Christmas eve is by far my favorite day of the year – the excitement, anticipation, being surrounded by family and of course the holiday cheer. It’s such a joyous time. This year we’re hosting for the first time, which means mixing old traditions to make our very own. This year we decided to keep it simple and enjoy what matters most – appreciating the loved ones that are in our lives.


I hope all of you take some time to relax, rest and enjoy a wonderful holiday with friends, family and loved ones!


Wishing you the happiest of holidays – I hope it’s magical!

happy holidays!

This year has been unforgettable – it’s definitely been all about following my heart and what I love. It’s been an incredible ride. From finally feeling as though I’ve found my voice right here on Sacramento Street, to completely changing career paths – the love and support that I’ve got on both ends is priceless. I honestly didn’t think that I’d be where I am today, and let me tell you, I’ve never been happier. Thank you all for always being there for me, you really don’t know how much it means to me.

As this year closes, I’m ready to take on next years adventures – whatever they might be. I have a feeling it will be a wild ride.

Next week I’ve put together some fun posts with of few of my best friends here in the blogosphere – they will be sharing their personal inspiration boards similar to my monday morning posts. So if you’re relaxing around a fire or laying on a beach, then pop back over to read their incredible posts. I want everything in the few I’ve received so far.

We’re off to Portland to spend quality time with both my family and Eric’s. I can’t wait to sip hot chocolate, gather with loved ones and help my mom pack up our house (she’s moving to SF!).

I hope all of you have a wonderful holiday with your family and friends. May it be filled with lots of love!

xx, Caitlin

Tis the weekend to finally get my Christmas shopping started and done. I’ve got my list, checked it twice and I’m ready to hit the San Francisco streets. I think comfy shoes, a nice big scarf and a top knot are in order to get everything accomplished in two days.

My favorite part will be wrapping up all the gifts with beautiful ribbon – this year we’re keeping it neutral with a touch of silver.

What are all of you up to this weekend? Have you purchased all of your holiday gifts? I feel incredibly behind this year.

A few of my favorite posts from this week:

* A little holiday sparkle to keep you smiling.

* These gift guides have me swooning over everything.

* I’m coveting these shoes . . .

* These healthy eats are perfect for weeknights.

* I’m following Sarah’s lead by shopping locally.

Hope all of you have a lovely weekend – I’m certainly going to cherish this last weekend before Christmas!

xx, Caitlin

I’m Loving + a Winner . . .

Thursday, December 1, 2011 / Comments (9)

This year I think I’m going to try something non-traditional for a Christmas tree – we’re going to place it in a jar. When I came across this image I fell madly in love. Since we can’t fit a big tree in our apartment, I think this is the perfect compromise.

I’ve been having trouble finding spices in my cabinet – love the way these are labeled!

I’ve been in an all black mood lately – it’s probably due to the cooler temperatures.

Now for the winner of the Minted giveaway . . . CONGRATS Elissa from Ebb & Flow! I’ll be emailing you soon with your gift card.

Hope all of you had a wonderful first day of December!
