Sweater: TJ Maxx Skirt: gift Tights: Target Shoes: GUESS (via DSW) Scarf: gift
I have been dying to use these orange tights I picked up late last winter (or early spring), but I've been having trouble figuring out how to do it! I love the orange with the deep teal color. For whatever reason I always feel like wearing orange around Thanksgiving. I'm ready for some turkey! Are people still wearing pretty colored tights or is it just me?
I grabbed this sweater on a whim off the clearance rack at Target. It was $10 and beautiful and my size, so, I didn't even try it on! It is easily one of the softest snuggliest sweaters I've ever owned! I also wore it to Thanksgiving with my husbands family. I've only owned it for 3 days and its already doing double duty!

Participating in blue Friday did me no good! I did it but we lost :( Maybe next time I'll avoid blue Friday! It is only weird if it doesn't work.
This post is late. Sorry about that! We hosted Thanksgiving with my husband's paternal family. They are tons of fun, but at the end of that day I had nothing left for writing a fashion-y post for you! priorities people! Has anyone else ever hosted Thanksgiving? Do you enjoy hanging out with your family?
Have you ever worked on something so long, something that was so irritating and outrageous and then when it was done, you have no idea how you survived. (forgive the run-on sentence) This is what we experienced today. It is almost as if we all warriors who survived a battle together!
This outfit works perfectly for a day in pretend war. This blazer is a great classic. It fits so well and it will probably never go out of style.
I felt very put together wearing this! Sadly, this blouse is a static magnet! I really don't like static, so I end up spending time all day dampening the top to get that static out.
Every time I feel cold, but don't feel like wearing tights, I reach for these boots. Sometimes it is nice to have a comfort zone to retreat to!
When I see this outfit, I can't help but to fall more and more in love with this sweater. I wore it a LOT on out trip to europe in the spring, so it also has a nice memory attached to it. Also it is the perfect weight. As Goldie-locks would say, it is not too thick and not to thin.

This weather is in between truly cold and fall. These are the days when I have trouble deciding if I want to wear tights with my skirts or not. Usually if the high is above the 30's I'll go tights free!
I love the print of this dress, but I've had a terrible time styling it. Sadly, I don't think this belt is the right answer either. I'm thinking a blazer could go a long way to help create a nice shape and tone down the print just a little.
How have people been wearing their brightly colored denim? I've found myself doing a lot of neutrals. It is a pretty safe way to always get it right. At least this time I had the added texture of the nifty pleats on the top. Those pleats and that snazzy necklace add just the perfect touch of beauty.
If you've followed this blog for any length of time, you know I'm a big Indianapolis Colts fan. We had the chance to play in Thursday Night Football. Many counted us out after our last game, so it is no surprise that I reached for my Colts blue blazer this morning! Tell me I'm not the only one that finds a way to show a little team spirit in the office?
Sometimes I try to dress "quintessentially" fall. To me that means orange, jewel tones, tights and boots. If I took it one step further I'd be wearing a pumpkin! I've been straying from my brights a little lately, so this is a shootout to my brightly colored roots.
It snowed! We had a little dusting in November and I'm not quite ready for snow. I don't yet have my winter skin, so I'm a pansy. I put on my warmest pants this morning to help with the cold snowy weather.
These herringbone babies are fun to wear, and lucky for me they go with anything. At first, I thought I liked this best without the scarf, but now I've decided it was a nice touch. It adds just the right print to play off of the herringbone.

Off I go into this week! I have tons to get done, and all I need is a little focus. Today I actually like the simplicity of this outfit. The pink and grey play so well off of each other. I tried using a zebra print belt with this, but it wasn't as sleek as the matching great option. I hope your Monday was as sleek and modern as my pink and grey outfit!
