A couple of weeks ago, my boyfriend and I went to tag our Christmas tree. It was a glorious experience; an afternoon spent wandering around through a field of Christmas trees. (Had the trees been taller, it would certainly be more appropriate to call it a “forest,” but since the tallest tree was only about […]

Effective this evening, I deleted allroyal.tumblr.com – so if any blogs pop up with that URL and start creating drama (which I imagine they will), it’s not me. xoxo
2012 Holiday Gift Guide | #1 – Gifts for Coziness
Welcome to the 2012 Holiday Gift Guide! I did a really great, extensive gift guide in 2010 and then didn’t really bother with it that much in 2011. This year, I’ve decided to do it again! I’m starting off with some gifts that will make anyone happy – because who doesn’t love being cozy and […]
I’m Lusting After… Oxblood.
Is it red? Is it purple? Who knows, and who cares? It’s the color of the season … and I’m happy to report that it’s been hanging out in my closet for a while now. Oxblood by theblogtini featuring high heel shoes

Stop and Listen… Mad Men Cast + “Never Gonna Give You Up”
Boyfriend and I have started watching Mad Men on Netflix, and I’m kind of in love with it. I also love silly YouTube videos, and cover versions of great songs. When you put those three things together, this is what you get. The Cast of Mad Men performing “Never Gonna Give You Up” by Rick […]
I’m Lusting After… Cardigans.
I have a thing for cardigans, and find myself feeling like my outfit isn’t complete without one. Does that make me practical, or entirely old-fashioned? They’re perfect layering pieces for fall, when the air gets a chill but it isn’t quite cold enough for a bulky sweater. Either way, I need these in my closet this […]
