Holiday Week of Chic: From our House to Yours and Minted Giveaway

Good Morning, Friends!!

It looks like we may have a white Christmas here in Colorado.  We woke up to about about a foot of fresh snow in Denver so I am currently debating if I am going to be at all productive today or hibernate for the rest of winter (or at least the day!).  

If you have been following along for a little while, you know I have a bit of an obsession with Minted.  They helped us outfit our home (here) and I have used them for our Christmas cards every year (a little about that here).  This year was no different!! So obviously, Lacey and I didn't think this giveaway would be complete without a little something from our favorite online stationary and gift store.

Today's giveaway is $125 to Minted which is good through 2017!!  So you can get a head start on next year's holiday cards, New Year's cards, wedding stationary, or home decor... whatever your fancy.  Happy Holidays from Lacey, Minted, and me to you!!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend! Happy Holidays from our house to yours

Love,

The Millers

Hi Guys!

I hope you are having a lovely week.  I put real clothes on for the first time yesterday - and today am back in my p.j.'s .... the doctor said this flu is lasting 10 days - 3 weeks and wow, am I red nosed vision in sweats.  My poor husband.  

Right before Thanksgiving we took pictures for our holiday card(s).  My whole family was in town so before Jonny, Stanley and I took our pictures we were able to take a few with my sisters, and their significant others and my mom as well which we haven't done in a long time.  Growing up we would take holiday photos every year, but actually getting the holiday card itself out was always a big task.

The past three years Jonny and I have used Minted and I am more amazed by the way they ease the process every year! I signed in to create our card and was trying to think of our list from last year and was happily surprised that they had it (and the addresses) saved.  They offer free pre addressing, with the cutest design options.  And you can even order personalized stamps or stamps that match your card (so easy!). We selected this design but were torn because we love this one too.

My dress is from Patterns and Pops $68.  I just love the sweet bows on the back - it is so comfy and would also be great with tights and boots as it gets colder.  Jonny's shirt is on major sale $25!  Stanley's bow tie is from a local doggy boutique (Two Pals and Pup), but in case you aren't in the area, I found a similar one here.  Shop the rest of my look and a few of my favorite red dresses (all under $100!) below.

Have a great day!

Holiday Card Ready

Happy Monday Friends!

I can't believe Christmas is almost here! It really hit me last night.  I had big plans to finish my Christmas shopping this weekend, but got hit with a nasty cold and ended up wrapped up in the house all weekend.  It turns out it was the perfect weekend to stay cozy inside since it was pretty snowy here.  However, I am rushing a little today to order the last of my gifts to make sure they get here before Christmas (here is a helpful guide for shipping deadlines coming up).

Jonny and I weren't sure that we wanted to do a Holiday card this year.  Last year we did our first card as a new family and it feels like I was so organized and ordered them almost immediately after we got our wedding photos.  This year, time got the best of me, and I was worried we missed our opportunity to order them (turns out they can still be ordered, we use Minted - they can still be delivered by 12/18 if ordered by the end of today with code SHIP). I also love that Minted gives you the option to have the envelopes pre-addressed and they have tons of adorable address designs (which saves a lot of time and is perfect for me considering I don't have the prettiest handwriting). 

I stopped in J.Crew Factory ( currently 50% off everything plus extra 15% off and free shipping with code Jolly) last week and saw these pants for Jonny which matched my pants from there that I had just ordered (I was probably a little more excited than the average person, but they are really cute!).  He has mentioned, more than once, that they are the warmest pants he has ever worn.  I have also been wearing this coat from there (also on sale) a ton!

My shirt is sold out, but also love this one and this one.  I tied a bow under the collar with some extra ribbon I had from wrapping to add a little more texture, color, and cheer to my outfit.  I gave Jonny his fleece (40% off with code getgifts) as an early Christmas present and he hasn't stopped wearing it since it is so cozy (I have even put it on a few times it is so soft I just can't resist!).

If you are in the Denver area over the holidays and looking for some fun photos of you and your loved ones, I often work with Corey from Corey Anthony photography... he always captures such fun moments of Jonny and me and I can't thank him enough!  Can't wait to get my whole family home and get a few more with everyone together!

Have a wonderful week!!
