Oct/Nov Favorites + What’s New Around The House

Oct/Nov Favorites + What’s New Around The House

Happy Friday friends! Okay, so as soon as I say I’m on a roll with my posting schedule I go an mess it up. Oh well, I still got three in this week and I’m happy with that, especially with the holiday coming up! Stay tuned for gift guides next week y’all!

There’s not much new around our house except I’m getting ready to host several holiday parties and trying not to panic that Thanksgiving is almost here! Are you guys surviving? Anyway, I’ll stop talking so you can check out October and November favorites! The month(s) got a little crazy so it’s a combo post this time!

1. Pool House Makeover

So I pretty much fell in love (at first sight) with this gorgeous pool house!

2. Pimm’s Cup

Our current favorite cocktail is the infamous Pimm’s Cup especially from Kindred. We loved this version from Honestly Yum to make at home!

3. Come & Eat

This lovely book from my friend Bri McCoy is SO good. I love a recipe book that reads like a novel and this would make a great hostess gift! My other go-to favorite is Bread & Wine which I’m sure you’ve heard me talk about before!

4. 7Charming Sisters

I love this new-to-me jewelry site and they are offering my readers 15% off with the code SimpleStylings15. I shared the tassel necklace and bracelet in my jewelry capsule wardrobe post last week.

5. Chic Server

I love everything about this chic server…especially the price! I used this in my dream dining room design board.

6. Fall Coastal Mantel

Y’all know I love a good coastal mantel and this is my favorite this year! Way to go Chelsea!

7. Slipcovered IKEA Sofa

This slipcovered sofa from IKEA is my new favorite obsession! Don’t be surprised if you see it pop up on a future dream design board post! It comes in a full-size sofa, a love seat and a chair.

8. Why Are Blogs Still important

I love this post about why blogs are still important from one of my favorite bloggers, Decor8. Whew! Glad to know we’re still alive and y’all are reading!

9. Gold Moccasin Loafers

I’ve never really been a loafers kinda gal but I think these gold mocs might have turned me into a convert!

10. Southern Socks

How fun are these socks (I’m a bit partial to the Y’all and North Carolina ones) and wouldn’t they be a great stocking stuffer…pun intended!

11. Betsy Benn Personalized Christmas Ornaments

This adorable company from the UK makes these personalized wood ornaments and I love them! We got one that says Hogan 2017 and I can’t wait to put it on our tree (when it goes up AFTER Thanksgiving!). Follow along on Instagram and I’ll share it there soon!

Well there you have it folks! Coming up next are gift guides, our trip to Alabama and a fun little secret project I’ve been working on behind the scenes. Hint, hint, it involves a little party and holiday decor!

Cheers!
