I’m back in England for Christmas and have already hit a few holiday parties, met up with my best mates for drinks, and grabbed dinner with old colleagues – all great reasons to get dressed up and festive. I’ve been thinking about versatile party ensembles that anyone can achieve with […]
There’s nothing quite as festive as yummy smelling pomanders for the holidays. Every year I get together with my nieces to make them when I go back to England, it’s such a fun family tradition and they make your home smell absolutely heavenly. These clove studded oranges are typically tied with […]
