Gift Guide: For the Jewelry Lover

Christmas is just one month away! We put up our Christmas tree yesterday and I've been enjoying peppermint mocha's since the red cups (read: Starbucks) made their debut. This is my favourite time of year, for so many reasons.

I put together a little gift guide ('tis the season!) for my fellow jewelry lovers so that you can share your delight for glitz and glam with your loved ones. Or maybe, just maybe, if you pass this shiny list onto them, you might receive a little sparkle under the tree.

One Look, Three Ways: Convertible Jacket

This convertible jacket by Tart Collections is perfect for damp, fall weather. I wore mine yesterday while getting coffee in the rain with my sweet little family. The fabric is perfect for drizzly, autumnal weather. The best part? The sleeves and hood zip off for an instant style change. Puffy vests are so in style this season.

Fall Favourites

Autumn is my favourite season, which makes this post my favourite of the favourites! Here are my favourite things from the 2013 fall season.



Rings
I love layering and stacking my rings. I am completely head over heals with black stones at the moment and love how my two Jennie Kwon rings go so well together. One is onyx, the other, black diamonds.

Purple nail polish
This nail polish didn't chip for the better of a week. That never happens for me. Between insane amounts of typing and caring for a 5 month old, this is a feat unto itself. I also love that this is a true purple, swaying from the typical dark burgundy-near-black hue that permeates the season. Sally Hanson Complete Salon Manicure in Trouble Maker.

The Walking Dead

This cleanser feels rich, moisturizing, and totally indulgent. My skin loves it.  Did I mention it's an exfoliating oil? The perfect one-two punch for cooler temps.

Pumpkin muffins
In the past two months, I have made these muffins more times than I care to admit.  I adapted this Kraft pumpkin loaf recipe for muffins. I left out the cream cheese and added chocolate chips. Heaven.

Succulents


Sweater dresses
I am loving this sweater dress from Tart Collections for fall. It's so easy to throw on and instantly looks polished and thought-out. Not to mention, the two tone side panels are totally slimming.
