I vote we cancel all Monday's

I vote we cancel all Monday's and make it a three day weekend, but then Tuesday would become the new Monday lol. Fighting a cold which won, started last week and was battling it good till both my girls had it, now been miserable for two days. Woke up all night, have had barely 2-3 hours of straight sleep for two nights, running a fever on and off all day, stuffy then runny nose, basically no fun at all. Top it all off the kids are sick, my younger daughter is pretty much at the end of it just has a little congestion and has been getting mid day headaches from sniffling or sinus pressure. My oldest missed school today and I'm sure she had a great time with no one home to bother her, from what I saw looked like she slept all day. I wish that was me but I did have Sunday which was pretty much sleeping and bumming around. 

My makeup today was light, same eyeliner pencil in purple by NYX, black Kat Von D tattoo liner, Too Faced Better then Sex black mascara, MAC loose powder blush in Melba, Laura Mercier loose powder, MAC highlighter to brighten under my eyes, Bareminerals Smokey eye kit with double ended brush (one of my fave kits) contains Shades: Soul (light cream linen), Celestine (light pewter), Graphite Eye color (deep coal), and my lips are Lancôme Juicy tubes in tickled pink. Got addicted to those Lancôme Juicy tubes in my early twenties when I had multiple friends working at Macy's at the Lancôme counter. I get a bunch in my stocking every holiday, they are perfect for a on the go quick splash of color and shine. 

My look today kind of went with the grey overcast skies and rain, my tank is by Knit Riot LA and yes I wished I would have heard that Monday was cancelled and I could go home today. Layered this tank over a solid black cami since it has high side slits, love the slits they make the top feel flowy and light. My necklace is by Whiskey + Bone, check her out on instragam @Whiskeyandbone, you can now use the code WANDERLUSTBABE for 10% off your order at www.whiskeyandbone.com on Etsy

Paired my graphic tank with Silver Jeans Co grey, distressed, Suki Mid ankle skinny jeans. Love the frayed bottoms that can be folded up more for a more cropped Capri look.  My belt is a black leather grommet belt that matches my shoes which aren't in the photos. Wearing some cute Madden grommet trimmed sandals. 

Close up view of my jeans by Silver Jeans Co. These are a favorite of mine, love the grey wash with distressing and some of the holes have a black patch under them. The bottoms are rolled up once with a frayed unfinished bottom. These are the Suki Mid Ankle Skinny jeans in grey. Photo was taken on my Rainbow Swirl tie dye Sand Cloud Tapestry I have on the foot of my bed as a throw.

Back side of the jeans, for me pickets are a huge factor when purchasing jeans. With the proper placement, size and stitching the pockets can create the perfect backside. No mom jeans here, these are some of my hubby's favorites. He is always complementing me in these jeans. 

Close up of the bracelets I wore today by Alex and Ani, and Sashka Co. Went with some shiny silver charm bracelets by Alex and Ani with my black beaded wrap. I have from left to right, Peace Love Music, Painted Feather, and Free Soirit charm bracelets all are not that old and from the spring/summer collections. My beaded wrap has beautiful iridescent black beads on a silver wire wrap that matched perfectly with my Sashka Company glass beaded iridescent bracelet. These amazing bracelets come in a huge variety of patterns, solids and colors. They are all handmade in Nepal by local artisans and each purchase empowers and provides sustainable work for local Nepali families.

Heading to bed was planning to go to sleep early but dosed off around 4 ended up sleeping till around 6 then made dinner, hoping I won't be up all night because the entire weekend I was lucky if if I got 3 solid hours of sleep. Have an amazing week, Peace, Love and Light always, xoxo 

Charming Christmas presents

I adore my new Alex and Ani chain station necklace and charms. Just learning how to adjust and add charms along with moving the beads. Have two more charms to add, the cosmic balance and Godspeed, then plan to get a P for my girls. Love the peridot crystal which is my birthstone and then hubby gave me the love and lotus flower, my friend gave me Godspeed and my aunt got the cosmic balance charm. Once I have it all laid out and finish adjusting will add more photos so you can see why this is the best charm necklace ever created. Love that you can adjust the length and add on new charms so easily. 

I also got the cosmic balance ring to add to my collection, and many new bangles in gold and silver. I am ready to focus on adding more color to my stacks and a few last charms I love. I feel blessed to have received so many new pieces for my collection. These are for sure my favorite accessories. 

Love my top green spiked bracelet and birthstone additions. I also got the silver spiked bracelet a couple of weeks ago. Not pictured here is my lotus, p, sunflower, and leaf bracelets. Also you can't see my quill feather good, I have two of them, long story but kept them both. I have the feather, pineapple, Buddha, hand of Fatima, monopoly dog (we have a mini schnauzer) and have a few of the silver beaded bracelets. 

My gold stack is the one that has grown the most. I am really hoping for more rose gold pieces in the future. I left out my FSU, Godspeed and Cosmic balance bracelets because I was wearing those but have my compass, love, heart wrap, feather wrap, feather, romance beaded, vintage 66 filigree beads and a few others in there that are hard to make out since they are stacked so close. 

I also gifted a lot of these bracelets this year. My aunt, mom, mother in law and bestie all got Alex and Ani charms for Christmas. 

I have the rose gold vintage sixty-six gypsy wrap here with some of my gold Alex and Ani. I enjoy mixing and matching the different metals. Again like j mentioned above I have added many new pieces but want to add more of the color beaded bracelets to break up some of the metal ones. One of my fab rotors not worn here is the Stargazer silver wrap, I had to buy it because it was on sale and couldn't keep it out of my mind after trying it on awhile back. My daughter has a few of her own but that is one of her favorites that she borrows and wears often of mine. I don't mind sharing since she shares her clothes and accessories with me when I want to borrow. 

Couldn't remember if I shared this vest I found at Target that is made of this soft plush blanket like material. Again an option if you like the faux fur styles without wearing the heavier fur looks. This is soft and light weight but still has that look.

My new jacket by Jet by John Eshaya. Scored this $395 jacket for under $50 on eBay. Love the black high waisted leggings and cowhide camouflage heels by Nine West. 

I think I have shared most of my other outfit posts and flat lays in prior posts last week. This week will wrap up the year with a few posts and celebrate the start of 2016. Can't wait to share my adventures and fashion faves for the new year with everyone. Already working on some spring styles and new trends I have been seeing a lot of from work. Excited to share some of my favorites. 

Hope everyone had an amazing Christmas and received what you wished for this year. I know we had an amazing holiday in my home and everyone was good this year, so Santa brought us lots of amazing goodies. My youngest is now working hard to learn how to ride her new bike so we can remove the temporary added on training wheels. We got her a beach cruiser style bike and it was difficult for her to balance but she is getting the hang of it. I got my hubby a bike and my oldest also got a new bike, so now we all have beach cruisers to take down to the beach and ride this year. Looking forward to it. Also looking forward to planning our annual family trip for spring break. Right now trying to decide between a cruise or a trip to the mountains, we love to visit NC and TN in the spring I am dreaming of moving there within the next three years. 

Till next time lots of love to everyone xoxo
