And maybe another part of you is the teeniest bit resentful that you were given something Read more

Movie Preview: Nothing Like the Holidays

Sure, when I first saw the poster and description for Nothing Like the Holidays, I kinda groaned inside. Nothing like another reheated family holiday flick!

Winter White Bouquets

I'm excited to present a post from one of my favorite sites, Stylelist Home. One thing that I find beautiful about Winter is the calm that comes over me when I look at the fresh white snow blanketing the city, so regal, pure, and somewhat innocent. It changes the color palette of the world around you for a couple of months, which is bound to affect how you see things. Just like the seasonal Read more
