holiday cups at starbucks || they’re here, they’re here! the long-anticipated holiday cups have arrived at starbucks and i can’t lie, it’s getting me into the holiday spirit. normally i try to subscribe to the “no christmas decor/celebrating until after thanksgiving” but given the stress of the world these days, i think i’m going to embrace full holiday mode starting NOW.

 

madewell x no.6 || my favorite store is teaming up with nyc-based label no.6 to bring a capsule collection of dresses and jumpsuits just in time for the holiday season. the prints are a little outside of my comfort zone, but gorgeous nonetheless. here’s a sneak peek of some of the pieces, styled on madewell’s blog as well as a glimpse at this gorgeous blue and red dress that’s also included in the collection. all six pieces launch november 7th, and i can’t wait to see more!

 

old navy outerwear || i wouldn’t call myself the habitual old navy shopper, but every now and then, i find a piece that quickly becomes a closet staple. right now i can’t stop perusing (and subsequently drooling over) all of their outerwear. it’s SO good this season! right now i’m considering this, this, this, and this! i’m having a hard time justifying purchasing anything given where we live, but it’s still fun to look, right? perhaps i’ll make my way over to our local store in the next couple weeks and see if i can’t try some of the pieces on in person. here are a few of my favorites:

 

favorite outfits from the week include: kendi’s cape, marissa’s autumn outfit (love her coat!), liz’s sequin dress & julia’s purple sweater

 

a sneak peek of what’s coming next week: 

coats to keep you warm all season long

what to wear to disneyland

dainty bow earrings

quilted puffer vests

 

three things i’m looking forward to this weekend:

going to disneyland!

spending time with my in-laws

getting an extra hour of sleep (!)

 

and in case you missed it, here’s what appeared on the blog this week:

diff eyewear

eight cute sneakers to wear with everything

you guys, as you’re reading this, we’re en route to the happiest place on earth! it has literally been YEARS since i visited the magic kingdom and i can’t wait to feel like a kid again, this time with my husband in tow. i’ll be sharing more from our trip in instagram so if you don’t yet follow along, be sure to do so @shawnaleeann.

otherwise, don’t forget to set your clocks back one hour before you go to bed on saturday. it may start to get dark at 4:00 p.m., but at least we’ll get an extra hour of sleep!

have a great weekend.

xoxo
