BLACK FRIDAY

ArtemisKorkidis-TheGirlGuide-LindsayMaddenPhotography-8.jpg

It's here!! I like Black Friday and I LOVE cyber Monday. I don't know why, maybe its the idea of sitting in your pajamas all day, coffee in hand, shopping for deals? (not that I've ever done that - I'm always at work ordering via my cell phone) I think its because I've always loved the hunt. 

HAPPY SHOPPING

PS: need help finding the perfect gift for your sister's mother-in-law? Or your best friend who has it all? I'm here for you!

NET-A-PORTER

I did a huge round up on the Net sale HERE. Sizes are selling out fast but I love this sweater. Just ordered this bra in black and pink (dying to try this pretty trend under a silk blouse). This scarf is such a pretty color and would also make the perfect gift. I know this sweater is a basic but its just SO good. My favorite jeans are 30% off!

J.Crew

This sale is so GREAT! 40% off full price and they have an amazing selection of Men's and Children's this year. LOVE this sweater. Its the perfect twist on the classic fireman style. I have these jeans and they fit so well and this color goes so well with all my gray and blush peeves for Fall/Winter. These boots are great if you're looking for a winter style. This coat in grey is !!!!! They make it every year and it still remains a classic. 

Club Monaco

Buy more, save more up to 35%! You can see my full Club Monaco sale post HERE. Their tiered sale is site wide also and such a great opportunity to pick up classic and holiday pieces for yourself and gifts. This face mist smells so good. I gave this to all the women in my family last year. If you like wearing ballet flats this pair is so comfortable. I've posted about this sweater a few times already but it really is so pretty!

Serena & Lily

These earrings are so pretty and I think I'm going to order these for Christmas! Under $40

This shirt for under $20!! I actually ordered this sweater last week - stay tuned!

We have this hide layered on top of a wool sisal and I still enjoy it every day. Its the perfect neutral combination. How fun is this throw? Gray pom poms of course!

SHOPBOPSALE-BUYMORESAVEMORE-THEGIRLGUIDE.png

I wasn't exaggerating when I said it was going to be a week of sales! I find shopbop one of the easiest sites to shop. They have great categories where they break down different looks and trends and they make it super easy to store your info and checkout (not sure my husband loves that feature-hehe). Also returns are done very quickly and are FREE! I've rounded up some of my favorites from the sale and here are a few other great buys:

  • These earrings are the perfect gift and are a STEAL at $70. Also love these and they're under $40!!
  • If you get one thing this week,  this sweater is IT. It's the steal of the season at $70 and goes with everything (especially tucked into high-wasted jeans). Also love the sleeve if you want to wear a vest. 
  • If you like the mule trend but haven't purchased a pair yet, this one is so pretty. Especially love that the color will take you into Spring!

HAPPY SHOPPING!

I have been living in these jeans! Lately high wasted is all I want to be in. Maybe its the cropped sweater trend or the fact that I love to do a full or half tuck with my tops...all I know is this pair is so comfortable. LOVE these too. My cardigan is old but I found this similar one and love this one too. When I first saw this blouse from La Vie Rebecca Taylor I immediately thought to myself - you have so many lace neutral tops. BUT this one is a wool gauze blend which I thought made it perfect for the Fall/Winter temperatures (anything to justify another pretty blush blouse!).

SHOP THE POST

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays to style! My go-tos are leather pants or a pair of corduroy jeans paired with a novelty sweater. This year I'm wearing a bordeaux velvet legging with a cashmere sweater in the same color. Such a sucker for a monochromatic look! I've curated some of my favorite pieces blow and don't forget to check out my holiday tablescape post

HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS

THEGirlGuide-LindsayMaddenPhotography-ArtemisKorkidis-3.jpg

This has been my most exciting post to write since I launched my blog last January. My hope for THE GIRL LOOK BOOK was that it would serve as a creative outlet for myself, but my dream was that it would also lead to collaboration with other brands, bloggers, and fellow female entrepreneurs. This was a dream come true. When I first set out to create a holiday "tablescape" my goal was to partner with and promote local brands and create something that was beautiful and inspirational for my followers. I first pitched the idea to Lindsay Madden, my photographer and the co founder of Miller Madden Events and as they say, the rest was history!

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. In our house it's always been about good food and family....and its always CASUAL! I love dressing up for Christmas but its also so nice to hang out in a cozy knit sweater and cords all day. This is the first year I'll be hosting in our home. We moved in about a year and a half ago and I'm looking forward to starting a new tradition (also a little nervous - cooking turkey scares me!).

When we partnered with Juliska for the tablescape, Kristina (the other half of Miller Madden Events) and I visited their showroom in Stamford, CT which also serves as their corporate headquarters. They have an amazing selection but I immediatly gravitated to a more curated "mix and matched" look of neutrals with a pop of gray (I know what you're thinking - gray is not a pop haha). I like that the pieces we chose can be used for every day or for special occasions. How amazing are these feather napkin rings?? I also love these placemats which would work for Christmas! For the florals I worked with one of my favorite new local finds, Stems + Co. Zoe brought my vision to LIFE with a magnolia and eucalyptus based garland that spanned the length of my table. The colors complimented the other elements on the table perfectly and was somehow seasonal and a touch feminine all at the same time. Scroll down for more pics, to shop my look, and to shop my gorgeous monogrammed linens c/o Monogram Mary!

I first discovered Halo Home last year while scrolling through Instagram. The combination of gray fringe and a monogram? It was love at first sight! When my friend Brooke, owner and founder of Monogram Mary said she could order and monogram them for me I was so excited! They also fun cocktail napkins which make the best hostess gifts and I love these extra large Christmas stockings which I'm thinking of ordering.

FALL FLORAL

SHOP THE POST

I was never really a hat girl until I bought my first one from Hat Attack a couple of years ago. It was similar to this style and I lived in it last Fall/Winter. If you're looking for something to take you from city to country its perfect! I also love this style.

So when I received this one I was super excited. The pom detail is so chic and I love it styled dressy or thrown on with a pair of jeans and a leather jacket. My jacket is Theory from last year but you can shop the whole (similar) look below! Click here for my necklace:)

I bought this skirt a couple of months ago when it was about 90 degrees out in September knowing (hoping) the day would come when I could wear it! I saw it and all my plaid filled days at Ralph Lauren came rushing back to me. I wore it for our family Christmas card shoot a couple of weekends ago and to a luncheon...so fun!

Happy Thursday! I feel like I haven't spoken to you guys in forever! Lots of exciting new projects in my world and I'm still working on balancing it all. I will get there! Thank you all for your support in the meantime:) 

I loved creating this LUST LIST! This sweater was the original inspiration for it and I love the muted weathered tones and the pattern. It reminds me of something you would see in a Swiss chalet - apres ski vibes! If you're looking for a versatile dress love this one and the price is great. For a layered look try a white tailored shirt or wear it as a skirt with this sweater

SURPRISE SALE ALERT

  • shopbop is having a flash sale and today is the last day! Just ordered this pair of jeans! I have a few pairs from them and they're so comfortable (also they don't get baggy after one wear)
  • This leather jacket is so versatile! It comes in three colors and the silhouette is perfect with a t-shirt and jeans or over a dress
  • This is the perfect white blouse!!!! AND on sale in the two white colors - the fit is oversized but looks best a little boxy
  • If you like a cold shoulder sweater this is for you! Love the cable knit and the color is perfect for Fall/Winter
  • Love this coat. Just sent it to a client this morning and thinking I may need it for weekends in the Berkshires! Lastly check out these! I've posted them a couple times but really love the color - cool ivory jeans are so hard to find!
