Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas

'Tis the season for one of my favorite holidays. How could you not love a holiday that includes food, football, and family?! Whether you're having a relaxing Thursday or a nice holiday dinner, here are some great outfit ideas. 

Links:

Pajama Top // Pajama Pants // Slippers

If you're like me, Thanksgiving is for relaxing with family watching the parade and, this year, the Carolina Panthers game. This festive yet comfy outfit is perfect for enjoying pumpkin pie in front of the TV.

Plaid Shirt // Faux-Leather Mini Skirt // Pointy Flats // Gold Studs

This is the option for the person that wants to get a bit more dressed up but still wants a relaxed outfit. When I saw this faux-leather mini on J. Crew I absolutely knew that it had to be paired with a boyfriend flannel. The contrast but between the two fabrics and the structured skirt next to the loose shirt is unexpectedly interesting.

Dress // Tassel Bracelet // Scarf // Booties

This outfit is perfect for Thanksgiving dinner. For colder weather, just add some simple tights. The simple shirt dress is perfect for eating lots of stuffing and mashed potatoes. 

This year, I am thankful for y'all! Thank you to everyone who has been reading my blog! Get excited because I have some great Christmas related posts coming up! 

Happy Holidays! 

November Playlist

Here is what I can't stop listening to in the month of November.

What do you have on replay this month?

Winter Skin Care

I love everything about winter. I love that I can wear scarves everyday, the air gets crisp, and all the wonderful holidays that come around. There is one thing that I do not enjoy during this time though, and that is dry skin. After many years of dealing with dry skin, I have come across several must need products to get me through the cold months. 

Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+

I have easily been using this moisturizing for five years and have probably gone through three bottles. It is light and does not feel heavy on the skin but does its job effectively. There are no perfumes and is kind on my sensitive skin. Honestly, I don't think I have to go on about this product because, as one of the best selling moisturizers of all time, it is pretty well known.

Rosebud Salve

You will see that there is common theme with these products and it is that my sister makes great suggestions. She swears by this lip balm and now so do I. It keeps my lips from getting chapped and also has a great rosey tint. While I use it mainly as a lip balm, it can be used for rough hands, blemishes, and burns.

Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream

I suffer from extremely dry cuticles, and anyone else suffering knows how awful it is. This is another suggested product from my sister. Throughout high school, I kept this in my backpack and during down times would rub this onto my cuticles. It repairs the cracked areas and keeps them soft and moisturized. 

Eucerin Intensive Repair Lotion

My other three products have been favorites of mine for years, but this one is a recent discovery of mine. After a lot of research, I have found that this is the best all over, skin care lotion. It has no scent, goes on lightly, and has almost instant results. I apply this after I shower, before I go to bed, and whenever needed. I have seen a dramatic difference in my skin.

How do you keep good care of your skin during the winter?

What's Hot Now

Here is what I'm currently loving in the month of November.

Kate Spade's Madison Ave. Collection // If my style could be summed up in a single collection, I think it would be this one. I first came across the collection when I saw this picture of Karlie Kloss. Besides the fact that I absolutely adore Kloss, I loved the clutch she was holding and had to find out more. Between the big bows, over the top hats, and clean silhouettes, I just can't get over how much I want it all.  

Dior and I // On November 14, Dior and I is coming to Netflix. I'm a sucker for a good fashion documentary and from the reviews I've read, this is said to be one of the best. My sophomore year of high school, I studied the Dior house and became enamored by the revolutionary style for women in a time when we needed it the most. Don't miss this documentary! 

Glamour's Women of the Year // There's nothing I love more than women supporting women. This year, Glamour honored amazing women such as Misty Copeland, Caitlyn Jenner, Reese Witherspoon, and Victoria Beckham. All of these women are strong, beautiful, and inspiring. Check out all the honorees and their stories.

Get Cozy

As the temperature keeps dropping, I keep reaching for big, cozy knits. Lately, I have been living in warm cabin socks, oversized pullover sweaters, and my moccasin slippers. This cute and comfy style is so versatile that I can wear it for both class and when relaxing. Here are some of my favorite cozy-cute pieces for this season.

Boot Socks // UGG Slippers // Knit Scarf // Cable Turtleneck // Free People Pullover

The Arie boot socks are currently buy one get one 50% off.

The Free People pullover is 40% off at Nordstrom until November 15.
