For all of you traveling this holiday season... good luck!! It can get so hectic at airports this time of year, so here are my 5 tips to help ease your experience to make it fun rather than something you're not looking forward to. Do you always travel for the holidays? Let me know your favorite tips in the comments!

It's not every year, but I'm definitely starting to try to create an annual tradition of hosting a Holiday Brunch! December can become so busy, so I find that one of the few times you can get everyone together on a weekend is to host a brunch, rather than a dinner or cocktail party. Yesterday I hosted a Secret Santa filled with food, games, presents and laughter! 

Each Christmas morning my family pours a mimosa and opens stockings. Getting little, fun, and useful items is the best way to kick off Christmas morning! Getting a few gifts to add into someone's stocking can bring an extra smile to their face. Especially if you won't spend the morning with someone you love, sneaking in a few gifts to their stocking would be a fun surprise!

So many of you loved this mustard oversized chenille sweater from Zara that I recently posted on my Instagram! Here I've paired it with black denim and studded flats from Forever 21 (similar here). This has been my go-to sweater this Fall since it's so comfortable and is great for lounging, work, out to drinks, or really anything!

As I'm kicking off the holiday season, it's important to recognize and appreciate all that I'm afforded. I have such a loving family, amazingly close group of friends, a fun, lively job, warm home, and the list goes on....

We all have them... the friend who loves to go to barre or spin, eat smoothie bowls and lives off of kale. I'm definitely guilty of being that friend sometimes! The holidays can get overwhelmingly unhealthy, so root your friend, sibling, or mom on through a health-inspired gift to keep them on the right track! Keep scrolling for items and ideas to delight them under the tree!

It's that time of year again! The holidays are upon us, meaning countless parties, events and occasions to celebrate with friends and family. This time of year can be expensive, so I've brought together my favorite Seattle fashion bloggers to share their tips for how to stay stylish this season without spending a ton of money! 

When I think of bundling up for Fall, I think of velvet. The ultimate luxury fabric that instantly elevates any look! Velvet pieces have been everywhere lately, so I wanted to show you how I've been styling these Navy Velvet Booties from Steve Madden! 

My Mom always hosts Thanksgiving, when extended family comes over for a hearty meal filled with laughter, wine, and sometimes games. The day itself if always so fun and I typically take the Friday after Thanksgiving off for some R&R (and shopping, let's be real). 

When I posted this look to Instagram, there was so much love for this coat! Wool coats are such a classic staple for Fall and Winter, but can honestly be hard here in Seattle since we only get brief windows of rain-free days to wear them.

I'm completely obsessed with this look! I love the toughness of a leather jacket, but it can sometimes be hard to wear as daytime outerwear without looking too bold. In this post, I've paired a faux-leather jacket from Topshop with a feminine white shift dress from Zara. Together it's the perfect combo of feminine and tough!

Ahh, one of my favorite topics! Pilates! As you likely know, Pilates is one of my favorite ways to exercise (check out my other favorites here and spin!) and I particularly love reformer Pilates since it's a bit less grueling, is fun to lie down, and always challenges a new muscle.

Reformer Pilates uses a "carriage" aka machine with springs on it to work your body against tension, targeting major muscle groups including legs, glutes, arms and core. The machine can make classes seem intimidating, but once you've taken your first class, it all makes a lot more sense! 

It's here! Twice a year Seattle Restaurant Week takes over the food scene to bring us some of the best meals in Seattle for only $33/dinner! It's an unofficial holiday among my family, as we always pick places to try or our tried and true favorites to visit.

For my Dad's birthday, we headed to Woodinville to wine taste! Woodinville is about 30 minutes North-East of Seattle with tons of wineries and tasting rooms! With the autumn leaves changing color, it was the perfect time to visit where we could still enjoy the brisk air and sit outside.

Shopping has always been a hobby of mine! Growing up, I would love to go to Nordstrom or even thrift stores to scour the racks to find new, cute pieces. While shopping is fun, it can definitely get expensive! 

I went to U-Vill recently and had to stop in at H&M. They had so many perfect (and inexpensive) pieces for Fall, I had to do a roundup for you! I found the above sweater for only $14! You cannot beat that when it comes to a Fall sweater!

The ruffles of Spring and Summer have continued into Fall! Statement sleeves make a perfect addition to your Fall wardrobe. This striped button down from Forever 21 was a great find in New York and pairs well with so many other staples. You know my love of stripes, so this piece is a perfect, more-Fall version, with amazing sleeves! 

A little black dress never goes out of style, but a time for it to really take center stage is in the Fall! When the weather is cooling down, a long-sleeved black dress like this one from See by Chloe, pairs perfectly with a bold lip and black leather booties. Enjoy this look book to find your outfit inspiration!

Subscription boxes may have passed the peak of their craze, but I loved them to find new products, try new trends and even get some of my favorite products in travel size. I've subscribed to Birchbox since probably 2014 and Sephora Play! since it first came out. Many of the products are honestly just sitting in my drawers, but some of them are new holy grail products that have introduced themselves into my daily skincare and makeup routines. Instead of committing to years of product exploration, here are all of the best finds! 

I just got off the plane from New York, and all I can think about are the pieces I saw on the show go-ers and throughout the streets of New York. The weather was still great, but outfits moved into a Fall wardrobe. Here are the top 10 trends I noticed that will help set you up for a stylish new season!
