirit, it’s time for the next installment in this year’s collection of gift guides. Today’s gift guide is geared towards gifts for the home decor and entertaining obsessed. Between $200-$500 these gifts are on the more expensive side, but are guaranteed to wow!

Finally, we got a bit of rain here in Southern California this week. It is a good thing it rained because mid calf black boots have been on my mind for weeks. My fall/winter wardrobe is in major need of an upgrade this season. The rain is the perfect excuse! Right?One of the biggest categories that needs help is the footwear department. I’m a huge fan of boots. I can never have enough + they look good pre-pall – spring. Anyways… I’ve been doing some research and found a ton of incredible Mid Calf Black Boots that I can’t wait to share with you.

Lately, I have been guilty of dreaming of English Homes for Sale. Does anyone else enjoy browsing house listings and thinking about your life there? It can’t be just me! Years ago I thought I was going to move to London for a bit. I was between jobs and started the process. Before I got too far along in my plans a recruiter reached out here and I never ended up leaving. On a recent trip, I went outside of London and learned I would love to own a home in the English Countryside or suburbs one day.

When I ran across this rustic cabin makeover I knew I had to cover it! This New Hampshire cabin is completely off the grid. Alice Saunder knew immediately once she saw it that it was going to be hers. With the help of her boyfriend, they turned this bare-bones cabin into a sanctuary. It was no easy task. The cabin had no electricity, running water or even cell reception. The end result is simply amazing! It makes me want to go buy a rustic cabin right now.

What better way to kick-off November than to start making holiday gift guides! I can’t believe how fast time is moving – The holidays are right around the corner. As someone who is really busy, I love to start my holiday shopping early. I hate the stressfulness of waiting till the last minute. My first gift guide of the season is gifts under $100 – from cheap to chic! Each item has a version under $35 and a second option at $65-$100.
