I definitely have a favorite color scheme this season and it's black and gold.  My house is black and gold (with a few touches of silver) for the holiday, and most of my new clothing purchases are in the same color scheme.  I'd been looking for a black purse with gold hardware without much luck, and then I received an email from Michael Kors showing me the perfect leopard print small Hamilton purse with gold hardware and, even better, it was on sale!  Merry Christmas to me...

Michael Kors small Hamilton purse and gold watch; three gold bangles from Nordstroms; Chicos gold and clear stretch bracelet; Alexis Bittar gold earrings and two bangles 

Absolutely love my new purse, and it's just the right accessory to finish off several holiday outfits.  

Here's one of them:

Chicos gold sequined jacket and gold sequined scarf; White House Black Market wide-leg black slacks

Leopard heels from Target

 Are you finished yet with the holiday decorating? I'm done with the living room!  And some of the other rooms, too...but not the tree.  Maybe later tonight...after a glass or two of wine...

Anybody up for a trim-the-tree party?  

And the following is for my sister.  I told her that I had added gold glitter to the spines of some books and she wanted to see it. I found this idea in another blog (or Pinterest?) and would love to give credit 

but can't remember where I saw it.  Anyone else suffer from this problem?

Wishing you a wonderful holiday season!  Check in with Ann and Sheila this week, and I'll see you Friday when I talk about what I'm doing for "fun" these days.

Love,
H
