November Lovelier Wish List

I always have a wish list running in my head - whether it's a grocery wish list or a clothing wish list - something is always brewing in this brain of mine. I have come up with a November wish list of items I am 'wishing' were in my closet or home. This list is mainly just items I am drooling over & I will probably purchase at least one of these items this month. :)
Enjoy browsing my wants ;)

Zara Scarves. . . Need I say more? They're perfect.


Furs, Capes, & Hats OH MY!


Smackin' My Lips


Christmas Scents. . . Time to stock up for December!


Lindsay Letters. . . If only my home could be wall to wall in Lindsay Letters

Coffee Coffee Coffee! My Favorite!

Christmas Celebration Dinner #OOTN

Yay! It FINALLY feels like Christmas in South Carolina!

We've done a few Christmasy things so far this season - gone to several Christmas church serves, gone to a drive through light show, gone to see 50 decorated trees from all over the upstate, and gone to see the gingerbread houses in Asheville --- all SO fun, but tonight I finally feel like it's time to celebrate Christmas and most importantly the birth of our Saviour!!!

Ceej and I went out with my godparents and parents tonight to a delicious steak dinner - aka I'll be stuffed until 2015.

We got to open the first presents of the season, reflect on our year, and be jolly :)

Jesus has blessed Ceej & I like crazy in 2014 and I cannot wait to see what he does in us and through us in 2015. 

2015 is our wedding year - we're about 4 months away now! Prayers are greatly appreciated!!!! 

I wanted to share with you my outfit from tonight - such a fun Christmas outfit - and I definitely felt like it was screaming to be worn on New Years!

I do not have a full picture - but the boots are TO DIE FOR! They're over the knee black suede boots purchased from Shoe Dazzel last year -- I'll work on linking some similar ones below :)

Girls - you NEED to have sequins in your life - so girly - so fun - so me!!! I cannot have enough sequins in my life!


Necklace // J. Crew

Blazer // H&M

Tank // Old Navy

Skirt // Nordstrom (Old)

Tights // Target

Boots // Shoe Dazzel


Hope Y'all have a blessed Monday night & a crazy good Tuesday!!!

XO,
Mal

Holiday Gift Guide { For The Ladies In Your Life } Part 1

Christmas is just around the corner!!!
It's time to start buying gifts for your loved ones! :)
Here are some gift ideas for the lovely ladies in your life!
Hunter Wellies are a must have & they make the perfect Christmas gift! I wear my wellies all the time - they are so comfortable, practical, cute, and high quality. Nordstrom runs sales on these wellies frequently - especially at their semi- annual sale! Red wellies are so stylish and are perfect for the holiday season or year-round!
Have you ever walked into Anthropologie and wondered what that amazing smell is? It's this candle! The Volcano Candle is one of my favorite scents! It fills up the room & lasts forever!
Moon & Lola is a precious company! They have some of the cutest jewelry & it's all great quality! This monogram necklace is to die for! It is just so classy! 

If you have the Zara Blanket Scarf, then you know why this is on my gift guide! It is the softest scarf I own - it screams fall & is goes with EVERYTHING! Join the wait list for this scarf & enjoy the cold months while looking cute :)

The Swell Water Bottle is one of the best water bottles - hands down!
Here's what the company has to say:
The Only Reusable Bottles That Look Great & Do Good.
Our bottles are beautifully crafted composed of non-leaching and non-toxic 18/8 stainless steel, that keeps your drinks cold for 24 hours and hot for 12, while giving back to those in need. S’well is a charitable community member and proud partner of charitable organizations such as WaterAid, American Forests, and Drink Up. 

White Elephant Designs has some of the cutest home monogram products! Their shop is full of great Christmas gifts! Whether it's the monogram coffee cup, monogram cocktail glass, or monogram acrylic serving tray - the ladies in your life would love to get a gift from this adorable shop!

The Dior Lip Glow is one of my favorite beauty products! The Lip Glow moisturizes while adding shine. What makes this 'chapstick' different is that it changes the color on your lips. Your color will be different than mine - it brings out the natural pink hues in your lips without adding artificial coloring.
*STOCKING STUFFER ALERT*

My love for Birchbox is no secret. I pay $10 a month & get surprised with 5-7 amazing beauty samples. What better way to try products than with samples chosen by beauty masters? The girls at Birchbox are precious - I love watching their beauty videos and reading their blog. If you do not have a Birchbox membership - treat yourself & sign up NOW! Then gift your girlfriends with a birch box subscription for Christmas! { Birchbox subscriptions also make amazing bridesmaids gifts! } 

Ugg Boots are a fan favorite. By far the best winter shoe! Some people think they're ugly, but who cares what others think - it's all about comfort when wearing a casual outfit outdoors in the winter. I place these comfies on my feet everyday after market in January & wear them everyday at home during the cold months. Some gals have a difficult time splurging on goodies like these - so go buy them some for Christmas! They will love you forever & ever Amen :) 

LOVE these Stone Cross Bangles! The colors are perfect for any season & they looked great stacked! Perfect gift for your girlfriends!  
*STOCKING STUFFER ALERT*

Another lovely Anthropologie candle! This has been a long time favorite of mine! I first found it at The Sanctuary in Kiawah - then came home to find it in our Anthropologie! The smell is so comforting and welcoming. Another bonus - it comes in several sizes - one size will even fit in your stocking!
*STOCKING STUFFER ALERT* 

Can you believe I put my must have Toms on my gift guide? :) These booties are the most comfortable booties ever! Say goodbye to changing shoes five times a day when doing an event - just place these booties on & kiss your worries away!

These Yosi Samra Flats are not only on my gift guide - but they are also on my personal Christmas list! I have heard amazing things about these flats - they are super cute & are supposed to be crazy comfortable! If any of you have tried these beauties then comment or email with your review! 

My favorite J Crew { Factory } Bracelet! This bracelet goes with everything! Buy 1, 2, or 3 - 1 goes great with a watch - but buy more to go with some bangles! This bracelet is a steal & on SALE now! Get it while supplies last :) 
*STOCKING STUFFER ALERT*

Mal's Holiday Gift Guide {For The Ladies In Your Life} Part 2 will be on the Bloggity Blog next Thursday!
Also - remember that Nordstrom does free shipping & returns :)
