What I wore to Thanksgiving

This year, my cousin hosted our family Thanksgiving at her new home, vegan and gluten-free style. The invitation stated to dress comfy---pajamas optional, in fact. What to wear?

My stretchy Cabi cargo skinny’s to the rescue. I love that I can wear them with just about any shoe or boot (in this case, my Lucky Brand booties) and the green color is becoming a new neutral for me. The side pockets lay flat, but add an additional detail. I tossed on my “beautiful chaos” tee from a local shop, Mainstream Boutique. My final layer was a warm cardi from TJ Maxx and I was good to go.

Fall Back Jacket

It’s been ten days since daylight savings ended. I used to look forward to “falling back” each year, but now….meh. I’m so sleep deprived. One more hour is not going to remove the baggage under these eyes!

Have you been to Target lately? Dumb question, I know. My Target recently revamped the clothing section and I’m loving some of the boho tops and new items for fall. I came across this pleather jacket—they carry it in grey and black. I love the knitted collar! It has a bit of a motorcycle jacket look to it, but its shape is classic enough to wear to work too.

I paired it with some skinnies, but it think it will also look great with a fall maxi dress. I’ve been dreaming about this one by Free People….gorgeous!

In other news, I broke down and purchased my first selfie stick in hopes I won’t have to bug my husband for blog outfit photos as often. This is the best one I could get. Needless to say, it will take some time to, ahem, perfect my technique! I’m wearing a green cargo jacket from Kensie I picked up at TJ Maxx. It has a gathered waste, so it gives me a little shape. I’ve been wearing it everywhere! Get those fall jackets out and enjoy them before the snowflakes fly and you have to cover everything up with a giant parka.

Leggings for Fall

We have had beautiful weather this fall. It almost feels like a late summer, in fact. I love this time of year. Bright orange and red leaves on the trees, cooler weather at night, everyone is making soup and my leggings make an appearance at least twice a week! I’ve been in the market for new leggings. They can’t be too thin—no one wants to see my underwear when I bend over. They can’t be so thick that I walk like a zombie. They need to look like PANTS, not something I threw on at the gym. I found my holy grail of leggings through Cabi. I know, I know…Cabi clothes are sold at those “home parties” that everyone dreads, but seriously….these leggings are totally worth it! They are completely opaque and have a nice texture that gives when I move around. They hold their shape and have this unique seam down the front and back of my legs—hello, leg lengthening optical illusion! They are snug enough to fit under my knee-high boots, but also look great with short booties or flats. This week, I paired them with a sweater I picked up at American Eagle Outfitters, black wrap belt and black boots. Easy, comfy and I don’t look like I am headed to yoga class later. Boom!
