Instagrammable Palm Springs Spot: The Monkey Tree Hotel

I discovered one of the most Instagrammable spots in Palm Springs I'm excited to share with you in hopes the next time you visit the area you can stay here. The Monkey Tree Hotel was kind to invite us to stay, courtesy of Palm Spring Preferred Small Hotels which is a collection of independent inns, villas and resorts. They are hip, modern, and you can find one that fits your specific needs - check out more hotels here. We picked my birthday weekend because of weather and well, can you think of a better time? I can't wait to show you around the resort and share some cool finds as well as share some of the latest collection of fall from one of my favorite, near and dear to my heart brands, Lilly Pulitzer - because when I think resort, palm trees, and Palm Springs, it's always Lilly attire.

Cactarium in Palm Springs

How was your Thanksgiving, Black Friday, rival football game weekend? My Thanksgiving was delicious as always since we started going to Benjamin's relatives and also get some goody leftovers to enjoy later that night and the next afternoon. We indulged heavily in Black Friday since we had lots of things to buy for the expansion and saved up, more on that in a second. The fact that the items I had been eyeing and saved on Pinterest, were all on sale, we just decided to buy buy buy! When you've been waiting for the right moment then Black Friday and Cyber Monday rolls around, oh boy! My team lost in the territorial cup, but I didn't watch the game since I was decorating the house for Christmas and Mr. Wonderful was hanging Christmas lights.

A Dozen Things

Hi babes, I hope you are wearing stretchy pants and have full bellies if you live in 'Merica. It's Thanksgiving and I thought I'd just throw up a personal post with yes, a few shopping links so you can get busy on some online shopping (see my favorite products here), or, just take a wee bit of a break with me. Thanks for being here. I want to share a few things that have been going on. I had a birthday, I don't publicize it until after.

This Holiday Give a Tree with a Tree Card and Certificates

With the home expansion and a Christmas list, we are trying to save money in so many ways this season. The home expansion is on the top of our minds right now. With any expansion, there are unexpected things that have come up (though I expect that too, haha). Then there's the realization you still have to furnish the space. All this to say, this holiday season we are looking for great ways to give back but also show our loved ones that we are thinking about them.

Early Black Friday Deals + $50 Credit Giveaway

Hello loves, this is the weekend to get your shop on - have you noticed? I had placed a few online orders and when they arrived I saw that the items already went on sale before I had a chance to wear them! Luckily I was able to get a price adjustment. Remember when it was just Black Friday and then sales started even earlier like Thanksgiving night, I think the sales just keep getting earlier and earlier and I don't have much of a problem with that! FitFlop, the comfortable and stylish ergonomic shoes is having an early Black Friday sale, up to 60% off! I also get to reward 5 readers $50 credits to FitFlop with a $150 minimum spend.

Lazy Girl Breakfast – the Avocado Toast

I have prayed for the desire to cook extravagant meals. It's just not happening. It's not in God's perfect will. So, I have allowed myself to be who God has made me to be - someone who likes to eat and doesn't like to cook unless it's easy. I do have a few favorite recipes but they are EASY. Do you see how I tried to get fancy with presentation and drip olive oil on my plate as if it was a dessert, like chocolate sauce. I mean, olive oil may as well be the chocolate sauce to some dishes, if you ask me.

Get Your Home Holiday Ready With These Products

I've been shooting a lot more in my house, have you noticed? The light is pouring in through the windows now that the patio is taken down so I'm taking advantage of it! I also love shooting in my own home, it's like I get to invite you into my house (and also makes shoots easier). The goal is to shoot more in my own home this next year. When the expansion goes up (replacing where the patio was) we are adding a skylight anyway so we will still get some light in this area. And once the expansion is done, more entertaining for guests!
