what i’m loving right now.

Hellooooo loves. Happy Christmas Eve Eve! :)

You may have already seen most of these things if you follow me on Instagram, but here’s a little wrap up and more details behind what I’m loving right now.

Making It Happen mug
I have this issue where I can’t go Christmas shopping without getting a little something for myself, so when I was in Urban Outfitters the other day I just had to snag this Making It Happen mug.

Since it’s an inspiration to have a productive day, I can consider it an investment in my future…right?

bright & bold lips.
I’ve always loved the idea of wearing bright and bold lip colors, but I usually end up going back to the safe zone of my go-to nudes and light pinks. This winter, though, I’ve finally been experimenting with some more fun lip shades. My favorites right now are orangey reds and deep plums.

Imoji app
Within the first 5 minute of discovering this app, I sent probably about 20 stickers to my friends. Each. There are some seriously hilarious stickers and you can even make your own! Sorry regular old Emojis, there’s a new cool kid in town.

New Girl
I know I know, New Girl is basically a classic at this point. BUT, I just fell in love with it all over again (and started from season 1 again). As much as I love getting hooked on new TV shows, sometimes life is too busy to make that investment. So I like to have some go-to’s to fall back on - ones that I know I can watch without having to get too into it, but still get a good laugh.

Not to mention I’m all sorts of smitten with Nick Miller. Schmidt has his moments too.

Beyond Sushi
I may be a meat eater, but there is no meat missed when it comes to Beyond Sushi’s insanely good vegan creations.

(I know I just posted about this last week, but it’s my blog and I can double-share what I want to ;))

I always get the exact same thing - their Sweet Tree roll + Nutty Buddy wrap. SO GOOD, you guys.

my imaginary Christmas home
Maybe I should be blaming my Christmas Pinterest board for the lack of Christmas spirit in my life this year. Because let’s be real…This will never happen in NYC on homegirl’s current income.

Skinny Hot Chocolate
BUT - thankfully their are much more inexpensive ways to bring Christmas into this closet-sized apartment of mine, and over the weekend it came in the form of Skinny Hot Chocolate, a la Dashing Dish. I made myself a little single serving version, and it was so good! Definitely hit the sweet tooth spot without feeling like I OD’ed on sugar.

    Gingerbread lattes and watching dolphins in the Atlantic with my sister - she finally got here for vacation and I couldn’t be happier! I can never get enough How I Met Your Mother; watch it all the time. Merry Christmas.

    right now I’m loving the soft and cozy glow of Christmas lights, a splash of Bailey’s in my coffee on the weekends, and watching The Taste and Master Chef Jr. I’m in a cooking competition phase at the moment, and I can’t get enough of these shows!

    Wow, I need that mug in my life! That’s so cute.
    Also, this is super random but I work at MAC and with your hair color, eye color I can tell you NEED to try Rebel if you like those deeper tones. It looks scary in the tube but it translates to this beautiful berry color, that will make your eyes pop so much! Again, random but I had to tell you haha
    Hope you have an amazing holiday!
