Best gift for the ladies in your life

We all have that one lady on our shopping list that is tricky. The friend who seems to have everything, the mother in law you want to make a good impression on, the little ladies that you don’t want to have any more toys or the bridal party that you want to spoil. I have you covered this year with the most luxurious gift for any and all of those ladies. Plum Pretty Sugar is the ultimate gift for anyone looking to give something special.

Plum Pretty Sugar has created the most gorgeous feminine loungewear with the softest materials. I feel like a princess padding around my house in these stunning pieces. Having something pretty to slip into for the day really sets the tone. From robes to pajama short sets to bridesmaid dresses, Plum Pretty Sugar has a little treasure for everyone on your shopping list.

We are getting to the age with the girls where they are wanting to be big girls and be like mommy. When I saw these sweet mini versions of this lavender lace robe, I just about died. They felt so fancy in their special peices. These luxurious robes are perfect for matching sister sets or bridesmaid robes.

What topped my Christmas wish list

HOLIDAYkacee geoffroyComment

I sat down a couple weeks back after a lot of nagging from my husband for my Christmas wish list.  I just couldn't think of anything tangible that I wanted.  We typically don't exchange gifts, but this year decided it would be a fun change.  I thought and thought about all the little things that I wanted and just didn't come up with anything that I cared that much about.  It made me realize that what I really wanted for Christmas was time together.  Isn't that the most precious thing you can give another person, is your time?  

Erik and I both have very busy schedules. To be honest ,we more often times than not, feel like strangers passing in the night. One heading this direction and one running in that direction. School, homework, dance, work etc etc etc.  A law enforcement life sorta looks like that and definitely a family with young kids does.  I can't say that I have anything to complain about because if anything it has taught me to prioritize our time and really value what time we do have.  If that means, missing events or scheduling a date night weeks in advance, then that is what it is. We have luckily made it work but not without effort.  If you have followed my insta stories for some time you know how many times, I look over to see my romantic movie night partner dead asleep. 

So this Christmas, I asked for time.  I've asked for a long drive to a explore a new city.  I've asked for a night of playing cards by the fire.  Just slow, quality time to connect. Cheers to you and your loved ones getting that quiet time to focus on each other and create priceless memories.

We just got home last night from our cruise and are adjusting to land legs again.  We had the best time!!! It's our annual Disney cruise that we make into a "girls trip" with my mom, myself and the kidlets.  We got to fly first class this year which was a real treat!  Hello, ice-cream sundae and champagne!!!  Not to mention, I sat across from Henry Cavill for the 5 hour flight!  Not sad at all! I'm sure he is seeking a restraining order at the moment!  We typically stay in Miami the night before embarking the ship so so we have plenty of time.  We boarded Wednesday and partied our booties off until Sunday! I will do a full recap post on it next week!  

We are back to rainy, cozy weather today at home which this mama is soaking up!  I plan on lighting every candle in the house, firing up the fire place for the first time since in the new house and padding around in my robe all day!  I may even destroy a couple online sales popping up before Black Friday and Cyber Monday!  Speaking of sales, this jacket is on major sale right now!  I'm so glad I snatched it up in early fall because I've been wearing it on repeat.  I styled it here with a cozy camel colored sweater, skinny jeans and my favorite leather booties.   I also used it to top off a clean navy blue blouse and white culottes here.  It's so versatile and the heavy collar gives it such a chic look. 

I paired the coat today with a  winter look over a wine colored v-neck sweater and festive plaid skirt.  Both the sweater and skirt are on sale now too!!  This look would be perfect for Thanksgiving dinner or brunch this Christmas season!   

Stay tuned for lots of goodies being added to the SHOP tab at the top of my site as well as the rest of my specially curated gift guides rolling out this week! Never miss a beat and get updates early by subscribing to Life with Lipstick On  too!
