This beautiful weather has me hoping that winter never comes this year!  I love being able to run out of the house without a coat and not freeze to death!  I'm wearing a sweater from Loft that you've seen before styled in a very similar way!  Previously I wore it with knit leggings and flat over the knee boots, but today, I made it a little edgier with faux leather leggings and tall platform boots by Stuart Weitzman.  I bought these boots a couple of seasons ago and for some reason haven't worn them much.  This season, I have reached for them numerous times and I'm loving them...they are very comfortable and make me feel tall!  The bag is also one that I've had for a while and wear every season.

I'm trying to take my own advice from my blog post yesterday and slow down to find the wonder in the season!  I have so many exciting things going on and I'm feeling slightly overwhelmed...so in light of that, here are a few things that I'm appreciating (other than the beautiful weather).  I'm so appreciating my yoga practice right now.  I teach every Wednesday morning and try to do as much as possible at home.  Sometimes, on Wednesday, I wake up and think that I have too much to do or it's way to early to be up and out, but after I get to the studio, I'm am ALWAYS so glad that I made the effort to get up.  I have (mostly) the same people in my class every week and I feel as if they have become friends and I do look forward to seeing them and giving them the gift of the best yoga class that I can teach.  I'm appreciating all of the opportunities that the Universe is offering to me right now (more about that later).  I'm appreciating and anticipating my upcoming trip to New York and that I'm so fortunate to be able to spend time in one of my favorite cities during the holiday season.  I'm also anticipating my family being home again for Christmas.  I love it so much when we're all together and that doesn't happen nearly as often as I would like.

Also, I keep forgetting to mention that Brooke Morgan won the Stella & Dot earrings.  Congratulations Brooke!!  Check back because I'm doing another giveaway very soon!
