Our Obsessions this Week: 1.25.15

Feed that Wanderlust, baby


Now is the time to map out your travel plans for 2015-- whether its stateside or abroad, get out there and see the world this year! Take advantage of these dropping oil prices, pack an overnighter and just go. You will never regret an adventure taken, just the ones you missed.

DODOCASES... Um, can we just stop and ADORE the cutest cover ups for Ipads since the snuggie? They're sleek and such an awesome way to protect your smartaccessories while on the go.


Less is More


Minimalistic jewelry like simple, dainty rings, necklaces, bracelets, body chains and more have been all over our radars recently. Seen everywhere from the bodies of popular bloggers like the The Little Magpie and Kenzas to the shelves of our favorite fast-fashion retailers like Zara, H&M and Forever 21 and even high-end department stores like Bloomingdales and Barneys, it’s hard not to fall in love with this trend. Read more: http://stylecaster.com/minimalist-jewelry-trend/#ixzz3Ptdy6EOs

It's La La Lemon Season!!

Meyer Lemons are our FAVE lemon and quite possibly the new kale. Asking why? They're well known for cleansing and detoxification purposes, but also are insanely delicious in sweet and savory dishes! Lemon almond tart sound yum? How about pasta with kale and lemon garlic confit? Intrigued?? We thought you'd be... Sneak a peek at our cooking section for deets!


Arricaderci, Ombre-- Bon Jour, Ecaille!

While ultra vibrant hair and dramatic ombre ruled 2014, we’re starting to see a shift in the follicle forecast. As we step into the new year we’re beginning to see a more natural trend attached to those tresses. The leading force toward this minimal vibe: balayage, increasingly popular highlights that aim to mimic those sunkissed highlights you got as a kid. And now, piggybacking off balayage, we’re seeing another similar, albeit darker, technique that we’re sure is about to go mane-stream over the course of 2015: introducing ecaille (AKA “tortoiseshell” in French).



Seeing RED

Cant love this long red skirt trend enough! So so chic for your next date night or dinner party.

Potentially Awkward: What to do when you're pregnant and your best friend isn't

Our gal over at Pregnant Chicken has some great advice for this easy fumble (superbowl pun intended) But maybe lets start with, hmm..being f*ing normal? Also, it is never, ever okay to suggest a sperm donor as an option to someone who hasn't even expressed a desire to have a child. Now is not the time to apply peer pressure *cough*




Hooray for January! We'll be making valentines before you know it!

XOXO,
M&M
