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!


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

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!


8. T O P | See, more fun texture! I am loving the details on this adorable top. It would be so darling to wear on Thanksgiving! Use my code EMILY15 to save 15% off at BohoBlu!

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great week! I'm looking forward to finding some fun this weekend. We don't have any plans nailed down but sometimes they are the very best kind of weekends to have. All I know for sure is that it will involve some good food and some relaxation for sure!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving! I already own and love three of this week's picks but the others are on my wish list for sure. I am so glad that it finally feels like fall around here so I can put my fall/winter wardrobe to work!

2. E A R R I N G S | I can't get enough dainty gold jewelry! I am loving this pair of earrings and the paperclip style. So cute!


3. W A F F L E  S W E A T E R | This cozy waffle sweater is on my wish list! I am all about oversized, cozy pieces to wear when it's cold outside. This sweater comes in tons of colors!


4. T E E | I just got this $10 tee and it's such a great closet basic. I love the soft ribbed material and I found the fit to be true to size. It also comes in many other great colors as well!


5. J E A N S | I don't want to sound dramatic but these are for real the best jeans of all time. The fit is incredible and they have those magic pockets that hold you in just right. They are so good! I wear my Madewell denim size in this, which is one size down from what I wear in other brands.


6. S N E A K E R S | I bought these sneakers last spring and they are still one of my favorite pairs of shoes to wear! They definitely are a year round kind of shoe. I love pairing them with everything from jeans to dresses to skirts to shorts to leggings... they go with everything! Fit is true to size.


7. T O T E | I love these canvas totes! I have a similar one that I bought last year and I still love it so much. It holds so much without being too bulky. A great quality bag!

Happy Wednesday! I hope your week is off to a great start! Monday was super busy but I was grateful for a much slower paced Tuesday, since I was off work for Election Day. I hope you took the time to make your voice heard and vote! I always look forward to voting during each election. I have voted every November since I was 18 years old!
