Insta Recap #6

Another Sunday, another Insta Recap! I wanted to get this up this morning, but it came down to run or blog, and I chose to run. The weather is so mild here, it is a crime not to get outside and get some miles in!

This week has been a busy one, especially the weekend. I don’t usually have this much of a social life, but the holiday season brings me out of my cave!

I wore this to church last Sunday. This leopard cape is a CAbi piece. I bought it at a trunk show I went to recently. I’ll be sharing more about this outfit in a dedicated post this week.

I wore this to meet a friend for lunch on Monday. I stopped at Target afterwards and got my first peppermint mocha latte of the season. YUM. The poncho is sold out, unfortunately.

This was a teaser for Monday’s post.

Outfit Details: Quilted Sheath Dress via LeTote | Dolce Vita ‘Ohanna’ Over the Knee Boot on sale for $199 (option $127) | My Stella & Dot Milana Tassel Necklace on sale for $50.36, Renegade Cluster Bracelet $59, and Metallic Double Clutch $89

And this was my teaser for Tuesday’s post. This blanket cardigan is going to be on repeat all winter. It’s the perfect cozy sweater with style value.

I took this selfie on Tuesday when I was working from home. Love this cardigan, and the fringe scarf is the perfect accessory. Plus, the slippers have built in orthotics!!! I know! They’re from Abeo. They sent them to me to review, and I LOVE them. They’re lined with shearling.

Outfit Details: Abeo Halifax Slippers $99 | similar black jeans $113 | fringe trim infinity scarf $20 | similar marled cardigan $54 | similar black tee $42

Another top down selfie. This is what I wore on Thursday to the salon. It’s always cold in there, so I used the scarf more as a wrap.

Outfit Details: red classic blanket scarf | Toms Leila Booties | similar crop skinnies

And yet another blog teaser — this one I posted on Thursday. The jury is still out on this sweater. I ordered a medium, and I’m anxious for it to come in so I can compare.

We finally got our live tree decorated this week. It sat in our garage in a bucket of water for 10 days until we got up the energy to decorate it. All of the ornaments on this tree have a sentimental meaning. Some are from my childhood, some Paul’s dad made, and others have been gifted over the years. I love this tree.

I got my nails done on Thursday. I went for this frosty blue, thinking it looked wintry, although all I can think about it when I look at it is Frozen or Cinderella. Ha!

I wore this easy outfit to work from home on Friday.

And this was a teaser for Friday’s post.

I took this picture on Friday afternoon before diving into this gluten-free red velvet cupcake. My favorite cupcake shop is closing, and I am sooooo sad.

On Friday night, my husband and I went to Punch Brothers concert at an opera hall in Delaware. I KNOW. Weird. They’re a progressive bluegrass group, and the front man is AMAZINGLY talented, but I don’t care for the sound of the group, plus it was late (they didn’t start till 9PM) and I was achy and sore from a super intense workout on Thursday, AND the venue was cold, so I was pretty miserable. But I still managed to get this selfie. Ha! Priorities, ya know.

Before the concert, we stopped into Sullivan’s Steakhouse for a bite to eat. It was delicious, but we were super rushed, so that was unfortunate.

This is a selfie I took on Saturday before leaving to meet up with ladies at church for a Bible study. It has been so mild here, it’s crazy! I didn’t even need a coat.

Outfit Details: fringe scarf in Oxblood $20 | chambray shirt $59 + 40% off with FIRSTLOOK | similar black jeans $113 | Converse Shoreline $49 | My Stella & Dot Artisan Stretch Bracelets $49 | similar handbag $449 (I got mine on a clearance sale)

This is my sweet puppy. She loves to sit on the back of the couch. I got these Snowman Pillow Covers at the Pottery Barn Outlet.

And this is what I wore out to dinner and to a Christmas concert last night.

Outfit Details: Relaxed Wool Turtleneck $79.99 + extra 50% off with code GETGIFTS | similar black jeans $113 | similar booties $99 | D Yurman bracelet $450 | similar handbag $495 (I got mine on a clearance sale. Watch for sales!)

I snapped this shot before we ate at Doc Magrograns in West Chester. We always enjoy dinner here, although we got kind of a crappy table last night. The food was still fantastic.

I took this picture this morning on my run. I paused RunKeeper so I could get the shot and not ruin my time. I’ve been a bit lax over the past few weeks, but with this new surge of mild weather, I’ve been going out almost every day. It’s such an incredible blessing to get a second chance at running.

Finally, this is what I wore to church this morning. It is 70 degrees right now. UNHEARD OF!!!!! I wanted to dress light, so I took the opportunity wear this plaid button-down from Stitch Fix. It’s the only plaid I own, and I got quite a few comments at church this morning. I was on nursery duty, so I dressed down a bit.

Outfit Details: plaid shirt via Stitch Fix | Paige Premium Edgemont Skinny Jeans in beige (old; bought on sale) | navy tank $22 + 30% off with code GETGIFTS | Felicia Flats in Classic Nude Leather $99 | chain link bracelet $450 | Starbucks To-Go Cup $19

I spent much of my weekend wrapping presents, and I took this picture this afternoon while I was taking a break with my new HoMedics foot massager and a St. Germaine Cranberry Cocktail. Yes, my presents are all color coordinated. Did you doubt me??? Ha!
