the cutest way to stay organized.

I stumbled across this today and really wanted to share it... its so cute. Not totally practical (printing one for each day. Eh.) but really cute! Maybe you could print a bunch, bind them and give them as a Christmas or Birthday gift?

first found it on pinterest, but here is her blog, and she has a link for this printable.

boots!

If I ...

1. didn't feel guilty when I bought myself things I don't need

and

2. had a lot of cash

I would have a closet filled with boots.

Here are the ones I would have bought on black friday or cyber monday.

But because I...

1. don't have rain-boots and it's going to start raining soon

and 

2. I don't have much cash

I used a gift card to buy these on sale at Nordstrom for $40!!

Yes please.

This months real simple is ah-mazing!

First of all I totally want this> [page 84]

But what I loved most about the November issue is that it was all about the holidays!
Yes I know we haven't even had Halloween yet... but I want it to be Christmas already. Don't worry I'm not forgetting the other holidays, I'm having a Halloween party this weekend, and deeply engrossed in Pinterest trying to create the perfect Thanksgiving board with my sister because we are on decor duty. Its just that I love love love Christmas, and I love to enjoy it for more than just 25 days =)
So go ahead and judge me. I'm listening to Christmas music on Pandora right now and don't feel any guilt whatsoever!!
