I first read Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood in college and I was SHOOK. Now there’s going to be a sequel??
Did you read Dear Prudence in Slate last week? Talk about Monster-in-Law! Handmade gifts are the best gifts!
Stella McCartney is fabulous and now she’s launching a UN charter for sustainable fashion! What a boss babe!
Dry, cracked hands this winter? I’ve been there (still there now). Here are ways to combat that.
I know I need to do another closet cleanout soon. Here’s a helpful article on cringey things that you shouldn’t keep.

I started Mindy Kaling’s Why Not Me? and it’s been a pretty funny read so far!
I finished Never Let You Go by Chevy Stevens and it was SOO good! I can’t wait to write the review for it!
Every night, I read a few pages of Bad Girls Throughout History: 100 Remarkable Women Who Changed the World by Ann Shen. It’s free if you download it on Amazon Kindle!
My next book is After You by Jojo Moyes which is a sequel to Me Before You.

I’m on a shopping ban at the moment because I went a little too crazy during Black Friday/Cyber Monday. BUT if I weren’t, I would buy this Coach Swagger Carry All - it’s on sale for almost half off!!
I know it’s still November but my mind’s already on what I’m wearing for NYE. This dress is definitely an option.
How cute is this bag? I love the arrow closure - so unique!
