Stacey's Smiles

Finally started wrapping some presents! 

Sunday mornings are my favourite! 

Winter Nails. 

I tried my hand at some felting this week!  

Finally my Anthropologie mug showed up! 

There's not many Fridays left this year, eek! And it's less than 4 weeks until Christmas! Luckily I have the first week of December off work to catch up on my Christmas shopping, watch some festive films, drink gingerbread lattes and take a trip to London to Winter Wonderland. Happy Friday!!

Gifts for a Beauty Junkie

I would love to find any of these beauty goodies in my stocking on Christmas morning! Some of these are my tried and tested favourites, I cannot live without my Clarisonic and this Jo Malone fragrance was a new discovery this year. I wish we still had Sephora in the UK because I would be heading straight there to do some of my Christmas shopping!

Primark Shirt, American Eagle Faux Fur Vest, Zara Jeans, Steve Madden Boots,

Goodies from Canada!

And yummy treats too! I need to find a recipe for these. 

Saturday Morning Warmer! 

 Black & Gold.

A project I'm working on for me room!

I'm sort of scared that we only have one more week of November left! On the plus side that means I only have a week of work to go before a much need week off! My desk has a mountain of work I need to get done before then, so I am going to spend some time with my best friend at the weekend so I don't started getting stressed out! 

I was also so honoured to be feature on Top Shelf Clothes Blog yesterday alongside the beautiful Kat from Kat With Love. You can sign up for Top Shelf Clothes here with the invite code StyleByStacey.

Golden Gift Guide

I feel so unorganised this year! I normally have 95% of my Christmas shopping done and wrapped by the end of November. With just a week left I'm certain I'm going to be way behind this year! I'm not panicking just yet because I mostly know what I need to go out and purchase!

 If you have a gold lover (like me) in your life I have rounded up some of my favourite picks from a whole range of prices! A gold iPhone would be a pretty awesome gift too, luckily I got my Christmas gift to myself early this year and have got that one covered!

Cozy Knits & Gold Polka Dots

Zara Coat, H&M Sweater, J Crew Pixie Pants, Steve Madden Boots,

Michael Kors Watch, Chapters Indigo Scarf

It's getting so cold now, I am permanently wrapped up in sweaters right now! I'm not complaining though because I love snuggling up in them!

Also can we talk about this fabulous scarf that came all the way from Canada! I fell in love with it when I saw it on instagram and one of the Pharmacists at work just got back from a trip to Quebec and he had this in tow! He is one of the sweetest people I know and I am so grateful that he took the time to find this scarf for me!

A new plaid purchase (get it here).

Gingerbread men goodies from The Body Shop.

A new little ring.

Holiday prep with my SS Print Shop prints.

Macaron pyjamas, enough said! 

Happy Friday again!!! It came around so quickly this week, Christmas is going to creep up on me this year I just know it! Luckily I started some more holiday prep on my day off and got all of my Christmas cards written, next job buy some stamps!

How is everyone liking the new blog design? I've also finally given my blog a Facebook page (here) so come and say hi there too!

Some Added Sparkle

You might have noticed things are looking a little bit different over here! I decided it was time my blog had a little bit of extra sparkle added to it! I can't thank Gillian from elevatormusik enough, she was such a dream to work with and listened to everything thing I wanted, she even added one of my shoe paintings into my header!! 

Plaid Enough??

In case yesterday's post didn't make you fall in love with plaid here are some of my favourite pieces out in stores now ranging from shirts to coats to scarves! Happy Shopping!

Navy Plaid

Elizabeth James Plaid Blazer, Zara Tee, LC for Kohl's Jeans,

Chinese Laundry Boots, Love Quotes Scarf, Phillip Lim for Target Bag

I am mad for plaid right now! I purchased this skirt at the weekend and it inspired me to pull at this old blazer which deserves to be worn a lot more!

A little Friday Hello!!

There's still plenty of pumpkins hanging around.

All things pink & gold!

Everyone loves a good freebie, especially when nails inc & Kate Spade team up.

Some Christmas have started to appear! 

Happy Friday!!! I am super excited that I have just one day left at work before the weekend. My weekend is chock a block full and I cannot wait because it invovles spending time with some of my favourite people and a trip to Ikea!! What is everyone else looking forward to this weekend??

A Shiny Pony Painting

Last month I was inspired to do a painting of my 'Shiny Ponies' and I thrilled with how it turned out! I wanted to send one to the sweet Stephanie (check out her blog & print shop) since I first fell in love with these shoes on her Instagram. When I saw how she styled her painting this week it put the biggest smile on my face, she makes everything look so beautiful, I just had to she her picture with you all!

Autumn Leaves

I had so much fun playing in all the leaves when I was shooting for this post last week, I just had to share these pictures. One of my favourite parts of my day at the moment is crunching through the leaves on my way to work!
