For this latte I am using The Bungalow Vanilla Chai tea bags as they are the perfect creamy, spicy base for our latte and it simplifies our recipe.

2. Remove the tea bag and add the Organic Raw Cane Sugar and stir until dissolved.

Hello my lovlies!

Welcome to the 12 Days of Pinkmas, which is this my own little version of blogmas and will consist of 12 enchanting posts for the holiday season!

With the arrival of December the nights are growing longer, carrying with them is the softest whisper of winter’s magic, making me feel like retreating inward to the comforting embrace of my favorite blanket and my reading nook.

My favorite way to cozy up with a book is with a spiced vanilla chai in hand and the dreamiest holiday romance novel that is sure to fill me with a feeling of joy and warmth.

My December To Be Read is full of whimsical holiday romance perfect for the season with a bit of nostalgia with the last book on this month’s list. It’s a reread for me, but it’s an old favorite that some of you may recognize yourselves and it still has holiday themes in the beginning!

So brew up your favorite holiday drink and let’s get right into this month’s titles!

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹♡

♡ December by Nicole Pyland – If you remember two past tbr’s I had October and November on it, but now it’s time for the final book in the New Orleans series, which drops December 2nd by the way. This book follows Dana, a caterer that is working on a film set that wants to be part of the industry, but settled for serving people food just to be part of it. When a movie based on her friend’s love story (the characters from the book March) is being made in New Orleans, she’s assigned to be an assistant for one of the lead actresses who happens to be a major diva. Samara is the actress and she’s been keeping a secret. The production she’s working on isn’t the blockbuster she’s used to and she’s feeling like she made a mistake. It can’t get worse when the other actress in the film drops out at the last minute. Dana’s dream just might finally come true when she’s asked to play the role and maybe there’s more to Samara than just the diva attitude.

♡ Breakup Buddies by J.J. Arias & Bryce Oakley – This book is a cozy holiday romcom about two women who meet on a heartbreak anonymous app. When their holiday meet ups stretch from Miami to Colorado to LA, the long distance and fear of losing their friendship stop them from giving their relationship a try. Now they have to decide if love is worth the chance.

♡ Christmas in Miracle Valley by A.J. Marchant – This book follows Juniper Kringle who is next in line to take over her family’s business. Her one goal in life is to sit next to her father in the sleigh on Christmas Eve and eventually take over the reins. But first she has to get through her last few weeks of the traditional Kringle solo trip and so far it’s uneventful, until her car breaks down. Suddenly Juniper finds herself in the middle of nowhere, Miracle Valley. A place that it seems forgotten all about christmas, which the unhelpful head elf, Humphrey, points out in one of his unpredictable pop in visits.

♡ Hoax for the Holidays by Bel Blackwood – This one follows a freelance artist, Isla, who is at risk of losing her family home to developers. Her solution to this problem? To pretend to be fake married to the frosty CEO, Grace. It’s supposed to be all business between them to save Isla’s home, but as the holiday season kicks up, their fake romance gets a dusting of real romance. With baking, cozy fireside conversations, and stolen kisses under the mistletoe, how much of their marriage is real or fake?

♡ Meant to be Christmas by Jamey Moody – This book follows Kendall, who leaves behind her NYC apartment, for a month long stay at her best friend’s with hopes of enjoying a festive December instead of a lonely one. Her best friend also has a husband who happens to have a best friend of his own coming to stay, Marley. Over the years Kendall and Marley have heard many things about the other from their friends, though they had yet to meet until this moment. Feeling like they already know so much about the other from stories, there’s an immediate spark. With a flurry of holiday parties coming up, Marley proposes that she and Kendall pose as each other’s date.

♡ Invasion of the Boy Snatchers: The Clique Series by Lisi Harrison – This is the little bit of nostalgia in my December TBR that some may remember. Lately I’ve been on a kick of rereading The Clique Series as it’s my absolute favorite and is the whole reason I got into writing fanfiction and blogging all those years ago. Though sometimes I do still think about starting a new Clique fic with my head cannon on AO3.

This book takes place right after the Holiday season where Massie and Claire end up becoming roommates while the guesthouse is being renovated, but that’s not the only thing Massie is dealing with. Alicia’s cousin Nina shows up from Spain and she’s definitely not the awkward nerd she used to be. With Nina moving in on Massie’s territory and all of the Briarwood boys, including Massie’s crush, Massie is ready to toss her out of Westchester like last year’s Sevens Jeans.

⋆𐙚₊˚⊹♡

I’m very excited for this month’s tbr simply because I just adore holiday themed things that fill me with a warm, cozy feeling!

PS: If you’re enjoying the aesthetic of Pinkmas here but want a glimpse behind the aesthetic, I’m doing a more casual, everyday version of Blogmas on my personal blog this year! It’s where I talk about the ins/outs and chaos of everyday life, and all the less-than-aesthetic moments of the season. Click here to go over there now and check it out!

a midsummer night with you ♡ 12 days of pinkmas

The sound of the cicadas sing over the silence of night — their song the soundtrack for the midsummer night — as you sway gently on the porch swing with your most favorite person.

She’s looking off in the distance as you swing, lost in thought, a soft smile playing on her face that calms the anxious voice often in your head. It’s that type of beautiful smile that brightens up her face, giving you a glimpse into her soul.

You’re completely absorbed in her presence, the way she effortlessly illuminates the world with her beauty — both inside and out. The gentle rhythm of the swing lulls you into a state of peaceful bliss, as if time has stopped for just a moment.

You take a deep breath, inhaling the scent of freshly cut grass and summer blooms, the fragrance dancing with the notes of the evening dew. It’s in these quiet moments, when the world seems to slow down, that you truly appreciate the beauty of life — that you’re grateful you stayed.

As you glance over at her, you’re struck by the way the moonlight dances across her face, casting a soft glow around her making her look as though she were an angel on earth. A gentle breeze tickles the trees as the crickets join the cicadas in their song, creating a symphony of summer.

She looks up, meeting your gaze with eyes that hold an overwhelming amount of love— and suddenly you’re lost in them — warm amber pools you find yourself never wanting to look away from. You can feel the warmth emanating from them — enveloping you with a love you never thought you’d experience.

In that moment, you realize that she is the one that inspires your every work — she’s in every poem, every song, every painting. She has the key to the very depths of your soul — your entire being. Her smile alone sparks the fire within you, fuelling your creativity and passion in a way no one else ever has.

You close your eyes and whisper a silent thank you to the universe for finally bringing her into your life — divine timing on your side. It’s in her eyes, you find solace — a place in this chaotic world.

You find pure and simple love — a love that transcends time and words — a love that fills you with so much emotion you almost want to burst into tears.

It’s in these quiet nights with her, beneath the stars that glitter the sky above, that you realize she isn’t just meant to be a chapter in your book, but a soul intertwined with your own. You realize how truly fortunate you are to have found each other — as though every tiny moment throughout your lives were tying you together this entire time — an invisible string leading you directly to her.

Together, you watch the stars twinkle above, knowing that this simple moment in time is just one of many in your lives together. And with each passing night, you know you’ll continue to write the chapters of your love together, with every word a tender kiss on the pages.

sunsets ♡ sapphic musings ౨ৎ 12 days of pinkmas

The breeze caresses your skin, carrying the intoxicating scent of salt and sand from the ocean. Gentle waves crash against the shore, a moment of serene tranquility envelopes you as you’re lost in thought.

The beach has always been your happy place — freeing and calm — one of the only happy memories from a rocky childhood. It’s a place where worries get left behind and a feeling of complete bliss takes over — where the cool, salt air kisses your cheeks to let you know you’re safe — you can breathe again.

A place to watch breathtaking sunsets — a reason to be grateful for those little moments in life —

The sound of laughter filling the air frees you of being in your head — the light, musical sound igniting a fire within your soul.

And there she is, just a few steps away —wind playfully dancing through her hair, as she collects shells with a contagious joy — you can’t help the smile that begins to spread across your face as you watch on.

In that luminous golden hour, as the sun begins its descent, she turns to you with that smile — the one where her smile reaches her eyes causing those adorable crinkles that fill your stomach with 10,000 butterflies —

and she presents the prettiest shell she has found, as if it were a precious gift from the depths of the ocean. It is in that very moment, when the sun’s warm embrace casts a magical glow surrounding the two of you, that you realize she’s what makes it all worth it —

and you want to never want to spend a single sunset without her again.

🎀 The Wait is Over – Nicole Pyland

This is book six in the Holiday series.

Scarlet Campbell’s friends had all coupled off, and it had happened this year. All five of them had found love while Scarlet had continued to go back and forth about coming out to her family, and on top of that, she still couldn’t talk to women. Every time she tried, she choked. She got nervous. She said something stupid. As a result, she was still a single nerd who worked as a data analyst and did coding on the side.

Dakota Wagner was new to the marketing team of a software company, tasked with building a customer community. To do that, though, she needed data. When Dakota was sent Scarlet’s way, she found the woman endlessly adorable, so she wanted to get to know more about her other than her fascination with sugar and numbers. In Scarlet’s eyes, Dakota was sexy, smart, and would have no problem finding a girlfriend easily, so Scarlet didn’t think she’d have a chance. Little did she know that Dakota was exactly who she needed in her life to get the courage to be more herself, conquer her fears, and finally come out to her family.

🎀 Rekindled – Erica Lee

After getting married right out of college, Jordan and Spencer Barlowe were sure their love would last a lifetime. Unfortunately, life didn’t work out that way and they’ve spent the last ten years apart. The only connection they have left is their teenage daughter.

When Jordan travels from her current home in Florida back to Pennsylvania so her daughter, Penny, can stay with her mom and Jordan can attend the first indoor track and field meet hosted by her alma mater, she ends up spending a lot more time with her ex-wife than she originally planned.

Is Christmas magic (and some intervening from their teenage daughter) enough to bring Jordan and Spencer back together or is it too late?

🎀 The Christmas Inheritance – Addison Clarke

Charlie Monroe loves everything about Baxter Tree Farm. From the smell of the pine trees to the shimmer of Christmas lights, Charlie is at home on the farm. Having managed the farm since graduating high school, Charlie considers herself an expert on all things Christmas trees. Her dream is to continue to grow the place she loves so much and make it a must visit place in Maine.

But when the owner dies just before Christmas and leaves half the farm to Charlie, the last thing she expects is the other new owner to be her high school rival. And for her to still look so damn beautiful.

Delaney Baxter doesn’t know the first thing about owning a Christmas tree farm. After living in Florida since college, it has been years since Delaney has seen snow or even bothered to put up a tree for the holidays. She’s reluctant to go back to her hometown to settle her aunt’s affairs. And when she finds out Charlie also inherited half of the farm, Delaney is ready to leave town as soon as possible.

After calling a truce for the holidays, Delaney slowly begins to realize that Charlie isn’t the villain she’d remembered her to be. As for Charlie, she’s wondering why Delaney looks so perfectly at home sitting in the kitchen. Can these two former rivals learn to work together in life and love? Or will their Christmas inheritance tear them further apart?

🎀 The Christmas Committee – Lily Seabrooke

With property developer Michael Landgrave trying to buy out the small-town center and pave it over, the town’s best hope is their Christmas Committee revitalizing the old Christmas festival the town used to be famous for. Unfortunately, Piper is the only member of the committee.

But when aloof legal writer Lyra Simmons visits town to spend the holidays away after a breakup, and Piper invites herself as her welcoming committee, a new friendship—and an accidental fake relationship—might just save Castle Hollow.

If Piper can get herself together. Frankly, it doesn’t seem likely.

🎀 The Christmas Catch – Clare Lyndon

Two stranded travellers. One secret crush. Can they make it home without falling in love?

Thrown together when their plane conks out and a blizzard rolls in, Morgan Scott and her childhood friend Ali Bradford are on a mission to make it from Glasgow to Devon in time for Christmas.

The catch? Roads and trains are up the spout, Morgan’s patience is running low, and Ali has had a secret crush on Morgan since forever. But she can keep a lid on over two decades of unrequited love. Particularly when they keep having to share a bed. Absolutely no problem at all.

As Morgan and Ali inch south, they discover more about themselves and each other. This is one twisty road trip that takes them places they’ve never been before, and might just change their lives forever.

🎀 Twice Upon a Christmastime – Addison Clarke

Twins Jones and Mallory Garner never expected the holidays to be so climactic.

Ice queen Jones is the Vice President of Smithfield Marketing, a high profile marketing firm in the heart of NYC. She’s risen to the top of her game by not caring about the people she steps on along the way. Love isn’t on her radar; that next big promotion is though. With the announcement of her boss’s retirement, Jones was fully expecting to slide right into the presidential position she’s been dreaming of for years. But with her career suddenly in limbo, she begins to question her future.

The always sunny Mallory is the lead trainer at Paws on a Mission. She opened the organization with Mason Mackenzie and can’t imagine working anywhere else. Mostly because Mallory’s friends call her a human golden retriever, which means she fits right in at work. Mallory’s dedication to her job means she hasn’t had a vacation in years. Heck, she’s not even had a date in who knows how long. After striking out with love before, Mallory has no desire to get hurt again.

When Jones suggests that they swap places for a few weeks before Christmas, Mallory agrees to do a switch-a-roo one more time. The last thing either of them expects is to fall for someone in the other’s world. How do they explain what they’ve done to the people they’ve grown to care for? And how do they go back to their old lives now?

🎀 Make Her Wish Come True – A.L. Brooks

A lesbian romance where the realest thing about a fake relationship is all the possibilities.

Abby Baxter’s burning ambition to be a reporter gets a boost when her journalist friend offers her a deal: Fake-date a woman for a story she’s writing on finding love, and she’ll swing Abby a co-writing credit. It’s a dream come true after so long looking for her big break. For years, life and raising her half-sister have gotten in the way.

Erica Goode works two jobs while all her spare energies are focused on her eight-year-old daughter. She would love a social life, but who has time? A deal to be wined and dined if she fakes a relationship sounds fun. Although, it’d help if she wasn’t attracted to her date quite so much. Oh, and if the woman wasn’t averse to children. Really, there’s no way anything can come of it. Right?

Is it possible to get what you wish for, if you’re willing to give it a try?

🎀 All Wrapped Up in You – T.B. Markinson & Adrian J. Smith

A saboteur. A bookstore in trouble. A writer on the verge of ruin.

After a painful divorce, Mathilda “Mat” Kincaide has one clear vision. Ascend the throne of her family’s cherished chain of bookstores. Yet a mysterious troublemaker lurks in the heart of her store, intent on derailing Mat’s every ambition. She can’t be distracted, even if the new hire with her sizzling librarian appearance and saucy glances tempts Mat to bend her no relationship rule.

Camdyn Stone is a gifted writer. Or at least she was. With a looming deadline, Camdyn must complete a manuscript before Christmas or face financial ruin. Working at Kincaide Books is a refuge for this self-doubting one-hit-wonder. If only Camdyn could find inspiration for her next book in someone other than her sexy new boss.

In a whimsical bookstore, with eccentric patrons and a snarky cat, Mat and Camdyn must work together to save the Kincaide legacy.

But will they find love along the way?

Join Mat and Camdyn on a heartfelt journey where love unfolds, passions flare, hearts collide, and the quest for true love takes root in the most unexpected of places. In this captivating sapphic romance novel, love weaves a tale with an intensity that transcends all boundaries.

A Very Merry Pinkmas ♡ Blogmas Day 3

Hello my Sugarplum Darlings!

December is one of my all time favorite months out of the year as everything is much more magical and festive. The air is brisk, the lights are twinkling, Christmas magic is everywhere you turn, and there’s joy on everyone’s faces!

Though I must say one of my absolute favorite things about December is decorating for Christmas. Getting a lovely tree, coming up with a dreamy decor theme, and purchasing new delicate ornaments brings me so much happiness.

This year for Christmas I have once again decided to go for a very ‘Pinkmas’ themed holiday! I just adore pastel pinks, rose golds, nutcracker inspired, and vintage decor for Christmas as it just looks so angelic and dreamy.

I’m ecstatic to share my holiday decor with you Sugarplum Darlings this year!

So grab your favorite fluffy Christmas blanket, a warm cup of peppermint bark tea, and enjoy this enchanting sneak peak of my whimsical Pinkmas Winter Wonderland!

For quite some time, I’ve either had a Barbie pink Christmas tree or a white one and every tree I’ve ever had was only ever 4 feet. So this year I not only decided to keep up my white tree, but also finally get a green 6 foot tree! Yes I decided to be extra this Pinkmas and have two trees.

I also decided to flock the green tree to make it that much more dreamy and bring the magic of delicate snowflakes inside.

Being that I purchased a new tree, and a taller one, I simply needed to purchase new ornaments as well.

In addition to the Simply Shabby Chic ornaments, hand blown vintage hearts, and macaron ornaments already hanging gracefully on my white tree; I went out and found some gorgeous extras to create the most enchanting pinkmas.

I not only found some darling little ornaments at Walmart for a wonderful price, but I also found a beautiful 40 count ornament set at Target that perfectly suited my aesthetic of blush pink, silver, and rose gold!

I thought they would just look so elegant hanging from my newly flocked tree.

Not only did I turn both trees into a pinkmas wonderland, but I also turned my desk into a whimsical wonderland as well!

Placing my darling blush pink nutcracker next to my Eiffel Tower and my Too Faced Grande Hotel Cafe, I creating the beginnings of an ethereal pastel Christmas scene. For an added light touch, I placed my Simply Shabby Chic snow globe in front of the Too Faced hotel. Isn’t it such a dreamy snow globe?

I also left some of my usual decor up like my light up Paris sign, my Royal Albert teapot, and a dainty pot of fake flowers. I just felt it tied everything together to make it even more magical looking.

The last thing I added was my Simply Shabby Chic feather wreath and a string of red, green, and white lights to have a hint of a traditional Christmas decor!

November Favorites ♡ Blogmas Day 2

img_0148

Hello my Sugarplum Darlings!

As it’s officially December and the start of a brand new enchanting month, I thought it would be a lovely idea to share a few of the items I loved throughout November. It honestly feels as though last month flew by us in a second!

Despite how quickly it went by, I still had 5 items that I adored all month long!

Snowflake Dividers Stock Vector. Image Of Christmas, Design - 17253981 within Snowflake Page Divider

♡ Henri Bendel Suite 712 Rollerball – I purchased the Suite 712 rollerball in the beginning of the month using my Henri Bendel Alist reward. Being that I had yet to try Suite 712, I was very excited to get it. Especially being that Bendel is sadly closing soon. The scent is absolutely delightful! It’s a delicate scent that’s just so elegant and classy. I really recommend picking one up before they close!

Processed with VSCO with t1 preset

♡ Blush Pink Bow Slippers – As I’m sure you Darlings can already tell, I adore anything blush pink and these slippers are no different. I received these dainty bow slippers for my birthday and have been wearing them everyday since. They’re just so cozy and soft!

Processed with VSCO with hb1 preset

♡ Too Faced Christmas Dreams Palette – Every year I love to collect the Christmas palettes that Too Faced puts out, so I was beyond happy to receive this one as an early birthday present! Throughout last month this palette became a staple in my everyday makeup looks. The eye shadows are just so dreamy and the perfect shades for holiday makeup looks.

img_0139

♡ Too Faced The Smell of Christmas Melted Matte Lipstick Set – This melted matte lipstick set was one of my favorite things I got for my birthday! First of all, the scents of each lipstick is amazing and the shades are so pretty. I found myself favoring Pumpkin Spice and Cinnamon Bear, which is the perfect matte holiday red.

img_0140

♡ Bonne Chance Collections Plaid Dress – My last favorite item last month is this darling plaid dress I purchased from Bonne Chance Collections! It’s such a gorgeous shade of pink and I absolutely adore the collar on it. It makes me think of dreamy vintage dressed. I also love the fact that it has long sleeves as I can pair it with some tights and faux fur coat while still being warm in the colder weather!
