Odds and Ends 12.20.24
Christmas traditions, splendid sweaters, mini (doable) resolutions, decaf espresso martinis FTW!
30 unique ways Christmas is celebrated around the world.
Listen, I was 50 years old when I learned that you can have a decaf espresso martini and now I’m a changed woman. I want to try all 3 of these.
I just received this sweater and it’s so pretty it almost makes me cry. WHOORL15 for 15% off + free overnight shipping. (For the first time ever I have a discount code for Frame! It even works on sale items - they added tons of new markdowns last night.)
What should we make of America’s newfound health wave?
I am obviously partial to dark hair and some of these colors rouse me to dye this virgin hair o’ mine. #iwont
I’m so happy my favorite moisturizer comes in a travel size. WHOORL20 for 20% off.
All in on the Christmas tree bow trend.
2024’s most stunning space photos.
I’m back on Rare Beauty. Forgot how much I loved this blush in Hope and this highlighter in Enlighten.
If you’re looking for a last-minute Christmas movie, surely one of these will hit the spot.
20% off full-size fragrances at Sephora!
I agree that the luxury market has hit obscene prices, but is it really in a death spiral?
If deep red is your thing, this sweater simply can’t be beat. (It’s featured in my IG Try-Ons Highlight if you missed it earlier this week.)
I’m not a shimmer-in-lip-gloss kind of gal EXCEPT for this one. (And if shimmer is an absolute NO, the shades Pistachio, Sesame, and Coconut are gorgeous.)
Little ways to make positive change in your life. Solid resolutions.
20% off new subscriptions to my weekly In Whoorl We Trust newsletter! Join the mishmash of midlife - special ends 12/31.

I learned about the decaf espresso martini from a South Philly server who told me that when he has a table ordering rounds and rounds of them, he eventually switches them to decaf because “I’m not dealing with someone who has an espresso martini heart attack” 😂
