The Most Fun Christmas Ornaments!


Ok, so yeah, I don’t have a tree up this year (or really since maybe 2007) but that doesn’t mean that I don’t like Christmas ornaments. I grew up with a mish mosh tree that had a variety of my grandmother’s antique ornaments, ornaments I made in school (presumably out of construction paper and popsicle sticks) and random ornaments that my mother bought me at Disney World and other assorted gift shops.  Not that I don’t love a good family-style tree, I do, but there’s something elegant and fun about a tree with a theme.  Here are three fun theme picks:

1. Cupcakes: WHO doesn’t love a good cupcake?  A tree full of scrumptious snacks sounds like fun to me.
2. Leopard (and other assorted animal prints): It’s girly and fun, just make sure you don’t go all Jersey Shore with it. Keep it simple.
3. PANTONE: I lovvvve love PANTONE anything, as you know, so obviously having an entire tree full of the assorted shades  would just be the coolest thing ever.

Top Pantone Color for Spring 2013: Monaco Blue

I don’t know why I’m so obsessed with Pantone and its chic-ness, but I am.  And when Pantone announced their list of top colors for Spring 2013, I got super excited because let’s face it…I look really good in this color blue.  Modesty aside, here are some of my favorite items in one of this Spring’s hottest color:

J.Crew Lustre Lace Mockneck Tee: I wear my black lace top from Zara pretty much too often so, naturally, I am way into this blue version.

Marc Jacobs Linear Logo iPhone Case: I know, I know…everyone’s getting the iPhone 5 BUT, if you’re like me, you can still use this cute MJ case.

Sam Edelman Danielle Suede Pump: Pointy toe pumps have been making a big comeback, thank god, and I love the metallic heel on this blue version.

Vanessa Mooney The Mesa Bracelet: Monaco Blue looks GREAT with gold and this bracelet is pretty awesome.

Essie “Aruba Blue”: Blue nails had a moment a few years back and now if someone gives you shit for wearing blue nail polish, you can refer them to the Pantone website.
