One of the most endearing shapes or forms associated with the holiday season is the star.  Whether it's symbolic of the star guiding the three kings or the light of the world bringing a sense of hope and peace this season,the star is deeply associated with the holiday tradition. There are plenty of beautiful options used for decorations, packaging or the perfect topper for the Christmas tree. And of course,look up for some star gazing....and enjoy the twinkling lights wherever you maybe as you celebrate the holidays. {I feel like singing the song or saying the rhyme!} Wishing you and your family all the peace and love this holiday season!

We may not experience a white Christmas often here in California, but these beautiful images are getting me in the mood. The photos are by the Sydney-bassed amazing photographer, Pia Jane Bijkerk, discovered via Odessa May. From still life to her travel photos, they're truly captivating. Plus she captured two of my favorite images in one photo, birds and Amsterdam.

Holiday Season Promotion

Mammoth Lakes

Dreamin' of a winter wonderland? Or maybe you're enjoying summertime, for our friends in the southern hemisphere. I haven't been around snow in a while, so it was nice to visit Mammoth Lakes during Thanksgiving holiday. This little ski town in the eastern Sierras has transformed to a ski resort destination in recent years. Just remembering those snow boarding or skiing college trips, more like rolling down the hill for me. And I'm definitely not use to the cold any more with our endless summer this year. At least we're finally gettin' some rain at home!We definitely need it in Southern Cal. Well, since it's the last week of shopping before Christmas, enjoy 20% OFF ALL ORDERS with code: MERRY. We have a lovely selection for last minute gift ideas.Have a good weekend!

I love this gorgeous photo of these birds just hangin' on the branches, just as natural for them as being in flight (vuela!). It reminds me that as much as I love to be on the go and definitely with plenty of things to do, just tryin' to check off the list that needs to get done (especially with the holiday season)... it's definitely nice to just take a break, cherish the down time and just be. I know you may have to do lists this weekend, but have a restful weekend!
