Dear Santa..

I love scouring the blogs for holiday gift guides -- you can come across great finds for your loved ones without even standing in a shopping line. But what about for yourself? I recommend treating yourself to a little childhood fun and create a list for santa. Here's mine..

Fable Baby

I've been on the hunt for a few christmas gifts for my little babe and stumbled across Fable Baby & Nursery -- adorable, yes? Everything is super cute and coozy, the best way to dress your little one.

And we call her..

..little miss potato head. Because she has the most round face with an unlimited supply of expressions!

Press: Aisle Style

In September, I was honored to be featured in a regional magazine here in North Carolina. WNC Magazine profiled my work in their designer collections. I was thrilled with the outcome, it's always exciting to see your work in print. You can read the full article here.

Tree Trimming

The hub went up the mountain and cut down a beautiful tree for us this year -- a nordman fir. It's just the perfect shape! I pulled out our vintage glass ornaments to decorate, I'm afraid in the years to come I might not be able to use them with a child running around but for now I will enjoy them :) 

Here's my little decorating helper..

Free Shipping Goodness!

A new dress + free shipping = hooray! Head on over to the shop.

Brrr.

It's toboggan weather friends -- yes, that's what we call it here in the south. This one will do just fine in purple/lime!

Newborn Favorites

While I was pregnant, I lived by newborn essential lists and product reviews. There is SO much out there, I didn't want to waste money and I didn't want a bunch of stuff that went unused. Between baby showers gifts and online shopping, I aquired a good amount of baby items and there have definitely been a few essentials that have become my favorites..

Fisher-Price Newborn Rock 'n Play Sleeper - Love this thing...we scoot it all around the house and take it on overnight trips. It's portable and baby sure does find it to be super cozy.

Sckoon Booties - The ONLY thing that will stay on my babe's feet and they're also pretty cute.

Avent Soothie Pacifiers - It's a good pacifier, what else can I say.

Boppy - Comfy for breastfeeding, perfect for propping up the baby, and makes a good travel pillow for me :)

Boba Wrap - Baby wearing is one of my favorite things and once you can figure out how this enormous piece of fabric works..then you're in for a sweet experience. 

Evenflo Glass Bottles - I picked up a few of these as back-up because they were small and super cheap -- they turned out to be awesome because they are simple with few parts to clean!

Aden + Anais Swaddle Blankets - We use these to swaddle, as a nursing cover, as a blanket, etc... Super soft and a great size.

Motorola Video Monitor - An expensive item but so awesome. I love watching her wiggle around in her sleep.
