Happy last day of November, sweet friends!
Pretty sure like 5 minutes ago, I was saying that I couldn’t believe it was already November and just like that, tomorrow is December. WHAT. I can’t keep up.
OK, a few things. I am launching a new weekly series on my Instagram Stories today! It’s called Find It For Me Friday, which means I’ll be acting as your personal shopper each and every Friday! Head here to get in on the fun.
And, if you aren’t on the newsletter list (it comes out every Saturday morning!), it’s not too late! I’m giving away a $50 gift card to a newsletter subscriber each week until Christmas! Click below to get on the list…
That’s it! Thank you for all of your support this week!

1. HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE: For The Little Ones
2. October Amazon Haul + Hits and Misses
3. Old Navy Fall Try-On Session
4. The BEST Cyber Monday Sales!
5. A Versatile Striped Dress: 3 Ways
1. The BEST pajamas ever are in this month’s top spot! I have them in 3 colors + LIVE in them. I wear XS. (Also, since they keep selling out every time they’re restocked, here is the tee version!)
2. You guys continue to love my parka, and I can’t say that I blame you. It’s a less expensive version of this popular coat and it’s currently on major sale! It’s in stock in all 4 colors. I’m wearing 2, but 0 would be better.
3. My $20 striped long sleeve tee comes in third and is currently on sale for $15! I love it because it covers the booty and is so easy to throw on under a cozy cardigan. It runs big, so be sure to size down.
4. My cable knit sweater has been restocked! It comes in 5 colors. I’m wearing XS, but I would prefer a small.
5. My favorite faux leather leggings are always a reader favorite! They are a fun twist on your everyday leggings, but they’re not too “extra”. (Am I too old to say “extra”?) I’m wearing size small. (See 6 ways to style them here!)
1. My $15 blanket scarf has been a top seller since I first shared it! It comes in a TON of colors.
2. How cute are our mama + baby matching beanies? They’re only $11!
3. My new favorite dress! It’s less than $70 and was recently restocked! It’s so flattering and comfortable. (I shared 3 ways to style it here!)
4. Another blanket scarf! This one is $12 and also comes in a whole bunch of colors. (See this whole look here.)
5. The girls’ name puzzles round out this month’s top Amazon sellers! They are an adorable gift for the little ones in your life and are less than $32. (See our whole playroom reveal here!)
One of our Christmas Traditions is making Christmas cookies
Hi Sandra! We love doing that, too 🙂
Our #1 tradition is midnight mass with a lasagna dinner before we go.
Hi, Faye! That’s so special! And Christmas lasagna sounds amazing 🙂 xo
Favorite Christmas tradition: Going to Mass on Christmas Eve with my extended family and then heading to my parents for a feast before opening gifts!! ☺️
That sounds like such a wonderful family tradition! Love it, Kari 🙂
My favorite holiday tradition is having monkey bread on Christmas morning. It’s a special treat for the kids – as we usually never let them have this much sugar for breakfast (ha!). As they’ve gotten older, they now love to help make it ahead on Christmas Eve. That way it’s ready to be popped in the oven & bake while everyone is opening presents on Christmas morning!
That’s such a sweet tradition, Kim! And did you see?? You won last week’s giveaway! Email me at suzanne@mykindofsweet.com and I’ll get you your gift card 🙂 xo
Thanks so much for all the great finds! And your reminder about being kind, especially this time of year things tend to take longer, people tend to be in a hurry and tempers can be short. It’s a good reminder to slow down and try to show some empathy and kindness!
Hi Megan! Thank you so much for following along! And YES, that’s SO true and such a great reminder. Empathy and kindness go such a long way. <3
Love the newsletter! And one of our very favorite traditions is our Christmas book countdown where we read a holiday book as a family every day 🙂 We wrap the books and the kids take turns unwrapping one per day!
Love, love, love that. And love you! xo
Love your posts and the reminder…I worked retail as well and it is a tough gig! One tradition we have is driving around looking at Christmas lights. It really is about the small things in life 🙂
Yes! Retail is tough anytime of the year, but especially around the holidays! Thank you for the support, Kate! xo
What a great blog you write.. never really read it before.. great ideas and a warm welcoming feeling… I love the holidays and cannot wait for family and friends to start coming over….
You are so sweet – thank you, Michele!
A holiday tradition I like to do is sending out cards. It is very fun to engage in writing out a special message to each person I cherish. 🙂
That’s so sweet! Love that. Thanks for stopping by, Emily! xo
My favorite holiday tradition is baking with my family and making homemade peanut brittle! I really enjoy your blog!

Ooh yum! Thanks, Angela! PS – you won the giveaway! Email me at suzanne@mykindofsweet.com for your gift card! xo
Our family tradition is making almond roca from scratch.
That sounds delish! xo
Our family holiday tradition is eating cinnamon roles for breakfast on Christmas morning.
My favorite holiday tradition would be to send out holiday ecards.
Yes! I love sending ours out and getting everyone’s to see how much the kiddos have grown over the year!
