\"Bits<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I had the nicest time away on the West Coast. We spent the majority of it holed up in Malibu at my boyfriend’s parents’ house with his family and the rest of the time at his house in LA. I mostly lived in cozy sweaters, easy tees, and leggings. I got dressed up maybe twice, for Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. It was a nice, slow week with extremely warm weather (meanwhile my plants were all freezing to death back in Charleston) for a lot of the trip. We relaxed a lot. A Christmas Eve hike. Walks on the beach. Monopoly (and wine) at night. Multiple trips to one of our favorite restaurants (Taverna Tony)<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We met up with two of my girlfriends (Jacey<\/a>, Mally<\/a>) for double dates. He went surfing. I read<\/a> or went running. We were outside a lot and saw some pretty epic sunsets. I’m back in Charleston now and am excited for a jam packed week… work is strangely busy for January (usually this is my slow month!) and one of my best friends visits on Friday! But also: I really, really missed my cat. PS – this diary style blog post feels very 2013, no? I kinda like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bits & Pieces from Break<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Christmas<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A Christmas Eve hike. Wearing my favorite Addison Bay pullover<\/a> and Tory Sport leggings.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Ted<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We went to church on Christmas Eve. I wore this Ted Baker dress which came in my last Stitchfix box. It’s available for purchase here<\/a> and here!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tell<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A really, really good book.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Glasses<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Sunsets<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Monopoly<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I am obviously the cat when we play Monopoly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A new favorite white tee. <\/a>I paired it with this necklace <\/a>from Courtney’s<\/a> collab!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Sunset<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"Wyeth<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Visiting my friend Jacey’s<\/a> store: Wyeth!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dorsey<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cannot get enough of these Dorsey earrings.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Crudo<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

NYE at our fav spot in Santa Monica — Crudo e Nudo!<\/a> The uni nori was particularly special. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
