If you haven’t heard of minted, you’ve probably been living under a rock. I’ve been getting my stationary and holiday cards there for years and I love them. For the month of December they’re working with Every Mother Counts, a campaign founded by Christy Turlington Burns to increase education and support for maternal mortality reduction. If you’re anything like me, you have no shortage of friends having babies and these are some of the cutest prints I’ve seen. Fifty percent of all proceeds for the month of December will go towards the project so it’s like 100% guilt-free shopping (Mindy, if you’re reading this you’re getting one for Blakelie!).

Also, if you’re in need of any last-minute gifts for those a bit harder to shop for you should hop by their gift ideas. I cannot recommend the stationery enough and they have it in custom shapes with the prettiest scalloped edges!

Tis the season for gift guides, more desserts than usual and collages of shit that bloggers want. Not being a total conformist, I opted out of gift guides mostly because I’m a huge fan of gift cards and not having to wrap a thing. That could be because I’m lazy or because I can’t be inconvenienced. Either way, none of the recipients are complaining so shut it.
I’ve put together an old-fashioned list of some ish that I would like under my “tree” or in my living room when I get home at night because that’s where the packages magically appear.
1. Hat. Self-explanatory, I think. It get’s cold here and I’d like to avoid frostbite.
2. The most amazing boots that have ever been made. Ever. I’m thinking about egg donation to buy these guys.
3. What isn’t to love about this bag? Structured, check! Classic, you betcha.
4. A fun sweater.
5. This has a wolf on it. I rest my case.
6. A pretty top for layering.
What’s on your list?

If you know me, it’s not a surprise that I love fall, if for nothing else than the excessive layering. I love to layer. I also love to be super comfortable. Leggings as pants is my jam. Please note that I do not, in any way condone the phenomenon known as “camel toe” I think it deserves a real kick in the pants (ha!).
What is your go-to look for fall?

Walking in the park (Central Park to be exact) is one of my favorite things to do especially when it is beautiful outside. You never know what you’re going to stumble upon.
Sunday was one of those gorgeous days that was just begging for a walk in the park. And who am I to tell Sunday no? Obviously, I obliged.
When we stumbled upon these hearts, all at different parts of the same off-beaten path, I had to snap a few photos. Sometimes all we need is a sweet reminder that love is all we need.
Happy Wednesday, friends!
