I might be biased because it’s my birthday month, but I love November. The post-Halloween/homey/cool weather/moody vibes of this time of year always feel nostalgic in the best way. My girls and I love to rewatch old movies, bake more than usual, cuddle up together in the evenings, make soup almost every night and wear matching pajamas (theirs and mine). This time of year just oozes cozy, but also the glamour of the holidays to come. My favorite juxtaposition! This forecast is really a mix of that–things I’m lounging around the house in, things I’m ordering for gifts and what I’m wearing to parties! Thankfully, we have nowhere near as much travel as we had over the past three months, just two quick work-related ones, otherwise, lots of time at home! Here’s a look at the month ahead…

What We’re Doing

• Celebrated my birthday at home this week with my girls.
• My collection with Hart launched this week and we kicked it off with a party at their store in NYC!
• We’re heading to Boston next weekend – more on that soon!
• I have another collection launching mid-month, and all I can say is that we have you covered for what to wear to a party this holiday season!
• We have family coming into town for Thanksgiving, I’m ordering a few fun crafts for the kids to do like these and these.
• I already started working on my holiday table and I love going non-traditional. I’m using this tablecloth in hot pink as my base and pulling out my colorful mix of Ginori plates. 
• Is it too early to start decorating for Christmas? We may or may not be pulling out our tree this weekend. I always get asked what faux tree we have & it’s this one–looks so real!
  

What I’m Wearing

• This new green velvet Wiggy Kit coat.
• Layering both my tree of life & perfume vesta case necklaces from my collab with Hart.
• You can find me at home in this dusty purple set – top & pants.
• I’ve been wearing these Alex Mill jeans on repeat and have found that a slimmer style (not skinny but slim) looks better in the fall with heavier coats/jackets. A baggier jean makes me look overwhelmed by fabric. I ordered this pair and this pair to try, too. 
• For day– these suede ankle boots, for night, these suede heeled ankle boots.
• This lip color in “among voices”  paired with this lip liner in “cinnamon.” 
• This under $15 grey sweatshirt.
• I wore this Etro dress to a fundraiser last weekend and love that it’s not too formal, so I’ll wear it again with some suede boots (like these on sale!)  
• This new Tanya Taylor skirt with a white tee for some daytime feathers.
  

What I’m Buying

• I’m having a big metallic moment right now, and I have two jackets I’m set on– this gold Magda one and this silver Liberowe one. 
• Kallymer x NAP launched this week and I bought this jacket and the matching skirt.
• This perfect pink top.
• Wow, the new Liberowe holiday collection made me sweat trying to narrow down a favorite to buy! I mean, this top, this embellished jacket, the new shearling jacket, the leather embroidered skirt!!!!
• I saw this woven leopard print bag when I was in Paris and regretted not buying it. It’s now out and available here. 
• A great slouchy black sweater.
  
• This embroidered Zara vest. 
• A chartreuse skirt. 
• The new Chan Luu collection dropped today!
• Ten gifts I’m buying for others this season:
  1. I have these slippers & can confirm they’re amazing.
  2. These tiger print cocktail napkins are great hostess gifts.
  3. These colorful gelato spoons make a cheerful stocking stuffer. 
  4. Highly recommend my favorite curling iron.
  5. An amazing hair oil that’s $$ but lasts a really long time.
  6. An exquisite notebook for the person who appreciates little details.
  7. Big fan of these socks (for both men & women).
  8. This leopard robe.
  9. These new paisley placemats.
  10. Our JB x Hart Tree of Life pendant.

What I’m Eyeing

• How perfect is this Liberowe leopard coat?
• Just for fun, here’s what’s on my dream birthday wishlist:
  • This watch
    
  • This coat
  • This Libertine coat 
  • One of Irene Neuwirth’s new Fruit Leathers (I tried this one on in NYC)
  • An Hermes Birkin in vert jade in shiny croc (a girl can dream!) 
• Brock is back! It’s been years since we’ve been able to shop the brand, but I’m thrilled to share you can pre-order some pieces here: love this blue skirt, this top, & this dress.
• Chloe resort just launched this week and I pre-ordered this dress & this jacket.
• This dress is such a striking color, debating on ordering for the holidays.
• Chanel Cruise preview launched this week! This is the mermaid collection that my girls and I watched 3x in a row in bed. I have the Chanel app downloaded on my phone & it’s best for getting a peek at what’s actually made from the runway– fyi!
