December 13th, 2017 Riding into this holiday season like... TA-DA!  I love the idea of riding my bicycle to a holiday gathering with a basket overflowing with holiday greenery, bubbles, sweet treats and packages.  While I'd also really LOVE a horse drawn sleigh, this Southern California version of holiday transportation is pretty dreamy!   Where are you headed?  I'm here for the holidays for the first time.  I'll be missing the family and flurries of the midwest, but I'm excited to stay home, and cozy up by the sea with family and friends.  Here's to traditions: new and old! xoxo, Cecelia #outfitoftheweek This sweater is the softest and sweetest of them all with a touch of cashmere to feel that little bit of luxury that makes it your go-to each morning.

Hello December!  

December 7, 2016

Let the giving and receiving begin! I am super excited to have the opportunity to host a Shopping Event this Sunday and hope you will join me for discounts and donuts!I'm not often in on the weekend and this is a special opportunity to get to offer gifting guidance to many of you who love your Sunday shopping at vocabulary.  Two things to keep in mind this season, give only what you love to offer, and open up to receive that which someone shares with you, with gratitude.  "Mic Drop", ha ha, as my husband has been saying as he perfects his opening and closing statements to an upcoming interview:)"Period. The End". as I like to say.Gratitude allows us to say thank you for the act of giving that has been bestowed upon us, not the gift itself, although sometimes extra kisses and squeezes are inspired by all the joy you feel when you read a special note or open a special package.  I call that sprinkles on top of an already lovely Sundae. Giving what you love to give means that the gift is true and you will feel good about giving it, before during and after. #Win #Win #WinOpen up your hearts, and your minds will follow, and don't over think this. I give you permission to Give and Receive with Peace and Ease this Holiday Season, and then celebrate your openness and all the blessings that exist in your treasured life.

Make a Statement!

December 14th, 2016

Happy Holidays!  I hope your December is off to a festive start with gifting, giving, and grateful receiving.  I made Christmas Cookies yesterday and listened to music while doing so.  I tear up over so many of the songs!  It's a sentimental thing, I guess, to hear beautiful voices sing about joy, and what is at the heart of so much of our life experience, love!So my frosting was a little extra salty... and perfectly delicious! lolThis outfit of the week is both salty AND sweet!  Power dress by day, Holiday Party by night, you are welcome:) Black and Gold are often my go-to dynamic duo for the month of December.  Dark red nails, bright lipstick and a great statement accessory.  Done, Let's Party!

xoxo, Cecelia
