Raising Three Savvy Ladies

NYC Lifestyle Blog

December 6, 2015 //

Getting Holiday Ready With Famous Footwear

The first weekend in December has always been a special time for my family.  My girls and I dress up and meet my parents at a local mansion to meet Santa Claus.

After visiting Santa, we visit the rooms in the mansion where a tree is decorated to the theme of a holiday book.  As a NYC native, this room was my absolute favorite.

Bartow Pell NYC Christmas Tree

Since it was such an unseasonably warm December day, we walked around the grounds and enjoyed some family time together.

Today was the perfect day to wear Dr. Scholl’s Jolly Ankle Boot. With a cushioned insole, I was on trend yet able to walk all around and enjoy the grounds.

Famous Footwear Holiday Traditions

When all the festivities at the mansion were over, it was time to head home to decorate our tree.  Once in the house, I slipped on my Minnetonka Britt Trapper Slipper

Holiday Decorating Famous Footwear

With all the excitement of getting ready for Christmas, my girls wanted to put on their new winter boots in hopes that it would help bring snow our way soon.  My youngest is wearing Kids’ Frozen Snow Day Winter Boot Toddler and Khombu Kids’ Darcie Winter Boot. An snow dance near the tree has occurred so let’s see if it helps bring snow!

After a super busy day filled with fun holiday activities, it was time to relax, get cozy and enjoy a look at our decorated tree.

Feeling all warm and cozy, we admired our hard work and holiday job well done!

We loved the great selection available at our nearby Famous Footwear store and Famous.com. To see what other shoes are available, check out the Famous Footwear #ohsofamous style gallery.

#ohsofamous is a fun place to get inspiration, explore what others are wearing, and see the variety that Famous Footwear offers.

Follow along with the #ohsofamous hashtag to get inspired by what others are wearing and share your own #ohsofamous moments.

How are you getting ready for the holidays?

    I never get or give shoes or boots for Christmas so I am thinking this year I will ask/give some. Famous Footwear is such a great store with a huge selection.

So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macy So happy to kick off the holiday season with @macys and Santa! Last night, we took the train into the city to preview #Macys #Santaland I have to say it was quite magical. Although my youngest was 12, Santa was able to connect to her and put us all in the holiday spirit. 

I believe. I believe….

My mom also came with us. We started talking and I think it was almost 40 years ago that she took us to visit Santa at Macys. I was so happy to visit Santa with her and my youngest for a three generation experience.

Don’t forget to check out the beautiful window displays as you enjoy all of #NYC during the holidays!

#ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but #ad Mental health isn’t talked about enough, but 1 in 5 adults suffer from mental illness and disorders today. 

Let’s reduce the stigma by opening up the conversation in the classroom and at home.
As a teacher and a mom of 3, I know how important it is to be there and be a good listener.

Conversations are super important. It’s never too early (or too late) to have these conversations with your students or your own children.

Operation Conversation is a check-in on kids’ mental health. When we start simple habits of conversations, we can learn about concerns or problems our students are dealing with, help them problem solve, and build their confidence for life’s difficult moments. 

Teachers can help to destigmatize mental health starting in their own classrooms by talking to their students about mental health using a free deck of conversation starter cards. Parents can also use these cards to support good conversations while at home. I know as a mom, I can use all the help I can get. 

#Giveaway Alert! 
I have 5 decks of Conversation Starter Decks of cards to give away to 5 lucky winners to help you get the conversation flowing! 

To enter:
1. Comment on this post as to why you would love the conversation starter deck of cards. 
 2. Follow @OnOurSleevesOfficial
3. Follow me @SavvyMomNY  I will pick the winners after 10pm on 11/22

Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest Took a little trip upstate 💚 Visiting my oldest and touring her sister on first college visit. Maybe it’s a sign that they should be together. Totally bittersweet and we went to visit Binghamton in October 2019 and only made it to two more before March 2020. I’m only thinking of bright skies ahead for the both of them filled with amazing memories and wonderful opportunities 💚

New York state has so many wonderful places to be New York state has so many wonderful places to be a part of . From the bright lights of NYC, to quiet places of respite in its parks and wooded areas. Time to walk, hike and reflect. Being active and busy is something that I hope my teens learn from and something we can do together to enjoy all the beauty and nature it has to offer while keeping NY tobacco free. Did you know that our oldest generation of smokers are now dying? After them, you have me and a very large group of people who do not smoke at all. So, who’s next? Instead of taking cigarettes off the shelves, the tobacco industry views today’s teens as tomorrow’s customers, using menthol-flavored products to attract and addict kids – and it’s working. More than half (54%) of youth who smoke (ages 12-17 years) use menthol cigarettes. making it easier for kids to start and harder for them to quit. Menthol is not JUST a flavor, it attracts and addicts kids As a teen mom, I am sharing this so we can all take action! Learn more about the impact of Big Tobacco’s manipulative tactics on our communities and how you can take action to help end this injustice. Let’s keep our kids enjoying the wonderful things our state has to offer. Link in bio #NotJustMenthol #TobaccoFreeNYS #ad @tobaccofreenys
