Angela Moore nautical ornaments

I am going to attempt a mini nautical Christmas tree this year. If I start collecting now I will have enough nautical ornaments for a big tree in a few years ;) I have already started looking for nautical ornaments. Here are my favorites from Angela Moore. Both are steals for just $10!

Do you sell nautical ornaments? Did you see nautical ornaments at a local store? Email me and I will feature them on the blog.

I love my...

Vineyard Vines Snow Day Puffer Vest. I got this as a present for dog/house sitting and it is so comfortable! I got it in Rasberry Lemonade-love that color name. My old pink vest from American Eagle was faded and dirty so it was time for a new one. The VV vest has fleece lined pockets that zip (essential!) and a cute little whale on the back of the collar. I love the look of a vest over a long sleeve tee (perfect for LA "cold") or hoodie (for when it is actually cold).

Nautical outfit of the week

This week I am featuring a whole family in their nautical Halloween costumes!
Kristen F. and her husband were Lobstermen and their adorable son, Colin, was their "Catch of the Day"! Kristen's family is into sailing, surfing, and swimming so of course they chose nautical costumes!

Baby Colin:


The whole family:

Thanks to Carol A. for the tips!

Anchor notecards:


Anchor cookie cutter:


I think this bead would make such a pretty bracelet!


Rug:

Oh Little J

I have posted before about the school uniforms on Gossip Girl. I let it slide before because I loved the outfits but I am NOT a fan of Jenny's new style. How is this allowed at a private school??



I understand one has to suspend reality when watching TV but could they make the uniform a bit more believable?

Outer Banks Trading Group

Very cute nautical store!

Nautical Tealight Holders (there are matching plates, glasses, napkins, etc):

Nautical outfit of the week

This week's nautical outfit was sent in by Megan W. Megan had a nautical themed party for her 20th birthday in Charleston, South Carolina. All of the guests wore nautical outfits and drank fun boat/nautical inspired drinks!



Let's see those nautical Halloween costumes! Don't forgot to send in your nautical outfits!

Greek and Gossip Girl: Good Girls Go Bad

If you watched Greek last night you saw ZBZ dancing to their version of Cobra Starship's Good Girls Go Bad:


This was actually the day I saw them filming so the ZBZ version has been stuck in my head for weeks!

Well just in case you didn't know, Gossip Girl's Leighton Meester is featured in the song and video!

They even played the song on Gossip Girl during the scene where Dan tells Blair there are no headbands in college

PB Teen

Sweet Treat Storage Holders:

LOVE the cupcakes. Not so crazy about the other ones.

I Heart Earrings Holder:

Right now I keep my earrings in a clear box (looks like a big pill box) but this would be so much cuter!

Pretty Parlor Stool Slipcover (on sale AND can be monogrammed):

The pink and brown combo is my fav!

The Monogram Swap

I just saw this website over at Miss Monogram's blog and thought I would share. There is a new website called The Monogram Swap. I think it is a great idea, especially for children's items that are outgrown! Here's the info:

The Monogram Swap is a website that allows shoppers to list gently used monogrammed items for sale. Until December 1st you can list your items for FREE!! The best part is you set the price for your item! If it sells you keep all the money (minus a tiny 10% transaction fee). As The Monogram Swap was launched earlier this month, there isn't a ton of inventory on the site, but hopefully as the word spreads, the site will fill with more and more monogrammed items! So rack your brain and your closet and see if you have anything to put on the site or have anyone you can recommend it to.

Nautical outfit of the week

Sent in by Natalie at Carolina Prep.

Natalie writes, "University of South Carolina's homecoming theme this year was 'Anchor's Away.' I knew we were in for some cute tshirts! As soon as I saw my sorority's tee I immediately thought of you!!"

The first picture is the front of both shirts, with the navy being her sorority's shirt and the white being USC's overall homecoming tee:


The next 2 are the backs of the shirts:
