Hello! If you can't already tell, let me say...December has me giddy.  Going into the holidays I honestly wasn't sure how much cheer I might be able to muster but something this year has shown me is that no matter what is going on, happy is always waiting there inside ourselves.  Bring the joy wherever you go and you will follow you everywhere.

That being said, I wanted to share a few favorites from a place that always makes me smile too and that's J.Crew.  While I tend to always find something or two (or three) all throughout the year when I shop, they do holiday unlike any other.  From classic tartans to embellished cozy footwear, it just wouldn't be Christmas without a purchase or two from this preppy icon and they have some MAJOR sales going on right now.

These cozy pjs are some of my holiday favorites.  The black watch pattern is such classic and if you are doing the family pajama moment then I highly recommend this pair.  These slippers are unmistakably J.Crew and so cozy for winter.  They are perfect for around the house but are well-made enough to take a stroll outdoors as well.

These sweaters are two holiday must-haves.  The button detail on this one is so pretty and its fit makes it so easy to wear with everything from jeans and boots to a dressier skirt, heels and this necklace.  This black option offers just he right peek of plaid.  It's so classic and reminds me of spending the holiday abroad in London amid a sweet Charles Dicken's storybook scene.

Coats, hats and gloves all make for wonderful holiday gifts at different price points which is so nice.  This Chateau parka is my very favorite coat.  I bought my first one several years ago in this color and still receive compliments on it, haha.  Since then I also added the black and heather grey to my collection.  Pom pom hats and cozy scarves are the perfect pieces to pair with it and can also make for terrific gift options in and of themselves.

During the holidays (and all year long) it's all about the extras and J. Crew does it so well.  This sequined cami is one of the latest in their collection and would look gorgeous with a silk blazer, winter white jeans and a stunning pair of heels on NYE.  I also think that this headband is so adorable and would look stunning with all black, a red lip and pop of gold jewelry.  Can anyone say holiday!?

Can you tell I'm a J.Crew girl, just a little bit? Haha, if you are too, you can shop all of these picks you see here today in the thumbnails below and pick up something wonderful for yourself too.  Enjoy!

xoxo,
