First Snow

Where I live, we have cold winters. Not Chicago cold, but still. Snow is not a stranger, and growing up, my cousin and I would always be delighted to have fresh snow for her November birthday. So far this winter, we've had nada!

Last month I had my mother/personal stylist, put me on her calendar for January 8th to do my color. How fun is it that on the morning of the 8th that I got to wake up to snow?! It goes perfectly with my new hair color and red lips, don't you think? Plus I got to have fun putting my Hunters to their waterproof test!

Hot Chocolate

In all this winter chill, I thought I deserved a treat. As much as I love calorie loaded treats, I'm trying to put those days behind me.

After enjoying a couple months of a deep sultry red color, I was ready to feel like me again. And what goes better with a cold winter day then some hot chocolate?!  After all, changing your hair is a treat that is always calorie free ;)

Keeping Cozy

I'm not a fan of cold. But alas, it's winter. And since winter will be here a couple more months, I'm doing my best to embrace what the season has to offer. 

Yesterday, my husband and I took our girls ice skating at a local outdoor rink. In attempt to stay warm and remain stylish, I chose layers that wouldn't give me too much bulk. To top it off, I wore my Hunters with their Welly inserts, to keep me extra cozy from point A to B. Like it?

How do you stay bundled without looking like a frump?

Royals

When we look back at 2013, we see adventures had, goals reached, and new dreams to set our eyes toward. Here's to 2014! May we dream bigger, reach higher, and remain ever fancy!

We're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
