Merry Christmas to you and yours!  Wishing you a cozy holiday with family and friends!  This super soft cardigan and faux leather leggings look will be taking me through the holidays.  If you need a cozy cashmere cardigan (in 8 colors) check out these details - and find out why my favorite reindeer is Dancer!

My favorite trend to wear this New Year's Eve (and throughout the holiday season) is velvet!  It is happening from high end brands like Gucci and Dior yet available in some great affordable options that we have picked for you!

Yikes!!  It is close to the wire on getting our holiday gifts. But you have been busy finishing end of year work projects to get everything on your list.  We get it!  We know you don't want your gifts to look like last minute afterthoughts so here are our picks for the men and women you love!  And, you can still get these gifts handled before Christmas PLUS they keep giving all year long!

Since I could not send you all each a Christmas card I thought I would post them for you to see.  And tell you my time saving hacks to make sending holiday cards or new year cards easier! Plus a 30% off discount code and free shipping to get yours now!

I don't know about you but I love the holiday party season! It has to be one of my favorite excuses to get dolled up and go out with friends.  But work parties are inevitably a little trickier than the typical night out with the friends. Your uber mini skirt may not be the best pick for your work event but you still want to look fabulous, so what's a girl to do?

Everyone has sat through a training course that was either boring, irrelevant and absolutely nothing to do with your career. Some training courses form part of a mandatory training program, but in truth - they’re most likely of no use to you at all. That shouldn’t put you off training altogether, and there are in fact some great courses out there that are not only interesting and relevant, but they could help your career development. Take a look at some top training courses that are most definitely worth your time.
