I for real cannot believe that Thursday is Thanksgiving. September seemed to last for two years, but October and November have absolutely flown by!
Last-Minute Thanksgiving Outfits

Fall Athleisure
I kind of have a reputation at work for hating pants. That doesn’t mean I run around without them on, but give me stretchy pants and dresses over regular pants ANY DAY. And because of my disdain for pants, I obviously love me some athleisure. But y’all also know that I love a good deal, so no $100 yoga pants for this girl! How would you feel if I told you this entire outfit, including the Nike shoes, is less than $100?!
“Pumpkin Weather” Pullover
One of my favorite times during fall is when it gets cool enough to wear cozy pullovers. I fondly refer to this time as “pumpkin weather.” I’d love to live somewhere that has a long stretch of fall. Even though I love summer because of being on break, fall is definitely my favorite time of year! Continue reading
Sweatshirt Season With a Side of Perforated Booties
Y’all, I’m SO HAPPY for two reasons – it finally feels like fall in my part of North Carolina, and sweatshirts are back in a huge way.
A Little Edgy
One of the things I love about clothes and makeup is that you can change up your persona daily! You can frequently find me in ruffles and heels (or yoga pants), but sometimes I like to change it up!

And then I got hooked… Continue reading
The Plaid Shirtdress
While playing along with the #wearwhatwhereseptember stylechallenge on Instagram (which is so much fun – you should definitely join in!), I posted a picture of a plaid dress (below) and received some questions about where I found it.
Unfortunately, I bought the dress several years ago from Old Navy, but today I’m providing links to several plaid dresses from Old Navy and Red Dress Boutique that are available now and are all under $50! Happy shopping and enjoy your long weekend!

The Plaid Cardigan
Y’all. It’s still in the 90s here. All bloggers and Instagrammers are posting pictures of their cute fall clothes, and I start sweating if I even hear the phrase ‘long sleeves.’ This sweet little cardigan arrived in my mailbox last week and has me wishing even harder for fall!
Splurge or Save – The Wedge Bootie
It’s still in the solid 90s in my part of North Carolina, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t set my sights on some fall clothing items. Wishful thinking for cooler weather? For sure.
The wedge bootie appears to be back for round 2 this fall. Continue reading
