 It's my voice, I know. Dude, I'm supposed to record all day and film all day. My voice sounds like this, and it's very important. It's not good. My bestie. So much honey. My house is getting clean today, so we're going to a knife. Responsibility. Dana's here, my voice is gone. So like a lot of this is gonna be voice over, but I'm manifesting in 2022 that I'm gonna be in a country music video and one of my country's star friends is gonna put my name in a song. It's easy. Ken's. It makes sense. It would be fun. Ken's. Ken's. Ken's. Ken's, there's like so many things you can, I'm not, honestly I didn't even work, so. Anyways, we're at Highland Park Village, we're filming a video. So I've been drinking hot drinks and now I'm drinking a cold drink and that's just not a good idea. My voice will get better throughout the video, I promise. We just left Anthropology. This is probably the biggest Anthropology I've ever received. By received I mean paid for. So, yeah. The Taylor's flu. We're back to so many packages and just things my sister's gift. More stuff. All right guys, it's 320. I got this like throat spray. Let me show it to you. My voice is slowly coming back. I'm about to go and get rest for the rest of the day, but I wanted my brother to come over. I don't know. This stuff is saving my life. We just filmed an entire video. We got everything done today, which I feel so good about. So I need to send that over to my editor. And then I have so much stuff for the podcast. I have to prep for like six episodes next week in New York and then I need to get all my LA recordings scheduled, which I've been doing for like two months, but literally I start planning those scheduleings like three or four months before I go. The house is so festive, a sneak peek we made, but it just feels like so cute. This candle we got today, anthropology. It smells incredible. I don't know what it's named, but I'll try to link it below. Vendetta was like, that smells so freaking good. So love that. I've been editing, but I want to remind you guys that I have my gift guide on Google Doc. It is linked on every single video and will be from here on out until Christmas. So you guys need a good gift ideas. I, it's like my biggest love language. I love gift giving. I'll have it linked below. Look at how cozy my house is right now. Oh my God, I'm dying. Finished work, I therapy. It is now 8 p.m. I'm gonna go shower and read for the night. 10 more books or 11 more books to read in the year. I'm right on track. I'm going to do it. I have to work on this. I need to read like three books this week. So I have all of the stuff that I've just been relying on for my voice. It's not the best. Also, this is what you have to look forward to when you get older, everyone. I'm excited about this new roller laundry basket. Only problem is that it is literally bigger than my last one. Difference is that it rolls, but I don't know how great that's gonna be because I still have to carry it down the stairs. Let's think about this stuff. Oh, much better. Cause then I can roll, take down and roll, roll, roll, roll, roll. I think I've figured out my laundry dilemma. I got it on Amazon. I will link it below. I mean, it's kind of beautiful. I just came out of the shower. Fitz is just waiting for bed like this. Like, is that all the sweetest thing you've ever seen? He's waiting for me to sit next to him. Have my candle going. I'm about to read. I think it's like 9 p.m. I'm wearing my favorite skim pajamas. I live in these. These are as small, but I definitely prefer this medium size on me. I have those in gray, but they don't have that. I have my glass of water. I'm gonna read hopefully an entire book tonight. Finish one, read another one. Also, this is like the best way to drink water. Glass straw, this glass, like do you guys just also get really obsessed with like glassware in straws? Guys, it's 7.45. I've just got ready doing this thing where I put on real clothes. Here we are. Here's my outfit, my voice. Oh my God, it feels so much better. It sounds better. It doesn't sound perfect, but it sounds better. We've got little Mr. Fitz over here looking handsome as ever. This jacket is from Free People. I got it in my newly subscription. I have a skim as a body suit on, not skim, spanks. These jeans, I'm honestly kind of over the asymmetrical cut. I over wore them, but I mean, I like how they fit elsewhere and whatever. Then I have my boots from Sam Edelman last season. I'm gonna take the dogs out and then head to get coffee with my dad this morning. Guys, my dad showed up with old merch. So cute. I just got home. I was recording ads to send in. I'm watching Alexis and TK. Alexis is actually also coming on my podcast in January. How exciting. I came home to make my self breakfast. I was like being so great. And then I realized that I don't have bacon. And so I had to order an I had Chick-fil-A. What are you gonna do? What a beautiful treat. Perks are waking up so early. So invalid. How much is in this? A Rogers quote, the goodie in the thing. Seth is over making me my tea because he wants to hang out and I don't have a voice. As much as possible, I'm literally gonna eat spoonfuls of that. Everyone in this vlog is gonna be so annoyed with me. Wow. Here we are. Thanks, brother Seth. Yeah, that should be good. And realized that he's literally spoon feeding me. My honey, thank you so much. I'm literally doing this as I'm texting my friends about what bars we're gonna go to tomorrow night. And this is why this is why I'm here. It's 3.30. I've just been working on so many upcoming podcast episodes. I planned all the New York ones and then I was doing outreach for my next LA trip. She just finished like she doesn't need more. I have had so much honey and it has saved my voice. It's better at least. Gonna go to the closet and plan out my outfits for this week. I leave for New York on Saturday. I'm gonna be gone and busy and gonna be traveling. I just need to like pack some stuff up. Seth and I might be going to Lila's for happy hour. I'm not sure. So I need to get on that. I mentioned this before when I'm actually working with a stylist and she sent me all these looks for like as potentials basically for my New York trip. I mean it's literally the best thing ever. Amazing. This is her Instagram too. If you guys wanna go follow her. I mean she just has like great like outfit like inspo anyways. But like I'm obsessed with her. If you guys wanna virtual stylist, DM her obsessed. I decided I'm gonna replace this rack because it's about to fall over. I knew on the rolls and these clothes are all going to my friend's house but I did plan some outfits so things are pretty much good to go. It'll just be a lot easier to pack on Friday when I get back from home I think. I think as of right now I'm gonna go home tomorrow. My friend's and I are gonna go out and then just stay home. By home I mean, I'm like from 40 minutes north of Dallas. Stay there, do Thanksgiving there and then come back Friday morning and then Friday we have like a Christmas event. I need to pack, get ready and then I leave at four a.m. Saturday morning. So honestly I might go out Friday night too. I just stay up and then sleep on the plane. So that's the plan as of right now. But I think I'm going, this thing obviously has to get rid of it got ruined with water damage and then I'm gonna get another roller rack so I can just have like outfits actually planned out and good and ready to go. Like this is just not working for me and actually start ranking outfits again. So that is the plan. But Seth just texted me, I think we're gonna go to Lila's for happy hour. I am kind of done with work. I can just do it later and I've been waiting for something to arrive all day and hasn't. Beautiful. Good morning guys, woke up early to get some work done because I'm ending my work day a little bit early and driving home tonight. I'm proud of putting together outfits. I'm just staying at home for two nights and we're gonna go out I think both nights but it's Thanksgiving obviously. I wanna talk to you guys about these by the way. I'm gonna show you some of the things I've been loving because I feel like I just haven't given you guys like much substance in the vlogs lately but I recently picked these up. My stylist Brittany sent them to me to buy like on my dock thing and they're from Jeffrey Campbell. They are the best boots ever. If you are a wimp with heels and you need a nice boot that you can wear at a night on the town all day, these are it. They are so beautiful. Like look at them. They're so good. So I'm bringing these as like my nice boots to wear and then I'm obviously gonna be wearing my ungs. Don't worry about that but I'm telling you guys right now like if you buy anything this winter season these are so good. Also my skims long sleeves. I need every skims color bodysuit like desperately. It's not even funny. It's actually something I desperately, desperately, desperately need. So I just had a long sleeves for now. I think I'm gonna wear this tonight just to get dinner with some friends from home that I've like literally known since I was probably eight when I first made to make any. And then I think I'm gonna wear this sweater for Thanksgiving tomorrow. I got it from Zara. It's probably the best sweater that I own. This little chocolate brown number. I mean, it's perfect. I also have this brown puffer that I'm gonna bring. I might wear that tomorrow. I don't really know. It depends on like what everything ends up being. This is the bag that I use when I go to my mom's house though. It's like this weekender bag. The dogs are coming. We're gonna pack up. Maddie, my sister and I are driving together. So it's gonna be literally four dogs in my small car. I mean, it's like a bit sized car but it's not big. So here's what we have so far. I'm blasting country and Christmas music. Talking to Margot about a trip to New York this weekend. Lauren's coming last minute. We're going to Luke Holmes but Lauren's going Monday, I'm going Tuesday. So I'm just gonna see Lauren during the day and then I'm also recording Monday, Tuesday. But this weekend I'm just with Margot. I think we're gonna go shopping in the city and whatever. So I have a lot of packing and a lot of things to do. I have clothes I need to bring to my friend's house and drop them off today. Also another thing. This like, I don't even know, is it loom cube? I will try to link it below. This is what we've been using to take all the Instagram photos that I've been posting lately. And then we take them on this camera which I'm not the kind of person to like not take photos on my iPhone but taking it on this camera with this light just makes your photos look incredible. I don't edit my photos at all. So it's straight up from this light and makes your skin look beautiful and it just makes everyone look incredible. So I'll probably also bring this. Actually I might bring it to Thanksgiving but I'll bring it to Margot as I think. I'm sorry if this is getting annoying but I just like can't stop thinking about I am so happy. Like life has truly never been better and I know I've been talking about this so much and it's honestly probably annoying to you guys at this point but I just am happy and I feel like I always talk about when I'm like confused and lost and like 23 sucks and whatever and I just can't get over it. Like my friends and I text every day how we're so happy and lucky and how many good things are coming up and I just feel like even better things are coming and I'm just so grateful. So I love you guys. I'm so grateful for you. If you're going through a hard time right now just know that I mean I too was quite honestly this year there's still been a lot of like hardships and like honestly like really difficult things happening as behind the scenes but I think I've finally learned or I'm learning how to also be like content and happy during that time and not let. What is it? What do they say like a sink doesn't ship because this is so cheesy. A sink doesn't ship because guys a ship doesn't sink. Not a sink doesn't ship. Yeah. Remember basically the sink only ships would be let the water in and yeah I feel like that's it but I'm just really in a good place and I'm very happy and also another thing like totally beside the point a few weeks ago and most of this year I've been like so against dating and I actually think I'm gonna start dating again like I've started responding to boys and my DMs and other people that have been texting me that I've just been completely ignoring. I think this started because one of Dom and one of our like best guy friends was like I really feel like you're gonna start like you're gonna start dating someone and that's gonna be it for you like very soon and that really freaked me out so now I'm just responding to every single person not because I wanna be with them but because I'm trying to prolong being with the right person if that makes sense. So maybe this isn't a good move you know what I mean but as soon as I heard that I was like I turned 25 next year, that's scary and I don't know what it was but it's not that I'm talking to these people thinking that they're gonna be the one it's more so that I'm talking to them because I'm like well I have no other time to talk to them if we're also convinced I'm gonna start dating someone soon which I don't think that I am but just the concept of like oh my God I never respond to anyone like I'm never gonna have time in my 20s where I've like dated and talked to people because like I don't give men attention at all like unless they're like a good friend of mine I completely ignore them. So yeah something I'm trying to work on but anyways today we're going to the Adolphus for tea if you guys are in Dallas. I'm sure reservations are booked but get on the wait list or something they have the holiday tea at the French room I've gone before I went to the French room like not that long ago but it wasn't holiday themed my grandma, my sister, technically my step sister and my niece are coming tonight my sister and my mom are busy so they're not going but I'm gonna dress really preppy and get excited so if it's getting a little bit too old for American girls so I'm oop so I'm gonna need to find a new niece so that I can go back to American girl at all so anyways I'm gonna do my hair, get ready and I'm probably gonna leave you as a little book update but I just love life, like I'm so happy it's so crazy and refreshing and just like I can't believe we're here like for so long I kept saying it's going to get better and I'm finally here I literally could cry every day I just think about how I'm so grateful like I don't even need to ride a car on a tea list so I think about it so anyways I'm gonna do my hair now and stop annoying you guys but I love you, okay. All right guys I just got dressed I'm wearing this coat that I got from my newly subscription I don't know exactly where it's from I can look later or I'll tag it actually on my Instagram this white top is just like an H&M white blouse the skirt is Princess Polly it's definitely super short but whatever my Gany rain boots which have also been the best purchase I've gotten so much wear out of them I love them I wish that like they were bigger I always have this issue I've talked about this with boots because my calves are bigger so I can like never wear them over jeans which is like what I wanna do so gotta figure that out but this is my outfit for tea I'm about to head off I'm meeting them there at the Adolphus so we're off Oh so cute Oh you wanna show them that? What is it? In note is Apple Cider You're crazy You can take some water by the way and squeeze it down to all the lines You're so pretty so You're so silky What do you need to do?
