The holiday shopping season has officially begun. This past weekend has been all about shopping for the kids, but I did manage to spend some time at the Anthro sale bins to rummage through the books. I picked up a few lovely ones with colorful illustrations and patterns. I really love the Nigel Peake book of illustrations. His line drawings are so wonderful. The Secret Garden will be a sweet edition for one of the kids.

I also picked up a pack of socks (95 cents baby!) in prepration for lots of boot-wearing this season. Don’t pretend you’re not absolutely jealous of my banana socks.

The owl cuff is a gift from the sis. The owl face is a bit ominous, but I’ve been wearing it quite a bit lately.
