Happy Thanksgiving y'all!

A Starbucks Morning

Sweater&Tunic: Thrifted/ Leggings: Old Navy/ Boots: Target

I've been waiting for it to be chilly enough to wear this sweater since it got too warm last spring. It was finally cool enough! The sweater & dress/tunic were thrifted, and everything else was picked up on sale. This was one of those "I really don't want to wear pants, but I don't want to wear my pajama's in public" outfits. I have those more often then not in the cooler months. I'm not the only one like that, am I? Anyway, this was comfy enough to curl up in my favorite seat with a hot vanilla (newest fav drink. SO good.), but decent enough to go get coffee with a friend & window shop. Seriously, the best kind of lazy day outfit. 

I'm an excitable person. If I'm really thrilled about something, I may bounce & squeal...which is what I did when I found these jeans. Calvin Klein skinny jeans for $3.50! There wasn't anything wrong with them, other then the small rip pictured below. It took me maybe a minute, and they were fixed and perfect. :) 

After I fixed them, I couldn't wait to wear them! What's the point of having fabulous new jeans if they're just going to sit, right? I found this top for $10 on the clearance rack at TJ Maxx. It's actually a bathing suit cover-up, but I thought it was just a perfect top in general. This whole outfit, necklace & earrings included, cost less then $40. My kind of outfit!

Is there such a thing as too much leopard? 'Cuz I totally don't think so. 

I used to hate skinny jeans. I thought they were only for the incredibly slim & very tall. They're definitely now my favorite cut though. These jeans were picked up from a thrift store for $3.50 & I had to put a little patch on them since there was a hole. But still, Gap jeans for $3.50...major win in my book! I don't think I paid full price for anything in this outfit either! Pretty sweet. Also, these are my fav photos taken so far for this blog. Who doesn't love a dirty parking lot + a water filled background?! I do. :)

Stripes

So the only part of this outfit that was thrifted was the scarf, but it's also my favorite part of the whole thing! I love mixing stripes + florals. It's so fun. I wore this thinking it would be perfect for the day, but was very wrong. It ended up being incredibly warm that day! Total bummer, right? I think I ended up changing halfway through the day because I got so warm. Scarf + sweater + hot day = bad combination.

Brunch Wear

I love brunch. If I could eat it everyday, life would be fabulous. This was what I threw on for a brunch date with the hubby while my oldest was in school. I didn't want to wear a whole lot of color, so I compromised. Black + animal print + statement scarf. I think it's a combination that always works...and those are my favorite flats, so I wear them with just about everything. The black sweater is another favorite, an oldie (spring 2010) from Express. But Kiki La'Rue has something almost identical right now. Sadly, this outfit didn't even last the day. It just got too warm! Am I the only one who just wishes the weather would stay cool? I'm ready for scarf & boot weather 24/7 y'alll. 

Lacy

Selfies...gotta love 'em. This was a "I don't feel like getting dressed" look. Really lazy, but quite comfortable. I didn't even bother to put any makeup on that day. The lace top was an impulse (aren't they all?) buy from a resale store for only a few bucks. I'm thinking about dying it, but we'll see...  The cuff is from Purple Peridot. Y'all check her out! Everything I've bought from there I've loved, especially since it's super affordable & cute.
