Les Chic, Les Chien (Week Twelve)

Each week, I review one hundred looks, half of which induce the phonetic uh-mey-zing and half of which induce more violent vomit than the night Jake chose Vienna. With this series (translation: the cool, the rotten), you will ascertain, via my eyes, why an ensemble should spend an evening as your apparel or why an ensemble should spend an evening inside a nondescript box whose ultimate destination is the Salvation Army.

Seriously, Kate Middleton is so flawless. She defines the world beautiful. Just about six months after giving birth, she rocks a gorgeous white gown with lucid jewelry, simple, black clutch and her handsome Prince. Seriously, it just couldn't get much better than this. Perfection at its finest. Well done!

Robin Thicke, after your stupid 'Blurred Lines' video that ended up being banned from YouTube and now this grungy, homeless look, you make me realize the real truth... Blurred Vision. You are an adult, you are a parent and you are not a sixteen year old Justin Bieber. Therefore, dress and act your age. You are welcome in advance.

Hannah's Holiday Look Book Gift Five

On snowy and cold days such as today, I really start dreaming of the beach. Then, I realize how much I miss LA (believe me, the job hunt is on!) But, while I can't be surrounded by the palm trees with my sunnies on and a fruity drink in hand, I might as well cozy up with a hot cup of tea and my blog while a delicious warm vanilla scent roams my room. I adore the classic Vanilla Bean Signature from Henri Bendel. Its perfect for the winter months and displays such a classic all white look. The perfect scent for those bitter winter days.

Hannah's Holiday Look Book Gift Three

Each year that I ponder my Look Book gift ideas, I make sure to include the gorgeous Christopher Radko Limited Edition ornaments designed by celebrities or designers where 100% of the proceeds go to the Child Mind Institute. I have a lot of respect for Child Mind Institute and find it important to make them part of my yearly Look Book so we can help those children in need. Child Mind encourages and supports children and families by helping them believe, comfort and hope all while providing the one thing we all need most, love. Share the holiday spirit and purchase any of the six  gorgeous ornaments at Bloomingdales. Find out more about Child Mind Institute at childmind.org.

Hannah's Holiday Look Book Gift Two

One of my absolute favorite accessories and something I have on my list to Santa is Look Book Gift Two: All in a Word Leather Bracelet! ;) Who else adores a genuine leather bracelet with a cute symbol or lovely sentiment! I love the "She Lives Life In Her Own Little Fairytale," sentiment bracelet because that is how I live my life. I absolutely die for these especially since you could seriously gift these for both boys and girls. Perfection!

Hannah's Holiday Look Book Gift One

This year has been huge for me. I have finished college, started a job, achieved my "half way" goal in my weight loss journey and surprisingly enough, become more zen. Before, anxiety used to control my life. You would have never guessed, but last year as I started Hannah's Holiday Look Book, I was depressed, unhappy and to be completely honest, miserable mentally and physically. Today, I write up this Look Book with confidence, happiness and a sense of freedom within myself.  While I still deal with the random anxiety or worry, I live free and happy because I chose to make that change this past January as a New Year resolution.  With that said, this brings me to Gift One for Hannah's Holiday Look Book 2013! Lets get started. May Cause Miracles: A 40-Day Guidebook of Subtle Shifts for Radical Change and Unlimited Happiness by Gabrielle Bernstein has helped me tremendously. I recommend this book to anyone dealing with issues as well as those just dealing with plain ole happiness. It will help change your outlook on life and make you feel more "one" within yourself, which is very important for an even happier you! This is the perfect gift for friends and family and even better, a reasonable cost.
