HOLIDAY EDITION COFFEE WITH DESI

Good morning! It’s been a fun first week in November here on Beautifully Seaside. Lots of new holiday styles were posted to give you a head start on planning out your holiday wardrobe, plus Christmas Gift Guides went live last Sunday and it seems like you’re enjoying that post! In today’s Holiday Edition Coffee with Desi, I’m sharing some good news and a few things I’m loving this week including joining Faster Way to Fat Loss.

Desiree’s Book Club

November marks the first month of my new book club here on Beautifully Seaside! I’m so excited about this new endeavor! In last week’s, Coffee with Desi, I shared what books I’m planning on reading this month and if you would like to join me, I will be having a review at the end of November about these books. I’m also looking for some holiday books to read in the month of December, so if you have any suggestions, please do share them in the comments. Here are the books I’m reading this month!

Getting Ready for the Holidays with Faster Way to Fat Loss

As many of you know, I joined Faster Way to Fat Loss on January 7th of this year which marked the beginning of my healthy eating and fat loss. I lost 21 pounds and forever learned the value of intermittent fasting, carb cycling, whole food nutrition, and exercise. I was invited to be interviewed in a podcast with Amanda Tress, the founder of Faster Way to Fat Loss. In addition, I will also be attending their conference in early December. I’m so excited about both of these opportunities!

Join the next round of Faster Way to Fay Loss that begins on November 11th! With your registration, you’ll get a detailed menu list, exercise videos, and all the information you need to be successful with your fat loss journey this holiday season. Amanda Tress will be your coach and encourage you along your journey! Moreover, if you use my link to register, I’ll send you an invite to my closed Facebook group! You can also register to attend the conference here.

J.Crew’s Throwback Classic Peacoat with Modern Tweaks

A few days I ago I shared new holiday arrivals from J.Crew and this peacoat was included in that collection. I ordered it in the heather acorn and it is gorgeous. I love that’s it’s not too thick, which makes it easier for me to layer. So I brought it with me to Boston and it’s perfect! It’s 40% off right now with code FAMILY! J.Crew gave this peacoat from their archives a new modern twist with a slimmer fit and pop of color under the color. Way to go J.Crew!

Super Flattering Jeans

I wore my new jeans yesterday for my travel day to Boston and ladies I give them an A+! They have this new technology called, Perfecting Pockets. These pockets hold you in, lift you up, and are really comfortable. They fit true to size and have a stretch to them.

New Gift Guides were added!

I added more gift guides since the launch of this post and wanted to make sure you get a chance to see what’s new. A reader reached out with a suggestion on a new gift guide that I will be charing on Monday. I hope you enjoy these Christmas Gift Guides and find them helpful to shop this season!
