Good morning friends! In this week’s Holiday Edition Coffee with Desi, I’m sharing what I ordered this morning for the holiday season and for my trip to Boston. Plus, what I’m reading and more. I also included some holiday styles that are on my radar right now, so make sure to check them out at the end of this post. I hope you enjoy this week’s, Holiday Edition Coffee with Desi!
New Books On My Reading List
I finally finished Erin Hildebrand’s book, Summer of 69, and I loved it! This book inspired me to add more books to my reading list, so this morning I ordered three books from Target that have been recommended by a ton of people. Plus, if you buy two books at Target, the third book is free! I took advantage of this sale and ordered American Royals, Royal Holiday, and Becoming Michelle Obama. I hope they’re as good as people said they were. Have you read any of them?
Cozy Holiday Accessories
As I was checking out what’s new online at Old Navy I came across the cutest house slippers. I ordered two of them online and will pick them up this afternoon. One of my readers asked me to do a review of holiday house slippers, so I think these will be great to add to the list. I’ve worn slippers from Old Navy before, so I expect these slippers are going to be fabulous! I also included some other cozy socks and slippers for you to check out. I’m going to be adding all of them to my Holiday Shop too!
The Prettiest Fall/Holiday Eyeshadow Palette
I’ve been on the lookout for a new eyeshadow palette and love this one by Laura Mercier. This elegant eyeshadow palette features 12 versatile neutral shades for an endless creation of looks. I love wearing shimmer shades throughout the year and especially during the holiday season. I linked all the places where you can shop this palette.
Embellished Looks I Loving this Holiday Season
J.Crew really knocked it out of the park this holiday season with the prettiest embellished sweaters and tops. I already ordered this gemstone sweater last week and ladies. It. Is. GORGEOUS! I mean, it’s so, so, so pretty. I’m bringing it with me to Boston next week to wear my new coat. (insert a big giddy grin here) I just checked the weather there and it’s supposed to snow one day! Yippee! Anyway, definitely check out what I linked below, because I’m ordering all of them to wear this season to holiday events and more.
Cold Weather Boots I’m Loving
I checked the weather in Boston and it’s supposed to snow one day, so now I need to make sure I have a pair of cozy boots to wear. I ordered these Sperry waterproof faux shearling boots and think they will look cute with what I’m packing for this trip.

Cute boots! They look really warm.
Thank you Deb! I thought so too! I didn’t want to bring any too big, because I’m not planning on walking through the snow. Hope you have the best weekend! XO
