Happy Friday, friends. I’m so sad that it’s Friday because that means I return to work in just a few days. It has been amazing to have some time off to visit with friends and family.
As we are wrapping up 2016, we thought we would share a few of our favorite purchases of 2016. Lindsey’s items were on the blog yesterday, so make sure to check those out as well. Here are mine!

Cable Knit Pom Pom Beanie | Steve Madden Over-the-knee boots | Urban Decay Naked2 Palette | Adidas Superstars | Capri Blue Iridescent Jar Candle | Flora Crystal Stud Set of 4 | Pottery Barn Clift Oversized Glass Pendant | Apple Watch Series 2 | Vince Camuto ‘Peera’ Cutout Bootie | Vigoss ‘Chelsea’ Destroyed Skinny Jeans | Urban Oufitters Emma Sunglasses | Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM
Pom Pom Beanie: If you were to run into me over the weekend (or today), chances are I’m rocking a pom pom beanie. I’m all about throwing on a hat or beanie to avoid styling or even brushing my hair on the weekends. While I have several beanies, my cream one is my absolute favorite.
OTK Boots: I was very hesitant to try over-the-knee boots. I was afraid that the boots would not fit over my calves and thighs and then I would be even more self-conscious about my legs…but, I was wrong. These boots are cute, comfortable, chic and the best part, they actually make my legs look thinner!
Eye shadow: This palette of neutrals is amazing. The 12 shades range from matte to shimmer and sparkle. Plus, it comes with a professional-quality shadow brush.
Sneakers: I’ve talked about my newfound love for sneakers a lot this year so, of course, my Adidas Superstars made the list. I love these shoes so much that I now want the white and copper metallic ones.
Candle: I’ll keep this really short. If you love candles, this one smells amazing.
Earrings: I purchased this set a little over a month ago and haven’t worn any other earrings since. While these crystal covered studs look big, they aren’t heavy at all. Plus, they are marked down to $58 (from $112).
Chandelier: We purchased this teardrop pendant earlier in the year to hang over our dining room table. We love the oversized wine jug and the texture of handblown glass.
Watch: I just got my Apple Watch Series 2 for Christmas so I’m still trying to figure out all the features but I love what I do know so far. I haven’t worked out yet, but looking forward to seeing what the fitness features have to offer come next week when I get back to the gym (with everyone else in the world).
Booties: These cutout booties should be no surprise. I’ve worn them so many times on the blog. They are so comfortable and I love the cutout detail. And guess what…the camel ones are currently on sale for $129!
Ripped Denim: Do you hate spending hundreds of dollars on jeans? Well, I took a chance on Vigoss Destroyed Skinny Jeans and they are now my favorites. I’m obsessed with them (I am wearing these today too)…so much I’m going to buy a second pair because they are currently on sale for $45. YES, FORTY-FIVE DOLLARS!
Sunglasses: Similar to the high price of jeans, I was tired of spending hundreds of dollars on sunglasses to only throw them in my purse or in my passenger car seat. It made no sense, so I found these at Urban Outfitters for $16 and I wear them non-stop. Goes to show you that you don’t have to spend a fortune for something cute. Plus, these more affordable finds helped offset my next item.
Designer bag: Obviously, this was a splurge item but I work hard and this was a treat for myself. I decided to purchase during our trip to Charleston in October and while I had a little buyer’s remorse at first, I have really enjoyed my new bag. We all work very hard so if there is something you want and can pull it off, I say reward yourself.
Hope you all have the happiest of New Years!
xoxo,
Tiffany
