Happy Wednesday {for me Happy Friday} !

 

I hope everyone is getting ready for lots of turkey and fixings tomorrow!  I will be celebrating with meatless beef-tips and veggie-friendly side dish on the table.  With my parents now living in Ohio, I spend Thanksgiving with my husband's family here in NC.  My mother-in-law is sweet enough to make me a vegetarian dish every Thanksgiving even though they are complete carnivores.  She has even started making meat-free collards, stuffing and baked beans so I feel like I am experiencing everything Thanksgiving has to offer.  It truly is heart-warming since I am so far away from my own family each year.  While I love my in-laws dearly, it gets harder each year to be separated from my family on a day in which the entire premise is to be with a celebrate loved ones.  But I do have an infinite amount to be thankful for.  I hope you all take a few moments tomorrow to forget about blogging, Black Friday and wish-lists to remember what is truly important in your life. 

 

Ok, on to the fun stuff.  Confession time - I have had this faux-leather peplum top hanging in my closet for at least 2 months now and have yet to wear it.  It was random $15 find at TJ Maxx one day, and I have been waiting for just the right time to wear it and I have completely forgotten about it.  I kept telling myself once I found the perfect necklace I would dust it off and share it with the world.  Enter this marbled beauty from Happy Wrist .  I loved how the thick acrylic chain paired with the edgy faux-leather, and the snakeskin clutch was just a perfect match. 

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  Thanks for reading.  Linkups below!

Happy Tuesday!  I hope everyone has warmed up from that cold blast we got over the weekend. I was not at all prepared for the chilly temps, but luckily I had just scooped up this cozy sweater from TJ Maxx and had an excuse to wear it.  It just might be the softest piece of clothing I own, and at just $15 I might have to go pick up one in every color they have.  This is what I wore to and from the fashion show on Sunday and is generally my go-to outfit for weekends.  It was super comfy and easy to get in and out of for outfit changes at the show.  I loved having the strap on this Dooney & Bourke so my hands were free to carry outfits and accessories, and this pair of Paige skinnies are my absolute favorites right now.

 

These chunky bracelets from Happy Wrist were the perfect touch to this casual fall look.  I love adding thick bracelets to the arm party when I am wearing heavier sweaters, and these rose gold and black enamel bracelets are just that.  Happy Wrist carries such a great variety of trendy pretties that won't break the bank.  I already have a few other goodies saved on my wish-list.
