I adore a man who wears a pocket square. It elevates his whole situation. They’re not just for formal situations and can be the best way to show a little personality.

Pocket squares are the easiest gift to give. Here are a few of my favorites.

Which is your favorite? I really like that blue floral, the white ones with colored edges (only $20 btw and lots of color options), and the gingham.

Working up a few more gift guides this week for the late shoppers (like me). This one is a favorite of mine because it’s all southern made. In fact, all but two are made by Charleston makers.

TGIF! Here’s a small round up of some of my life lately.

 

My long time dream of having a pink tree has come true thanks to Treetopia. So fun. How did we ever manage without one?

Loving how my bone inlay tray from Furbish looks containing all of my wrapping supplies this time of year.

One of my go to gifts this year (yet again) is Jane Pope Jewelry. Here they are all wrapped up and ready to go.

If you’re in Charleston you should stop by the Smith St Pop Up Shop in the little carriage house behind 27 Smith St. It’s adorable. Here’s a little space snap of Tink & Tiger things.

Had to have a real tree to go with our pink tree. The kids had a lot of opinions about how it would go down this year and they wanted colorful. So colorful they got. You might recognize our tree skirt from one of my outfit posts earlier this year.

Got out the Christmas china. Every year my mother in law gifts me another set and I love how they all are different. We are up to 8 sets now. How pretty is this set?

Making changes around here and here’s a color sneak peek!

This little vignette is right by our front door. I share this today because I just found that pink lady print online and I get a lot of questions about it.

A winter color combo favorite for today, navy and burgundy.

I LOVE this toggle coat from Old Navy. It has a slimming fit and looks beautiful in person. Plus it’s warm, which has been needed with this cold weather that Charleston’s been getting.

Under my coat is this Old Navy turtleneck sweater. It comes in a few different colors and is on sale, too.

My ballet flats are also Old Navy. $18, lots of colors.
