It’s difficult not to like Alexa Chung, try as I might, it’s actually impossible. She’s too “real” and too honest for me to really hold onto anything that would make me dislike her, though I don’t stop trying. I recently read her book IT and though it was a little boring, I’d read it again …

Last year I was obsessed with the Dolce & Gabbana Kids Holiday Collection so I had to go back this year to get a peek at the latest in ridiculously-expensive-but-adorably-cute-and-fabulous-designer-clothing-for-children, and it’s just as cute.

Hanging Stockings when You Don’t Have a Mantel
I love our fireplace. It’s big and covered from floor to ceiling in gray stone or some sort of irregular slate slabs, but it doesn’t have a mantel. It actually has a small hood with painted flowers on it and it’s original and I kind of love it because it’s so unique. We also have …

DIY Snowflake Tree Topper with Pipe Cleaners
Yes, ANOTHER PIPE CLEANER TREE TOPPER!! I obviously can’t get enough. They’re just too easy and too fabulous! While I do love this one, it’s a bit difficult to photograph and almost looks like it needs another, smaller, snowflake in front of it. But I like it. I used the same technique as my GEO …

DIY Filling Glass Heart Ornaments with Eucalyptus + Strung
Filling clear glass ornaments is nothing new, nor does it actually need a DIY tutorial.
