Life has been happening in warp speed lately. It feels like it was just Thanksgiving and Christmas and now we’re halfway through January. Since there are so many fun events coming up I’m giddy with anticipation and excited for celebrations, parties, sunshine and warmer weather in the coming months. For now, let’s backtrack and see what’s been going on.
[ Rainy day style : boots, leggings, coat, purse]
[ In the beginning of registry planning I didn’t get excited about china and was going to skip it in general until I discovered this beautiful set last week. I love that it’s classic, but chic and modern all at the same time.]
[Bridesmaid hair from a recent January wedding]
[A recent pillow addition that’s now packed up for another three months until the big day!]
[My standard morning breakfast. Rolled oats cooked in almond milk, sweetened with cinnamon and a drizzle of honey. Topped with fresh strawberries, bananas and almonds. So good and filling!]

I ended up not getting china when I got married and really regret it! Not because I’d use it all the time but because it’s just nice to have and you’ll have it forever. Love the china you picked out! We’re in the process of redoing our bedroom and I think I might copy you and get an H pillow!
I love the china that you ended up getting – so pretty!!! Seriously that pillow is so cute – need a P now!!! xo, Biana – BlovedBoston
i agree with you— how is it already the middle of january?!?! eeks! love love that china! we didnt get any but im pretty sure if i saw that set i would have registered for it. xo jillian
LOVE the place setting! Wonderful choice!
That china is on another level – so perfect, and so you!
Loving the china pick- very classy and timeless. Since I’ve stepped up my working out I have been eating oats in the morning and loving how full and energized it keeps me. Also where did you get your headboard? I am in the market for a new one and love the neutral look of yours. Have a great rest of the week love!
Ooo, I love that hairstyle – so sleek and chic! I’ve come to the conclusion that time is only going to start moving faster, so no better time to do things than NOW 🙂
We selected Waterford Padova, which is pretty neutral and mixes well with family china we were gifted. I was actually surprised how many settings we received because Fine china and silver are not so common nowadays. Omg I love wedding talk!
Need to try that breakfast – sounds filling and delicious! Also, I looooove posts like this. That wedding hair !!!!
That china is stunning! ANd your oatmeal looks so tasty, going to fix my breakfast now 🙂
I can’t believe we’re already halfway through January. I feel like a broken record saying it, but time is moving too fast! At least this means warmer weather will be back sooner.
Love the china set you picked!! I know it will be hard for me to find one too when the time comes, because I have similar taste to yours and everything I see isn’t quite right. This Kate Spade one is perfect though! 🙂
That coat is gorgeous! Do you like it? I’m in need of a new one.
Your hair looks so gorgeous in the shot from a wedding! Loving the rainy day look as well. I’ve been sooo tempted to wear Hunters to work, but they’re not quite worth being sent home to change 😉
That updo is so chic and classic! I love the pillow, the perfect addition to any room!
That china is so so pretty! And I loved your bridesmaid hair!

LOVE that J. Crew coat!
That hairstyle is gorgeous! And that is my go to breakfast as well, a bowl of warm oats on a cold winter morning is the best way to start the day!
Your first outfit is too good! Also, love your hair from the wedding. Your go-to breakfast looks amazing! xo
In love with the china you picked out! So classic.
