I spent the weekend at High Hampton in Cashiers, NC with my girlfriends and it was such a gorgeous spot that I have to share. It’s about a 4 and a half hour drive from Charleston so it’s fairly easy to get to and enjoy some mountain air. We went to attend my friend Molly Fienning’s Sip Series at the hotel. She owns Red Clay and she hosted a really fun cocktail class at the resort! Here are some (many) photos of our weekend at High Hampton and the beautiful resort. Every corner was more beautiful than the next so get ready for a lot of pictures.

These are the girls I was with, Grace Atwood, Molly Fienning, Kate Stevenson, and Jackie Thomson. We stayed in the 4 bedroom Halstead Cottage which was a wonderful space with soaking tubs and a common area to hang. Highly recommend.

Cute shot of my floral weekender bag and Lake robe. High Hampton is managed by the same owners of Blackberry Farm so you know the cuisine is incredible. The food you guys. Out of this world. The menu changed daily, and I’m dreaming of every single thing I ate.

And the recently renovated Inn and common spaces were my most favorite. All of the fabrics and patterns and colors couldn’t have been more lovely together. And the rooms are filled with lots of games and activities making it such a comfortable common space that you want to be a part of.

I wore my Sorel booties during the day they’re so comfy and warm (and on sale right now).

The Red Clay Sip Series class was so fun too. We made 4 cocktails and learned some tricks from the bartender Kelly! If you’re looking for a good time to go this winter I recommend planning around one of these events. Also if you want to order any Red Clay products use my code CHASSITY30 for 30% off sitewide!

My Cotopaxi coat was plenty warm for the cold temps.

A cozy and relaxing girls weekend was just what I needed. I’m wearing my Printfresh pajamas here and reading The Hawthorne Legacy. Also note the cute cushion on the headboard, love this design idea!

In summary High Hampton gets my highest approval. I can’t wait to go back and would love to make it there this summer with the kids! Put it on your bucket list!

I’m on a roll of working out and the way to keep the ball rolling is to make it fun. For me that involves pretty clothes, fun accessories, and switching things up. Here are some favorites to give the mundane a little oomph.

blue zip up, tennis racquet, boxing gloves, white sweatshirt,

bala weights, scrunchie sports bra, cardio kick bag, white sneakers,

seafoam leggings, high waist underwear, long sleeve tee, the mirror

First thing’s first basically all of the apparel shown come in more color options, but that blue zip up is perfect as is. I have the white cropped sweatshirt in black and am actually wearing it as I type. And I haven’t seen a sneaker brand blow up like the On sneakers have in a long time. I haven’t tried them yet but they must actually feel like a cloud for the way people are buying them. And last but not least, new year new undies anyone? Thought so.

My latest Holiday Gift Guide is technically for the guys, but since this is a girl blog I threw in a few things you might benefit from too :) Ahem latte maker. Happy shopping!

Holiday entertaining is in full swing, it’s so fun to set a pretty table and see family and friends. Caroline’s Cakes asked me to share some of my favorite holiday entertaining ideas and traditions on their instagram today, and I was thrilled to set a Christmas table for cake and coffee with family and friends. If you haven’t tried Caroline’s Cakes I highly recommend them. Every cake is shipped frozen and absolutely delicious. You can even re-freeze it again! It’s the perfect dessert for family get togethers, and Caroline’s has so many amazing flavors. I love alllll of the chocolate ones.

Every Christmas my Mother in Law gifts us a new set of Christmas china, and it’s so fun to have an eclectic collection of Christmas dishes to set the table with. My kids especially love planning which person gets which set. It’s such a fun tradition!

(I’m wearing my new silk dress from Wiggy Kit)

The Cake Bites from Caroline’s Cakes are S’mores flavor and so so good. This is the perfect gift for family! My table linens are from Amanda Lindroth’s new block printed collection.
