Friday Favorites: Iced In

I love the few days a year when I wake up to a winter wonderland like this!

Disclaimer: this is what I wanted our snow to look like, but instead, it was ice.
It's been unseasonably frigid in North Carolina this week. I feel so much for those of you who have been experiencing this for months now. I don't do normally well with cold, but I won't lie, I haven't hated this impromptu winter break. Here are my Friday favorites! {one}

Maybe I should have called this the Winston edition? I've enjoyed spending some time with the little guy this week. And clearly he has loved it.

T Tahari 'Taryn' Hooded Down Coat available at #Nordstrom

Being that I was born and raised in North Carolina, I don't have a heavy winter coat. Allie posted a picture on Instagram of her in an awesome one. So, I headed over to Nordstrom and picked one up for myself at 40% off.
