The weather here is still crisp and cool and fall-like, but here are a few of my winter favs:
Winter accessories
 |
| Fuzzy Earmuffs (AE) | Burberry Wristlet (came with Burb tote) | Leather/cashmere gloves (from Korea) |
 |
| Black booties from Luxury Rebel (LOVE the mauve pink soles!) Cardigan from The Limited | Double Strand Pearls |
I know people lean towards dark nails in the winter, but it's a pastel/gray palette for me!
 |
| Ballet Slippers by Essie | Lacey Lilac by Sally Hansen Fearless Fog by Sally Hansen | A True Romantic by Sephora OPI |
Picked up these two lacy tops during the post-Thanksgiving sales.. yes, they're the same top in winter cream and gray :P
 |
| Banana Republic |
Keeping the footsies warm around the house
 |
| Fuzzy bootie slippers from LOFT | Forever 21 socks (95 cents each!) |
I saw these lovely silver candle holders from Bath & Body Works during Black Friday shopping. They were already on sale, but my cousin suggested to look up additional promo coupons on my iPhone. I showed the cashier my iPhone and got an additional $10 off (yay), so I picked up a few candles + silver ornate candle holders, one for my apartment in Germany and one for my mother-in-law :)

The next week will be super busy with research papers for school, but I'll be flying to Cologne next Thursday and
f i n a l l y reunited with hubby after almost 4 months of separation. There were moments in the semester where it was so hard that I thought I would do ANYTHING to see him. I even looked up plane tickets, crossing my fingers that there would be some fluke cheap air ticket sale but of course, couldn't find any. :( But twelve more days until we're together again, I can't wait! :)It'll also be nice to celebrate Christmas in Cologne, which was #1 on CNN's list of great European Christmasmarkt cities. I'm looking forward to trying some German Gluhwein (warm spiced mulled wine) and visiting one of the seven Christmasmarkts in the city!

Love your blog Susan.
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures of your winter favs...so cosy!
ReplyDeleteI have no idea that you and your hubby are living in separate countries. Kudos to both of you for your faith and strength because long distance relationship of any kind isn't easy. Cologne in Christmas sounds absolutely magical.
