gonna paint the town red.

lately i have been drawn to anything and everything red. 
maybe it is the season. maybe it is the glamour.
whatever it is,
red has great appeal to me these days. 

i am seeing pops of red all over in the fashion world.
handbags. purses. shoes. blouses. scarves.
"big apple red" may or may not be my fave go-to nail color.
and the perfect red lipstick is a must have on my december shopping list.
{i am open to suggestions from fellow red lipstick lovers} 

all this seeing red has definitely gotten me into the christmas spirit.
and has got me wanting to adorn my home & life with festive pops of red.
i am dreaming of little vases filled to the brim with red and white peppermints.
silver trays displaying perfectly arranged red bauble ornaments.
leggy twigs dripping with winter red berries.
a high gloss kate spade red purse.
red skinny pants from jcrew.
just the thought of it all makes me feel very, very merry

here is a bit of my red and white inspiration.
for home. for dress. for parties.


a sweet way to display minty treats.
perfect for a hot cocoa party. 


i love the simple elegance of these chairs.
the satin ribbon.
the simple greenery.
and a dash of nature with the pinecones.


eye candy. in red and white. 
the variation in height and size helps in reaching
peppermint perfection. 

i simply adore how everything here coordinates. 
the neutrals and reds are lovely.
look at the details.
the stamps. the bakers twine. the buttons.
love. love. love. 


i am certain i will be baking these for my little first graders.
how precious?! 


the art of gift wrapping is something i greatly appreciate.
i have already bought my wrapping paper for the season,
{gold and cream. stripes. polka dots.}
but this tower of pretty presents is making me rethink my color scheme. 
i love the red & white with a hint of lime green.
the patterns are whimsical and fun.

it is a fact, wrapping pretty presents can be just as fun as giving them.
so, pick a color scheme & organize your gift wrapping station now.
make sure you check your list. twice.
wrapping paper. double sided tape. ribbons. tags.
i especially love having all the presents wrapped early so that they decorate the tree.


loving this little get up.
simple. yet bold.
kate spade has a darling red dress like this, 
only it has flirty, ruffled sleeves.
i am coveting it. 


a girl can't go wrong with red skinnies. 
so versatile. so fun.

hello, lovelies.
every girl needs these to twirl around in.


i see lanterns like these at home goods all the time.
a good deal. a bottle of red high gloss spray paint.
voila!

i could see a few of them stacked up my front porch steps. 


color blocked books. 
brilliant.


red baubles just scream christmas spirit. 


is it acceptable to paint my front door for the season?!

i just can't get enough of all the red.
i always did like rudolph best of all.
