Hi there!

Happy New Year! 🥂🎊✨🥳 I hope you had a great time celebrating. I put a reflective post up on IG with my thoughts on 2020. Let me know what your thoughts are I would love to know. I also posted about which New Years look I went with, and this matching cozy lounge set & slippers won over the sequin jogger and velvet heels look since let’s be honest it was a stay home kinda New Years! I tagged alternatives of both looks on my LIKEtoKNOW.it page so you have plenty of options to choose from of my loungewear faves. Nasty Gal’s site is having a HIGE 90% off sale and they have an amazing variety of loungewear co-ord sets. I snagged another one (see me wearing it below, it’s also on LTK). Amazon has great options too. Follow me on Amazon to shop my faves lists, of which these slippers are featured in the “clothes and loungewear” list. There you have my whole grouping of items I’ve bought and swear by as well as some others I’ve taken note of to snag later. I even included home decor a lot of which was in my home posts a while back (lots of registry items I got are on there)!

This adorable tartan plaid cape/poncho look I wore out recently to visit the grounds of Gilette Castle in Connecticut. The cape is older but I linked many similar and varying options on my LIKEtoKNOW.it page. Download the app and shop all my looks easily there! I styled it with my JCrew Factory corduroys I’ve posted about on LIKEtoKNOW.it and on here (the JCrew sales are amazing also! These cords were about $20) and my Sorel winter boot faves (called the “Tofino II snow boot”). These ones aren’t heavy to wear at all like the Joan of Arc ones were that I had to return. They keep me warm and dry. My sweater is from Nordstrom and the cashmere is so soft. Finally, even the JCrew face mask is tartan plaid to match. My hat is JCrew factory as well.

Stay safe and healthy and practice self care as we ring in a new year:)

Xo,

Carolina

Hi there!

I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. I’ve been spending a lot of time in my new home of Toronto, and doing many different stay at home activities including Spell’s stay at home series, and other brands as I mentioned in my last post! I love the cooking classes (including immunity truffles, see my IG’s “isolation inspiration” highlight reel for more), exercise classes, skincare lives, and more.

One of my absolute favorite at home looks was a recent purchase from Vici Dolls called the “Positano French Terry Knit Pullover” and marching “Positano French Terry Knit Shorts.” I’m wearing the pullover in a small and the shorts in a medium (I’m a size 2 dress and 4 pant and I’m 5’6” tall). It’s so romantic and bohemian at the same time and I feel so cozy!

In the photos below I was tired of wearing joggers or sweats and sweaters so I put on my fave Spell Dahlia jumpsuit (I blogged about this piece before in the Joshua Tree Jumpsuit post) which is now ON SALE! Go snag it on their website. Share with me on IG what your fave at home looks have been!

Xo,

Carolina
