Happy December! We're finally home from our Colorado getaway and it was AMAZING. I haven't been somewhere so beautiful in such a long time and I spent every day last week marveling at the sight of mountain peaks and open skies. Everything was covered in a white dusting of fresh powder and I'm so glad I was able to meet up with Jess and play a bit in the snow.

I've had my eye on a fluffy jacket for a while and this fuzzy topper fits the bill perfectly. Just a bit of whimsy in every outfit is enough to keep dressing light and fun!

In Hazel + Scout tradition, I put together a playlist meant for hours behind the stove, magical moments with loved ones and late night joy rides (to escape the in-laws... don't worry, I won't tell). Something about newly discovered tunes (and few old standbys) is music to my ears during the holiday season.
