Friends, I feel like the official countdown to Christmas is in full-force! Today, I’m wrapping up holiday shopping by partnering with my favorite retailer Nordstrom and ShopStyle and sharing some of my favorite beauty finds PLUS the coziest outfit ever AND Christmas cookies. #winning #holidaystyle
Okay, these three things came home with me from Nordstrom last week, and they’re all a little special, a little different and wrapped up and ready to be gifted! (Thank you, Nordstrom for having gifts out already with red bows on them!!)
1: First up, the Charlotte Tillbury Magic Skincare Secret set is perfect for anyone wanting to try this brand but not commit to full bottles. It includes their famous Magic Cream along with other skincare heavy-hitters from her beauty line. This would also be great for throwing in gym bags and/or carryons (who wants to lug around full bottles?!). It’s wrapped up nicely and ready to go!
2: Calling all Replica lovers like ME!!! You know how much I ADORE their fragrances (give me all the By the Fireplace this time of year!!), well, I saw that they now make candles to match some of their scents. #brilliant I actually gifted two of these candles to girlfriends of mine who I know wear their perfumes every day. These candles are pricier than others, so this is a gift for that person who has everything (or that person who loves Replica colognes). Also, once again, thank you, Nordstrom for those red bows 🙂 .
3: And finally, I thought this Lalicious Scrub and Body Butter Set was priced right and ready to be shared with a friend, neighbor, teacher, or anyone on your gift list. If you’ve never smelled this before…it smells lightly of vanilla cake. It’s so nice!!
Also, don’t forget, Nordstrom still has toys left if you need to do a bit of shopping for the kiddos in your life!

On Saturday, I wore the COZIEST outfit all day long, and so many of you wanted to know the details on Instagram. Whether you buy this to gift or for yourself, I’ve already washed mine so I can wear it again tomorrow when I stay home and wrap gifts!
It all started with my “base” layers…
Zella leggings (with a pocket for my phone!) and the softest tank!
This tank is suuuuper soft and comes in two bright and happy other colors too!
But wait?
That’s not all!
You have to top it with…
…the world’s longest and coziest zip up hoodie!
It’s like a long cardigan and a sweatshirt got married and had a baby. It’s soft, it’s warm, it’s cute zipped or unzipped, it’s great for lounging or leaving…it comes in three colors and it makes me HAPPY!
Don’t I look happy?! Ha! I’m wearing an xs in all three things and then, of course, my Ugg slippers too!
One more cozy Nordstrom find for the day (or year, actually!)…
This sweater. It’s chenille. Do I need to say more?! It’s a big over-sized, would look cute with jeans or leggings and is chenille. Did I mention that before? CHENILLE!
The holiday doesn’t need to be stressful, Nordstrom is the one-stop shop for all your needs, whether you’re shopping for yourself or your family! I always love shopping at Nordstrom because not only do they have everything my family needs from beauty to shoes to home, clothes, bath and more, but they have impeccable service, free shipping, free returns and curbside pick up…which in 2020 is invaluable. You can get all of the details about joining their Nordy Club HERE as well!
Now, make sure you head on over to check out these today…
…we made EASY CUT-OUT SUGAR COOKIES (that can also be g-free!) this weekend!
Curls and smiles all around!
I’m trying really hard to do “less” this year, so I can enjoy this stuff more.
If you’re looking for an easy little recipe to make cut-out cookies, look HERE.
Okay, friends! I’m off! I need to go prepare for tomorrow’s post…MY ANNUAL BOOK REVIEW!!!!
I’ll be naming my top three books of 2020 on my blog…and I hope you read them all! Sending you lots of love this Tuesday! xo

Ahhhhhhhh!!!! The countdown is ON!!
Alexis deZayas says
Madeley’s curls kill me!! What a cutie!
polly pover says
You must not be a “sock”person! You show lots of pics of yourself being “cozy”….but never socks. I equate cozy and socks!!
Happy Holidays!
Mix and Match Mama says
I’m a slipper person!
Katie Compton says
I’m a sock AND slipper person! Even in the summer. Ha!
Elspeth says

I think you’ve posted before but when I went back I couldn’t find it. Where do you find those trays for the kids? And Merry Christmas to your precious family!
Mix and Match Mama says
Amazon! We’re still using our original ones that I thin are five years old!!
Laci says
Madeley in curls…oh my word!

Nancy says
Where did you buy your kitchen rugs? Are they just regular area type rugs or more washable?
Thanks!
Mix and Match Mama says
They are not washable (we steam clean or spot treat as needed). I bought this one at a carpet store here in town.
Sheaffer Sims says
That hoodie looks incredible!
Carol says
My very favorite post this year! So loved seeing your kids making cooking and having fun! This is memories that they will always remember and as mommas we will always treasure. This is something that we always did with my boys along with a birthday cake for Jesus every year. And although they are now grown, we still get together and make cookies and a birthday cake for Jesus. Made cookies yesterday and making the cake early next week. Wishing you and your family a continued joyous and Blessed Christmas season!
Nancy says
Where do you buy your kitchen rugs? Are they specifically kitchen rugs or just area rugs?
Mix and Match Mama says
This rug is from a carpet store here in town. I found the sample and they cut it into a rug the size I needed.
Lori R. says

Beautiful children and I love Madeley’s curls.
Dana says
Madeley’s little curls and lip gloss….she is ADORABLE!!! I think I’m going to go whip up some sugar cookie dough to make cookies this afternoon!
Mix and Match Mama says
That kid…she melts me. 😉
Karen Lindstrom says
Hi Shay, Would you please link the red mixing bowls you use and also the Christmas tree glasses you used for your Vixens cocktail. I thought you did at one time but I can’t seem to find them now. Thank you!
Mix and Match Mama says
I’m not sure if they still sell them or not? They’re from Williams-Sonoma and come as a set of three!
Missy says
You look so amazing and tiny!!! I wish I had your energy. Maybe you could do a post one day to share with us your motivation to exercise and what you do to stay in such great shape. My late 48 is kicking my butt! LOL
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh you’re so sweet!!! I have done posts sort of like that before, but maybe with the new year/new goals/new resolutions, I could do some more?!
Dana says
What size in the Ugg Slippers? Some of their styles run bigger so you have to size down. Merry Christmas!
Mix and Match Mama says
TTS! Mine are 8s!
Dana Scarpitti says
Great! Thank you! They had one size 8 left in the pink & I was able to order them. They just shipped today! Can’t wait.
Donna says
I bought the trays this year, thanks to your blog, to use with the grandkids and it’s a game changer! Love the valances in your eat in area. Are the custom or do you have a link for them? Thanks!
Mix and Match Mama says
Yay!!!! I”m so happy you love the trays too. And the window treatments are all custom.
Jamie Sypniewski says
Where is the rug in your closet from?
Mix and Match Mama says
Magnolia Home!
