I hope you all are enjoying the holiday season! Matthew and I were down in San Diego the past few days celebrating Christmas with his family and today we’re in LA celebrating with mine. I love spending time with family and friends and honestly the biggest gift is just being together. It was a little hard spending my first Christmas away from my family but being able to Face Time with them was amazing. It was like those cheesy Apple commercials, that always make me tear up! We’re so lucky we have our family close by though and I try not to take for granted. I hope all of you who celebrated had a very merry Christmas! I’ll be back to regular posting tomorrow!
I love picking out gifts for friends and family during the holidays. It’s always fun to hunt for cute, and affordable, things that you know will make someone you love happy. Accessories are one of my main standards for the women in my life. I love finding a pretty bracelet or pair of earrings that they wouldn’t normally buy for themselves. I also love giving home items. Candles, for example, are something you can never have too many of! At least that’s my opinion {don’t ask Matthew!}.
Welcome to M Loves M! My name is Mara and I created this lifestyle site in 2009 as a place to share my love of fashion, beauty, food and entertaining. I moved from Southern California to Idaho and love adventuring with my husband Matthew, our two children, and our dog Ginger. We're also pregnant with baby #3, due this autumn! I strive to create a site that’s relatable to women, while also being inspirational. I’m so glad you stopped by!
