Currently Loving .212

Happy Friday, y'all! I hope you've had a great week! Honestly, this has been a really weird week over here. My oldest daughter got sick (thankfully she tested negative to all of the things) and I've been working from home. I'm grateful to have been able to be home with her this week! Hopefully she will be feeling much better by this weekend so that we can finally get out of the house. I love being at home but I am so ready to venture out into the world again!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving! I have been so focused on Christmas shopping that I really haven't been doing any looking or purchasing besides putting together these weekly roundups. But, I think most of my shopping is finally complete and all of my gifts are here (or are in transits, scheduled to be here just in time). Is your holiday shopping complete?!

4. H E A D B A N D | I literally wear one of these J. Crew headbands every single day! My ten old year is right there with me because they stylishly and comfortably keep your hair out of your face all day long. I have many colors and this pink is one of my favorites!


5. P U L L O V E R | Who doesn't love a cozy leggings friendly pullover this time of year?! I bought this one last month in the oatmeal color and I am considering getting the gray one too. I am typically not a buy this in every color kind of shopper but I might have to make an exception when it comes to this one! It runs oversized but I stayed with my true size for a comfy fit.


6. B O O T S | How beautiful are these boots?! I am loving the style and the subtle leopard print. These are out of stock in my size but I think I have to have them as soon as they restock!


7. T O P | I love this gorgeous top! I bought a super similar one last year and I still love it so much. The metallic details make it so perfect for the holiday season.

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week! Yesterday morning I went to a Christmas breakfast with the church staff and the food was incredible. I am still thinking of the steak and eggs they made for us! I honestly don't think I have ever had that for breakfast before and now it's all I ever want to eat for breakfast again. It was just so good!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly round of what I'm Currently Loving! I'm currently living in jeans, sneakers, and cozy layers. You will want to check out the jeans from this week's roundup. They are my favorite pair of jeans that I own!

Size down one size in them and only wash them when necessary because they break in so nicely and hold their shape!


6. S K I R T | This subtle black leopard print is so pretty! Dress this skirt up with heels or down with sneakers. There's so many outfit possibilities!

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week! It's officially Christmas season and I'm so excited for it. This year definitely needs all of the joy that the holiday season can bring! Last year, I did an wine advent calendar from Aldi but I wasn't able to get my hands on that one this year. None of the stores near me was carrying that one so I hunted down a different one. I got the last wine advent calendar at Target and I am enjoying trying out some new wines. Hopefully I will have time to do a little wine tasting over on Instagram stories this weekend. Those are always so much fun to do!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving. If you are new here, every Friday I share eight items that I am loving, hoping to add to my closet, or I already own! I love sharing things that I have already as well so that I can give you a genuine review of the item. This week's picks include several things that I already own and love!


Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!

1. C A R D I G A N | It's cardigan season! I am loving the cozy fabric of this one and the fun buttons. I can't wait to style this one! I will definitely be wearing it with jeans and a cozy boots. You can save 15% off your order at BohoBlu using my code EMILY15!


2. E A R R I N G S | I'm loving these gorgeous earrings! My oldest daughter has claimed my go-to pair of Madewell earrings so I think I need a new pair to replace those. I love the style of these!


3. P U L L O V E R | I am patiently waiting on this adorable pullover to land in my mailbox! How cute is this print?! I added it to my cart as a early Christmas gift to myself. I love it!


4. J E A N S | I already own and absolutely love these jeans! I wear them at least twice a week! They have just enough stretch to make them comfortable yet they hold you in. They are magical! Size down one size (from your non-Madewell denim size) for the very best fit. They are on major sale, too!

5. B O O T S | These boots came in this week from my Black Friday purchases and I don't like to use the word obsessed so instead I'll say that I really really really like them a lot! I will get so much use out of this comfy style this cold weather season and for years to come. Fit is true to size.


6. C O A T | I also got this faux fur coat and I am loving the vintage inspired style! I have been hunting for something like this and was so excited when I found it. It's a great coat to make your outfit feel a little more fancy! It's so soft and even better in person!


7. W A L L E T | I have this little wallet in a different print from awhile back and it's the only wallet I have used since I got it. I love how it fits into my small bags but still holds everything I need. I also added a key fob and keep my car key on it. It's the perfect little wallet!


8. S W E A T E R | Are y'all loving sweater season as much as me?! I can't get enough cozy pieces! I am loving this cute sweater to stay warm in style. You can save 15% off your order at BohoBlu using my code EMILY15!

Happy Friday! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving! We did and I think I'm still full from yesterday. So much delicious food! We had our family plus my mom, oldest brother, and my two nephews over. I definitely made way too much food but I wanted a little of everything. Mac and cheese was the first thing I dug into on my plate. It's always my favorite!

Today, I'm rounding up my weekly picks that I'm Currently Loving but instead of just eight picks, this week I'm sharing sixteen of my current favorite items! Many of this items would make such great gifts (for someone else or yourself) and almost everything is on sale, too!

Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!


1. J E A N S | I got this pair of jeans about a month ago and I wear them a couple times a week. The fit is incredibly flattering and they have magic pockets. My favorite jeans!

2. H E A D B A N D | Another roundup, another headband! I have been wearing a headband pretty much nonstop for the past two years. I love how they accessorize a look and they are functional for keeping your hair out of your face. Style and function! I love the color of this one!

3. F L A N N E L | I got this soft flannel shirt for my birthday and I am loving the colors! It's kind of hard to tell online but the plaid is taupe and bright. It's so cute! I sized up for a extra relaxed fit.

4. S N E A K E R S | These are 100% the most comfortable sneakers that I have ever owned! I bought them a few years ago to wear at Disney and they have been my go-to sneakers ever since. They fit true to size and go with everything!

5. C O I N  P U R S E | I also got this fun coin purse for my birthday and it's such a great addition to my Madewell bag collection. It would also make a great gift for a leather bag lover!

6. C O F F E E  P R E S S | Speaking of gifts, if you have a coffee fanatic on your shopping list, grab one of this cute coffee presses for them! It's only $15, great quality, and it's also super cute.

7. S L I P P E R S | I got this slippers in the mail this week and they have been on my feet at home ever since. My slippers were in serious need of an upgrade and I'm so glad I got these. I even wore them all Thanksgiving Day in the kitchen to cook!

8. S W E A T E R | I own and love this sweater! It can be worn buttoned up like a sweater or opened up like a cardigan. It's such a versatile piece and the quality is amazing! I sized up one size for the best fit and a little of a more relaxed look.


9. B A G | This is my favorite Madewell bag! If are considered your first Madewell bag purchase, I would always recommend this one. The size is great and I love how versatile it is!

10. T O P | I just got this cozy top and the fabric is so soft. It's also leggings friendly! What's not to love about that?!

11. L E G G I N G S | And, if you are in need of great leggings, I love this brand from Amazon. They are affordable and they fit so well. I wear them pretty much daily for my workouts and I find the fit to be true to size.

12. P E R F U M E | I've never been a huge perfume fan until I found this one a few years ago. Buying someone perfume as a gift can be super tricky but I honestly don't think you can go wrong with this one. The scent is light, fresh, and it just smells really really good. It's such a hard smell to describe but it's my absolute favorite. I always grab a bottle when it's on sale!

13. B O O T S | How cute are these boots?! A great pair of cognac leather ankle boots are worth investing in because you will get so much wear out of them. I got a super similar pair of boots last fall and they are my go-to shoe when it's cool outside. Perfect for jeans, leggings, dresses, and skirts!

14. B A G  S T R A P | If you get a medium transport tote, be sure to add a fun bag strap to your Christmas list. These bag straps are such a fun way to make your bag feel brand new!

15. S H I R T | I wore this shirt on my birthday and it's such a great fabric. I love the style, the fit, and the adorable, subtle polka dots! I can't wait to wear it again! As far as sizing goes, I found it to run small so I would definitely size up one size for the best fit.

16. C O F F E E  M U G | My last pick is another great gift idea. I recently purchased this mug and it makes my morning coffee even better. Coffee just tastes better in a pretty mug!

Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you have a great weekend!

Happy Friday! I hope you have had a great week! This has been a busy week with work and virtual learning so I am definitely looking forward to closing the laptop this weekend. We don't really have any plans and I am completely okay with that. I can't wait to relax!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving! There are lots of great cold weather options in this week's roundup because it suddenly got super chilly where I live! We went from highs in the 70s to highs in the low 50s. I have been living in cozy layers!

Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!

1. J A C K E T | I just got this jacket and it's gorgeous! I couldn't wait to wear it so I threw it on over my workout clothes to take my daughter to school. It's great for dressing up or down! I would personally size up one size for the best fit. Use my code EMILY15 to save 15% off at BohoBlu!


2. B A G | I am having to use self control to not add this bag to my cart immediately! I love my transport tote and this one comes in the most perfect animal print. It's so cute!



3. S N E A K E R S | My "wearing out" sneakers are in need of an upgrade. The ones I wear with my athleisure outfits are at least four years old and totally worn out. I am loving the simplicity of this black and white pair of Nikes!



4. H E A D B A N D | I ordered this cozy headband this week because it's currently on sale for less than $13! It's such a cute way to stay warm! I am thinking about also ordering these headbands for my daughters to put in their stockings for Christmas. It would make a great gift!


5. N E C K L A C E | I already own and love this necklace! I love the dainty style and it goes with everything. I think I have worn it every single day since I got it!


6. P U F F E R | I needed a new warm jacket for the season and this is the one I ended up ordering. It's made out of recycle polyester and it folds up into a travel pillow! I found that it runs just a little small so I would recommend ordering a size up for the best fit, especially for layering.


7. J E A N S | One of the things that I get asked about the most is Madewell denim and which pair I would recommend. My most favorite style is the Perfect Vintage! They are high rise and such a comfortable alternative to skinny jeans. I used to only buy skinny jeans but now this fit is my favorite because they are just so flattering! Size down one size from your regular denim size. Also for length reference, I'm 5'5" and the regular length is perfect for me in this style.


8. D R E S S | How cute is this dress?! I am loving the fun pattern and the swingy fit! This dress would be so cute styled with over the knee boots and a denim jacket. You can use my code EMILY15 to save 15% off at BohoBlu!

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week! I was able to have a girls day with my daughters this week and we had so much fun going to a few of our favorite places. Besides wearing masks, it kind of felt like old times! We got lunch from Chipotle, treats from Starbucks, and wandered around Target for an excessive amount of time. It was so fun! My 35th birthday is tomorrow and I am so excited to celebrate by having an overnight staycation with my husband in Winston-Salem. It will be great way to begin the second half of my 30s!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving! This week is all about neutrals in fun prints and textures! I feel like so many of these pieces are great neutral holiday pieces that you can wear for the upcoming holiday season.


Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!

1. S W E A T E R | How fun is the texture of this sweater?! I am loving the little pom poms! This is such a cozy sweater that would be great for Thanksgiving lunch or Christmas Day... or really any day! It's so cute! Use my code EMILY15 to save 15% off at BohoBlu!


2. B A G | This bag is giving me vintage vibes and I am loving it! It totally looks like something I saw my grandma carrying when I was little and that makes me love it even more. It's also super budget friendly! I love it!


3. J E A N S | I shared about my love for the vintage style of jeans and this week, I have to share this faded black pair. They are on my personal wish list! This style is so super flattering and I love this wash for fall and winter. Size down one size from your non-Madewell denim size for the best fit.


4. S H I R T | I treated myself to this gorgeous shirt as a birthday gift to myself! I saw it in store a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't stop thinking about it. I just love the subtle polka dots and the style so much! I sized up one size for the most comfortable fit.


5. R I N G | I usually wear pretty simple jewelry but I am really loving this statement ring. I feel like it makes a subtle statement, if that makes sense. It's on my wish list!


6. S K I R T | I bought this skirt recently and I absolutely love it! It's so comfortable and can be dressed up or down. Pair it with sneakers for daily errands or heels for a holiday party. This skirt is such a versatile piece! It also fits true to size.


7. H E A D B A N D | Y'all know I am a big fan of headbands... I wear one almost everyday and this gold one immediately caught my eye. It's so fun for the holidays!
