Hooray for Friday! This week at we heart this we celebrated our four year anniversary with a European Holy Grail Beauty Product Giveaway, went a little gaga over the latest Riri hearts MAC holiday collection, and demanded bareMinerals show us the shimmer with their Marvelous Moxie lipgloss set. But life is about more than beauty products, here are a few links that made us happy this week:

• My sweet black cat Giles had a medical emergency over the Thanksgiving weekend. He’s fine now – better than fine in fact. When he came home from the vets he had his first snuggling experience with his new dog housemate, Charlie. Sadly, Charlie is not much of a cuddler (with other animals at least) but for one afternoon, he allowed Giles to curl up around his feet and purr. Look how content Giles looks in that picture!

• It’s been years since Gilmore Girls went off the air – but I still miss it! For my fellow fans wondering what happened to the residents of Stars Hollow, Vulture has the answers – Gilmore Girls Alumni: Where Are They Now?

• It is officially hat, scarf and glove season! While these toppers curated by The Cut may not provide a lot of warmth, they are great to look at! – The 50 Most Remarkable Hats of All Time

• We’re almost a month from the new year, but Pantone has already declared the Color of Year 2014! Honestly, I’m a little iffy on this one. What do you all think? – Radiant Orchid Color of 2014
