Shearling Style



Hello my friends! Holiday week has been busy with entertaining,
meet ups with old friends and business luncheons. When running out on these cold days and nights, I  love the feel of a warm shearling. I received a shearling jacket some time ago.
And amazingly it held up to the test of time!  Some jackets are reversible, so the suede can be worn on the inside as well! 
  

Shearling coats are made from processed lambskinsheepskin, or pelt. This "shearing" process creates a uniform depth of the wool fibers for a uniform feel and look. Shearling coats and garments are made from pelts by tanning them with the wool of uniform depth still on them. The result is a soft, natural fleece material that is lightweight and extremely comfortable. Shearling coats often contain insulated lining and are lightweight, warm, and stylish.The lighter the Shearling is, the higher quality it is considered to be.

Hope you are enjoying the count down to Christmas!

“My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others. 
Come to think of it, why do we have to wait for Christmas to do that?”

Holiday Gift Ideas 2014



Cheer Up  My loves, It's holiday season! Make life easy! Choosing your holiday gift list and buying gifts 
on-line is  a life saver! Many shops offer free shipping and it  saves on travel and stressful crowds and parking at the malls. 
Gift cards attached to a bottles of wine, or favorite bakery goodies are great for business gifts. Walk to  your local vendors for flowers, baked goods and wines!

Wrapping can be personalized. I like to stay with a theme.  Rough brown paper and white ribbon. Plaid papers.  All white paper with a color ribbon. For  small gifts I print my own paper.  My friend has blueprint  architectural paper. Creative personalization is up to you!  It's the thought that counts!

Here is a list of ideas,  click on the photo  or  store name and it brings you to the web site. Check back for additions to the list! 
Something I've been giving or years are   is pens  or rollerballs (I love to buy silver or black in either cross or another fine brand.
Mont Blanc is pricey! I found after many years my sons, relatives and friends  say they saved them or still use the pens. Another favorite is to send a Cheese cake from cheese factory web site! It's great for long distance dinner gifts to relatives.

Pottery Barn. Love the wine covers. And when there soft knitted throws go on sale I buy lots of them.
 West Elm  is another store that always has amazing gift books and throws that are perfect. Neiman Marcus date journals and gift department is high on my list.   
 Williams Sonoma is full of holiday gadgets. That is one store I love to visit and actually touch everything. On line now is 15% Discount.
Blue Tooth speakers are another great gift and not too expensive.
Try Best Buy for the sparkers and also exercise tracking bands from fit bit or jaw bones. 

Love to give new gadgets for the iPads and cell phones .   Little leather holders and travel items make smart gifts as well. Tumi has a classic selection of leather goods. As well as Coach

Local Flower and Gift shops have awesome Christmas or holiday trimmings and festive gifts. They ship anywhere!



HSN is the TV web site that has hundreds of
gift ideas.  Everything is shipped in time
for the holidays.

Winter Fashion



What to wear!  Winter is  a few weeks away and it  is already
so  brisk and cold!  Have you already worn your winter gear 
and possibly experimenting with your 2014 seasonal favorites!
I've seen touches of color in  classic coats , short furs with 
layers! Scarves long sweaters, leather, suedes and of course still warm as toast is the puffer jacket!  I've become attached  to fingerless gloves and keep them on at my computer.   Trade off between long scarves and just neck warmers!   Not feeling the overly bulky just yet.  However, when the temperature drops, fashion chic goes out the window!

Enjoy the day and welcome  in festive December!
