It’s Holiday Movie Time!
It’s the holiday season, which means time for holiday movie pajama nights! Let’s face it, it’s cold and dark outside and there’s no better reason to stay in, get cozy, and watch a holiday classic with some hot cocoa and kettle corn!
Today we’re sharing our top ten favorite holiday movies:
1. White Christmas – Nothing says classic holiday like White Christmas and Bing Crosby. This is a must-watch for the music and dancing. So fun!
2. The Muppet Christmas Carol – The Muppet characters tell the story of the classic Dickens holiday tale. We all need a little Miss Piggy and Kermit around the holidays!
3. Holiday Inn – Another classic musical holiday movie complete with the team of Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire. The song “White Christmas” actually originated from this movie.
4. Elf – The goofy story of Buddy the Elf played by Will Farrell. Totally silly and super cute!
5. Christmas Vacation – The Griswold family – need we say more? In my family it’s a requirement to watch this movie at least once during the holidays. Cousin Eddie and company will get you every time.
6. The Holiday – A love story split between LA and the English country side. This one will give you a great boost of holiday spirit (and is worth watching just to see the scenes of Kate Winslett’s character’s majestic English cottage!)
7. Love Actually – Such a feel good movie, with an a-list cast, and a heart-warming message that “love is actually all around us”…
8. How the Grinch Stole Christmas – Jim Carrey is fantastic and really funny as the Grinch in this Dr. Suess classic. Best described as magical.
9. T’was the Night Before Christmas – If you haven’t seen it, this is the story of a town coming together to get back on Santa’s nice list after he gets an insulting letter. Trust me, the singing mice don’t disappoint!
10. Frosty the Snowman – I look forward to watching this one every year. Another magical movie with lots of heart.

Pajama Spotlight: Kashwere
Kashwére features very stylish “cashmere like” products at “un-cashmere like” prices. These robes are amazingly soft with the luxurious feel of cashmere, yet only you will know it’s not cashmere! Best of all, the fabric can be machine washed and dried without worries of wrinkles or shrinkage! Kashwére even recycles your dryer’s heat to return the garment to its original softness.
The moment you slip into a Kashwere robe you will feel the unforgettable warmth and softness that has so many Kashwere clients smiling. The Kashwere robe is luxuriously soft with the feel of a fluffy cloud. The robe is generously sized with a double loop belt for easier fitting. Go ahead, pamper yourself in luxury, and experience the cashmere like softness without the cashmere prices.
Kashwere Celebs like Tiffany Amber Thiessen love these so so soft robes. Experience Kashwere and you’ll wonder how you ever survived without it!
These robes come in several beautiful colors, and we even have matching, equally warm and cozy lounging socks made from the same luxurious fabric. A great his & her gift!

Fall Pajama Reading List
“Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog it’s too dark to read.”
-Groucho Marx
I don’t know about you, but falling leaves, golden light, and cooler temps just make me want to curl up with a cup of tea and get lost in a great book! Here are the books making the top of our fall reading list…
First, here’s a book recommendation, from Ellie, our very own President and Founder:
Phantom Instinct by Meg Gardiner
There is nothing better than starting a book you simply cannot put down. My favorite writer extraordinaire of thrillers is my friend Meg Gardiner. Her latest book, out this past summer, “Phantom Instinct” appeared on the “Best Books of Summer” for O Magazine. The Associated Press said this about “Phantom Instinct”:
“’Phantom Instinct’ is simply a fantastic story, told at breakneck speed. Gardiner is one of the best thriller writers around, and this is arguably her best work yet. ‘Phantom Instinct’ is full of action and surprises and a few new twists… Gardiner’s latest stand-alone is one of this summer’s best reads.” Associated Press
The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
Initially I was intimidated by the 775 page count and somewhat mixed reviews, by I really loved this book. I was pulled in by Theo the main character and found the plot very intriguing, from the tragic death of his mother through an unusual journey of relationships, trauma, guilt, and crime – all with the Goldfinch interwoven.
Sister by Rosamund Lupton
When her pregnant sister Tess goes missing and eventually found dead, Bee does everything she can to get to the bottom of what really happened to her sister. A page-turning thriller!
The Husband’s Secret by Liane Moriarty
Set in Australia, this was a great story about three women who’s lives intersect in an unexpected way – with a secret that changes them all. This is a puzzle of a story and I found it interesting and suspenseful. Looking forward to reading more from this author!
Magic Hour by Kristen Hannah
This is a heartwarming and surprising tale of a young, feral girl who is found abandoned in a tree in the town of Rain Valley, in the Pacific Northwest, and the psychiatrist to cares for her. A good story!
