Hi friends! Thought it would be fun to give you a Christmas home tour of the House of Leo. For those who are new to my blog and don’t know how my blog got it’s name well it’s pretty simple. Summer was born in August so her sign is a Leo and Leo is an abbreviation of our last name. I absolutely LOVE transforming our home for the holidays. My Dad always loved Christmas and I’ve kept his love of the holidays alive in our home. Yesterday marked 15 years since his passing so I’m dedicating this post to him. Read More
CLOSET STAPLE: THE FLANNEL SHIRT
Here’s a fashion trivia for ya. What’s an item in your closet that you break out at the first sign of fall and don’t put away until the absolute end of winter? You wear them layered, alone, to bed? You could borrow your husband’s version and it would totally be adorable? (ok I’m not that great at creating trivia questions obviously lol) Yup it’s the good ol flannel shirt. Classic, warm, comfy and total closet necessity. Read More
THE PERFECT RED SWEATER FOR CHRISTMAS
I’m back! What a nightmare. No idea what happened but my blog was having serious issues and was down since Sunday. Not the week for this to happen. After a ton of frustration sitting on the phone (7 phone calls) with technical support it’s finally up and running. I’m not a tech person so this was so stressful. This mama needs a glass or jug of spiked egg nog after this ordeal! Anyway, I won’t bore you with the behind the scene of what goes into running a blog any longer. Let’s get into the perfect red sweater for Christmas Day!Read More
STOCKING STUFFER GIFT GUIDE + THE CHARITY I SUPPORT
So I love shopping (clearly lol) but I like really really love shopping for stocking stuffers. Some people dread them but honestly I think you can add such personal fun touches to them. So much more thought goes into creating them and rather than hate on them and throwing senseless things in them take some time to think of the things that person always uses or things they normally wouldn’t buy for themselves. Those ideas always help me come up with thoughtful stockings. And let me tell you I do A LOT of stockings. Erik, my mom, Summer and my mother in law. Plan early, keep your eyes open all year long and you’d be surprised how easy it is to fill that stocking.Read More
TOPSHOP PUFFER JACKET + SPERRY BOOTS
So this is the second coat of the week but a completely different look this time. If you missed it this post has my favorite fit and flare overcoat. But nothing says winter like a puffer coat and Sperry snow boots. If it has a furry hood, all weather material and a slim fit then chances are I’m gonna be all about it. These coats are a must have for snow and rain and just getting your snow bunny look down to a T. Read More
