Fall In Love with Fall Fashion

As much as I know we’re all sad to see Summer end, Fall happens to be my favorite time of year. I love seeing the leaves change colors and of course who doesn’t love a good Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks right? Also there’s something to be said about starting out a season with a clean fashion slate so to speak. Forgetting those mistakes you made last season (you know what I’m talking about with the short shorts) and covering up a little with layers upon layers of this season’s softest and yummiest fabrics. Here are some of my favorite looks from retailers in store and online. Get ’em while they’re hot!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday because it involves spending time with friends and family while enjoying a wonderful meal.  Since I’m cooking most of the day I like to be comfortable (skinny jeans, sweater, flats) and then I change into something nicer right before the meal is ready to be served.  Whether you’re slaving away in the kitchen or attending a holiday feast as a guest here are my top 5 looks for Thanksgiving.
