what I received for my birthday

i hope y'all had a very merry and cheery holiday season

today I'm going to share my birthday presents with y'all

i am very very thankful for everything I received and had a blast being able to spend my birthday with my mom's side of the family on our ski trip! (post soon to come)

here are my presents in no particular order : 

a gorgeous pair of silver hoop earrings

a received these from my grandparents, and i absolutely love them! 

they go with everything and i can't wait to wear them they're beautiful

a bauble bar necklace 

i have been eyeing bubble necklaces for the longest time and when i told my mom that i was wishing for a necklace from bauble bar, she definitely knew which one to get me! 

i'm in love

 a gold pair of hoop earrings

i received these from my aunt and uncle and couldn't be happier

i love how they're not seen everyday while still being a classic hoop earring!

 a kate spade phone case 

i received this case from my brother and i absolutely LOVE it! 

it's just so so cute and ugh 

it's on my phone right now, and i don't expect it to come off anytime soon

my big present this year was a michael kors watch from my parents! 

my parents gave me all of my gifts before they gave me this one so i was so surprise when they said "wait i think we have one more gift"

(classic christmas story line ;) ) 

my poor dad had to brave the michael kors store this holiday season and he accidentally got the rose gold watch, so i'm going to exchange it for the gold one!

i love both rose gold and gold watched, but i feel like the gold one is more classic 

 last, but certainly not least i received hunter boot socks from my cousins! this is my first pair of hunter boots socks, and i can't wait to where them in the snow and rain and if i'm obsessed enough maybe even the sun;)

i also received a target gift card, some spending money, and a pair of madewell pants! 

i'm so grateful of everything that i received and absolutely couldn't be happier! 

what should i spend my birthday money on?

what was your favorite gift this holiday season?

thanks for reading!

The Palm Gifts

I recently stumbled upon the cutest online store called The Palm Gifts. 

This store literally has all your monogrammed needs, for the best prices of all times! 

Get ready to find the perfect holiday presents for your friends, your moms, your sisters, and your friend's sister's moms! 

I received my items in record breaking time, and they are literally perfect. You should definitely add these items to your Christmas list and/or find gifts for your friends. 

I was very kindly sent these two items, and I have to say I absolutely love them. I was sent the soft cashmere feel monogrammed scarf in sassy pink and also the monogrammed cosmetic bag in the color lime. 

First of all, I have to say that the monogrammed scarf is my new favorite. I am a scarf addict so I own a lot of scarves, and to say that this scarf is my favorite really does say a lot! It is so soft and so perfect. I love the little tassels on the end. I also wear a lot of navy in the winter time, so the fact that the monogram is in navy is perfect because it matches my entire wardrobe! 

This scarf comes in five different colors, fifteen different thread color options for the monogram, and four different monogram fonts.

 How great is that? 

This scarf is the perfect gift for all of your friends, because who doesn't love a good scarf in the winter time? 

The best part? 

It only costs $20. 

You read that right, $20! 

I was also sent this adorable monogrammed makeup case. As you might know, I'm beyond obsessed with cases. I have a huge collection, and it's starting to become a problem. 

A problem that I'm perfectly ok with having;)

Any way, I absolutely LOVE this makeup case for three reasons

1. It's huge : 

I have a lot of makeup, and when I travel I like to take a lot with me. This case can fit all the makeup I need and more! It's perfect. 

2. It's lined : 

If you've ever had makeup spilled in one of your cases that isn't lined, you know how much of a pain it is to clean out. Because, this case is lined I'm ensured easy cleanup if anything should break! 

2.5 It has a pocket on the inside: 

The pockets makes it easy to reach your most used items! 

3. It has a bow on it : 

Need I say more? Seriously, how darn cute is that bow? 

This makeup case has

Six different color options for the case 

52 different bow options 

17 different thread colors for the monogram 

9 different font options for the monogram. 

Can you say "customizable"? 

Again, the best part?

It only costs $18.95.

Yep, $18.95! 

Buy one for yourself, your mom, your friends, and your mailman! 

Aren't these the most perfect holiday gifts? 

Thanks for reading!
