a lovely living

Here we are, jumping into 2020! Although it’s always nostalgic moving onto a new year, and a new decade this time around, it’s refreshing at the same time. I don’t always set a New Year’s resolution, but this year I want to focus more on reading. This is a goal I’ve set before, but I’m hopeful my ‘one chapter a day’ will be more manageable. Last year my goal was to start drinking half my body weight in water (ounces) and although I didn’t hit it every single day, my water intake has become drastically greater since then. My SIL gifted me this water bottle and it’s made all the difference for me. It makes drinking more of a game and more manageable as well as it walks you through the day hour by hour. Here’s another one that I really like. Finding a good bottle to keep by your side may be beneficial to you as well, New Year’s resolution or not! Have any of you set goals this year? Big or small? I’d love to know!

I ordered this quilted jacket prior to Christmas during one of Anthropologie’s sales and boy am I glad I did! This is one of those unicorn pieces in my closet for sure. Dusty pinks are my favorite shade of pink, and this casual, throw-on and go type jacket (that feels like a broken in sweatshirt) is perfect for my casual everyday. I traveled in it over the holidays and it was the best cozy layer. Here I wore it over top of my Madewell overalls that I’ve had for what feels like forever, yet they look brand new. I also layered on a faux fur scarf that’s been in my closet for years. It may seem an out of the ordinary color to have, but I wear it so often and receive many compliments on it each time. I’ve gathered a bunch of similar option for you to check out below. With more winter ahead, it’s a smart piece to consider.
