Gift Guide: Under $20

Hello all! Sorry for the short hiatus. Between holiday parties, Christmas shopping (I finished mine all up this past weekend! Go me!), getting my holiday cards out, taking my dog to the vet (4 times in the last two months...he's fine now), work, and life getting in the way, my blog posting had to take a backseat. But I'm back and in full force!

Since I have all of my holiday shopping done I thought I'd help you all get your shopping done too. Gift guides are going to be in full effect on Snapshot Fashion. I'm taking the stress out of shopping for others. Let's get started!

Today I'm going to be showing you some great gift ideas for under $20. Maybe you're low on cash, are participating in a Secret Santa at work, or need a good stocking stuffer...any of these would be perfect.

Plantfolk Apothecary X UO Lip Scrub available at Urban Outfitters- $16

Glass Candle Holder available at H&M- $9.99

Cable Knit Hat available at Joe Fresh- $16 

I'm going to work on getting some more gift guides together for you all. If anyone wants a particular gift guide please leave me a comment and I'll try to get one up just for you!

HAPPY SHOPPING!

 

Spots on Dots

We finally put our Christmas tree up. Even thought it is very skinny, it is full of silly ornaments and multi-colored lights. Fun and quirky just like my husband and myself. One of the reasons I wanted to make sure it was up soon is because I had nowhere to go with the gifts I bought. Can you believe that I have about 90% of my shopping done already? At the beginning of December I'm never this far ahead of the game. Go me!!!

sweater: H&M / skirt: H&M / tights: Joe Fresh / over the knee boots: Nine West

These over the knee boots are probably my new favorite item in my wardrobe. I got them way on sale at Lord and Taylor last month. But the good news is that they are still on sale (I think even more than when I bought them)! Be sure to check it out. They are very comfortable, go with just about everything, and are so on trend for the season.

I was trying to go for a "lampshading" look here. You know, tall boots, an oversized top, and a short skirt or shorts. Not sure what I really think of the trend or if I even achieved the look or not...but thought it was worth a shot!

Oh yeah...lastly, I got bangs (again!). I was bored with my hair about two weeks ago and told my stylist to switch up my look with some bangs. I'm always getting bored and making very subtle changes. For some reason they look way more blunt in these photos than they actually are. Weird. What do you all think?

Mad for Plaid

If you don't have some red plaid in your wardrobe you might want to add some in now. Not quite grunge...and not quite lumberjack. I've been seeing this look everywhere lately and I love it!!!

Reason Woodsman Plaid Pompom Hat available at Urban Outfitters- $28

Double Faced Plaid Shirt available at Joe Fresh- $29

Mount Plaid Duffle Coat available at Coach- $995

Helene Berman Checked Waistcoat with Fringed Hem available at ASOS- on sale for $144

Julia Street Plaid Small Annabella available at Kate Spade New York- on sale $47

How do you wear your red plaid?

Cats & Dogs

There is nothing like autumn in New York City. The smell of leaves (my favorite!), the crisp fall air, wearing tights/jackets/layers/hats...it's the best! Every weekend like this my husband and I always take our dog on long walks. This morning we went for a walk through Greenpoint. It was the perfect start to our day.

On Diane- faux fur coat: H&M/dress: H&M/tights: Joe Fresh/lace-up ballet flats: Zara/belt: H&M/cat hat: BCBGMAXAZRIA

On Chris- coat: Urban Outfitters/jeans: Kill City/shirt: Schott Bros./boots: Dr. Martens

Rocko was so distracted at the park today. So many dogs were out enjoying the weather...and the dirt must have tasted extra delicious because he wouldn't stop eating it. Rocko, what am I going to do with you???

But we couldn't stay mad at the little guy for long. All he wanted was cuddles and belly rubs on the park bench...and then five minutes later it was back to eating dirt sandwiches. Ugh!

So I just got this cat hat and I can't get enough of it. No, it's not part of a Halloween costume..just me and my quirky self. I love it!!!

How do you celebrate fall???
