Gift Guide: For Her

Whether you're looking to shop for a mom, a friend or a significant other, this list is for you! I tried to do a rounded balance of gifts that make her feel pampered, and gifts that make her feel ready to take on the world! The spa tower and cat robe would be a perfect match, as well as the tote and notebook! Combinations are endless ;)

Gift Guide: Kids

I think kids may be my favorite people to buy for. Seriously. They have the most fun items on their lists and who doesn't love buying toys!? Maybe my opinion will change when I'm a parent, but for now...kids all the way! I had a ton of fun putting this guide together. Like way too much fun. I kind of want some of these for myself. Just making sure my inner kid stays alive, ya know? ;)

Bell Sleeve Turtleneck

This is seriously my new favorite outfit. I snagged the sweater, jeans and booties back during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and I am SO glad I did! I didn't know how much I would love the bell sleeve trend in a sweater until I tried it on. Such a fun little feature! And these jeans, guys. Most comfortable pair of jeans I own. Throw them all together, and I now have an outfit that I am going to wear far too often. Whoops.














sweater:  Leith // jeans:  Joe's Jeans // shoes: Dolce Vita ( similar,  similar) // purse:  Who What Wear x Target // hat: Jack + Lucy c/o ( similar) // sunglasses: Nich Boutique ( similar

What's your favorite way to do the bell sleeve trend?

Top 3 Pumpkin Cupcake Recipes

The season for baking with pumpkin is almost over, so I thought I'd share three of my favorite pumpkin cupcake recipes that I've made this fall! They're family, friend and work approved, so I know they're good ones. ;) They're all pretty easy to make, and would be perfect to whip up for any Thanksgiving festivities this coming week.



1. Pumpkin Molasses Cupcakes with Dulce De Leche Buttercream- seriously delicious and amazing! Sounds super fancy while still be easy to make.

2. Fudge Brownie Cupcakes with Pumpkin Cream Cheese Frosting- the perfect marriage of chocolate and pumpkin! 

3. Pumpkin Cheesecake Cupcakes- may be my favorite one! Instead of doing the sauce in the recipe, I whipped up some Salted Caramel Kahlua Whipped Cream for the top! (Super easy to do. Just put whipping cream in a mixer with a whisk attachment and whisk until soft peaks form. Then add powdered sugar and Salted Caramel Kahlua until you like the taste!)

Let me know if you try them out! Happy baking!

Gift Guide: Stocking Stuffers

Okay, tis the season for gift guides! I actually love putting these together every year. It's such a fun way to see what is out there, and to get a little shopping done while I'm at it ;) I'm starting off with a gift guide for stocking stuffers! Smaller presents, but still so much fun! Also the perfect list to use when you're part of a Secret Santa/White Elephant, and need some ideas on what to get.

Octer: Unique Shopping Experience

This post is sponsored by Octer. All opinions and views are my own, as usual.



I was recently introduced to the website  Octer, and I'm pretty much obsessed. This is how they describe themselves: "Octer is a unique marketplace of the biggest US stores where you can shop departments or shop by store. From fashion to gadgets we instantly compare thousands of brands and show you the nearest matches; so you'll always get the perfect style & price and discover products from stores you hadn’t considered before."

So, they put everything onto  one website, sort it into categories for you, and you can find exactly what you're looking for. It's basically an online mall, where you get to shop all the stores while staying in your comfies and drinking some wine. 
Can you imagine how easy Christmas shopping will be when everything you need to buy comes from one website? PLUS, (yes, there's more) they have an easy to use app, to help you shop on the go. They're all about ease over there, and I'm loving it. 



Their categories range from  fashion, to  home goods, and even to  food and drink
I'm definitely bookmarking the  beauty gift set page for gift giving and the  women's fashion page for myself ;)

Have you used Octer before? What do you love about it?
