If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you noticed that the background to my photos was a little different. I was in NYC and attended the  Joe Fresh Winter Magic event at 5th Ave flagship store. It was so much fun. Plus I met some cool bloggers, chatted with Blair of Alantic-Pacific and Julia of Gal Meets Glam. More pictures to come soon!
My sister and I had a whole day together, exploring the city, getting lost and eating out. Then next day we explored the MAT and did some window shopping at Bloomingdale's. The trip was absolutely awesome and made this holiday season that much more memorable! NYC is so cool to visit (not live in. too hectic.) but winter weather is brutal so we had to bundle up. Today I'm sharing with you the NYC street style, hop you like it.
Hope you had a great weekend! 
 Thank you for stopping by!

Christmas Gift Guide {FOR HIM}



Power Tools/Hand Tools: 1, 2, 3
Men like working with their hands, and it doesn't matter if he's handy or not, a power tool will make him feel manly. Maybe he will even finish that project you were asking him about. 

Shaving Accessories: 4, 5, 6
There is nothing worse than getting an awful shave and bleeding afterwards. My husband has a very sensitive skin so getting the shave right is very important part of his routine. Right kind of tools make that task a lot easier.

A watch: 7, 8, 9
Men don't wear accessories and the only one they do should stand out in the crowd. Surprise him with a great looking watch he would never buy for himself. 

Electronics: 10, 11, 12 
What guy doesn't like to play with these fun (grown-up) toys?





This time of year is especially difficult for us ladies, who are trying to get a gift for the men in their lives. I think, girls are easier to get gifts for - a handbag, spa certificates, perfume, shoes, sunglasses and jewelry are all acceptable choices. We like to feel special and although sometimes we are picky, there are tons of options. 
Men on the other hand, have very limited selection of gifts. So here is a gift guide, brought to you by the 'down-to-earth' dude. I asked my husband to name a few things he would love to get for Christmas and this is what I got. And he also said absolutely no shirt and tie under the Christmas tree. Got it sir.
I hope you are having a great time this holiday season and enjoying time with family.
Thank you for stopping by!

Holiday Cheer






sweater: J.Crew
skirt: vintage (similar 1, 23)
pumps: Jessica Simpson
belt: Target (similar)
watch: Fossil
Hello ladies! This Christmas season I've been incredibly cheerful with my dress - reds and sparkles all the way. I hope you are enjoying this advent more than any other, because there's always something to be thankful for. It's amazing how fast we forget how much we have and focus on what we want (i.e. don't have) especially during holidays. So instead of making more holiday gift guides than you can imagine, I've come up with some thoughtful gifts to share for your family and friends. Check back soon for the details!

Thanks for reading! 

xo, Anna
