Deck the Halls with Sequins

'Tis the season am I right? I have almost everything I need for Thanksgiving next week (including scoring A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving on DVD - take that Apple TV), and we are heading down to the Keys for some much needed unplugging and family time in paradise before sitting down to give thanks over turkey. I was this close to decking the halls, but we are finally replacing the builders grade carpet downstairs in our home and everything will have to be moved while the new flooring is installed so I have to wait a bit longer to jingle our bells. Between the new pup chewing at the old carpet in some corners, play-doh stains from a certain toddler who shall remain nameless, and it rising up in places it.is.TIME. So, I am perfectly happy waiting to spread some Christmas cheer a little bit longer. 

Some of my favorite scenes from last year's holiday season - lots of light peeping with Lil' Miss, the Christmas Boat Parade downtown by the lake, and girl's day out at Disney Springs for the Trail of Trees. This year will look a little different - we still plan on light peeping, and taking Lil' Miss to the 2020 version of Disney Spring's festive-ness. Lots and lots of cozy loungewear at home, but I still want an excuse to bust out the sequins and velvet and by golly I will! 

Speaking of sequins, I have my eye on a few sparkly pieces that are for both lounging and for play. I even found a sparkly face mask! Because it is still 2020 after all. 

Last year, we became "that family" and all donned matching Holiday Mickey Pajama Pants, and this year's version has such a cute pop of green. Perfect for opening presents on Christmas morning or lounging around watching Christmas specials. 

I spend a lot of time in the kitchen around the holidays baking and whipping up fancy meals, and even Lil' Miss likes to join in on the fun. You can count on this apron being on repeat and did someone say cheese? And if we end up going anywhere fun, I'm drooling over this sequin romper and these velvet pants. They may need to be tucked away until next year or break them out for some bubbles on the backyard patio to feel fancy. We deserve it! I'll probably be more likely to be found in these sparkly leggings and this pullover by Free People on my couch. 

And how darling is this ornament? Such a great gift idea - it can hang on the tree and it's my favorite makeup setting spray to keep our look glowing all day or all night long.
