This past week has been a little hectic to say the least. Between work, last-minute shopping & just general Christmas in New York activities – there hasn’t been a lot of spare time. I can barely believe Christmas is in 10 days!! On Friday, I quickly got the chance to meet with the lovely Christine and we shot the above outfit photos together. Friday was a busy one so I kept it simple in camel and black and got some more wear out of my new shoes. I’m living in this stylish but seriously comfy brogues!

Before I shot these photos in the city, I headed out to Long Island to visit the GiGi New York offices. I have been such a huge fan of this brand before I moved to New York so it was amazing to be able to visit their factory & showroom. If you’re not familiar with the brand, but love pretty journals/datebooks and bags…then you’re going to love it! I don’t know about you, but I go through at least 10 journals in a year (I’m addicted to my phone, but still need to write everything down on paper) so I was in heaven seeing exactly how everything was manufactured. I picked up this metallic one and also have my eye on ALL of the below:

What’s cool too is that you cN personalize everything by getting your initials monogrammed onto your new bag/datebook. I always love little touches like that.

Hope you’re all having a lovely week!

Stylishly Yours,
