So happy that Croc’s asked me to check out their new styles! I’ve been a huge fan for the longest time and my kids practically live in them, and I have to tell you the new selections are so adorable it’s gonna be really tough picking a favorite. There’s a ton of affordable options for everyone in the family. I’ll definitely be snagging a few pairs for family and friends who love to be stylish and comfy! Check out some of my favorite and what to wear them with below!
Pair the Aolani boots with leggings, skinny jeans or even a pair of shorts with tights. They’re super styilsh, super comfy and will be your go to boots!
These loafers are so cute and not too girly which I love!! I paired them with a basic trench and plaid top but they can be worn with everything all year round.
Kids:
My boys live in crocs and these Cobbler boots will definitely be under the tree this year!!
My youngest has the Hover boat shoes and he calls them his ‘dressy’ shoes – so cute!
Nubuck Chukka Boots - Great boots for winter casual looks.
Crocs Hover Leather Boat Shoe - The all year round comfy shoe!

It’s the little things that count in life, like sending quick hello to a friend or birthday wishes to a loved one. Which is why, in today’s crazy busy world, I am such a big fan of a new App called justWink.
It’s FREE, super easy to use, full of personality and each card can be personalized with photos (my favorite part) and even a signature! I decided to have my son help me send one to his dad (he thought it was so cool that he could sign his name).

justWink is an awesome collection of greeting cards that feature bold colors, adorable illustrations, and witty copy for every occasion.

Eina Ahluwalia is hailed as India’s first conceptual jewelry artist. Firmly believing in the importance of making a concerted move away from factory-designed products to those made by real artisans with real passions and stories, Eina now sells her collections through Boticca:
“The creative process begins with a lot of coffee and angst. I have to reach within myself and sift through a lot of thoughts and ideas to find the one strong story that needs to be shared.” - Eina Ahluwalia
Eina is one of more than 250 designers from 40+ countries all over the world now selling her pieces through Boticca, which is actually the only place on the net that you can feel that amazing sense of discovery you get when you find a rare, one-off trinket on your travels.

Traditionally, a Kirpan is a small symbolic sword worn on the body by Sikhs – a warrior race that acted to protect oppressed communities from Mughal rule in India. Amazingly, this piece, which can be worn at several different lengths, is 100% handcrafted, featuring intricate fretwork on brass with 22-karat gold plating.
