Falling for Midi Skirts

WOW! 

It's been a minute since I wrote an outfit blog post.

Things have been so crazy lately. I have a million ideas for the blog and ZERO time to execute I feel like.  

Anyway, today I am very excited to share this outfit with you. It's something I will be wearing on repeat the next few months. 

It would also make a great Thanksgiving outfit which is why I forced myself to sit down and write this post.

Let's get into it shall we?

Every Fall I rediscover my love of midi skirts.

Not to say I don't wear them in the Spring or Summer, but there's something about Fall that makes me gravitate towards them more. 

I saw this one probably 2 months ago when I was browsing online and immediately added it to my cart. 

I loved the pleats and the color was so pretty. It was also very different from anything I had in my closet.

I had envisioned pairing it with a sweater to keep it kind of dressy, but when I got this sweatshirt in the mail I knew it would be perfect with this skirt.

I like the casual meets dressy look because you can be comfy while still looking put together.

This is also why it would make an amazing Thanksgiving outfit. 

The skirt will make you look put together, but you can still be super cozy in a sweatshirt. It's also an elastic waist skirt which is always ideal for Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Outfit Inspo take 2

 I'm back with another Thanksgiving outfit idea for y'all.

This is another pretty casual look. We usually keep things pretty laid back for Thanksgiving so nothing too fancy.

(I promise to try and share a dressier option next week.)

I actually wore this outfit to brunch one day when we were in Asheville. I bought this top in the Summer with the intent to wear it in the fall. The colors just really scream Fall to me. I also love the tie neck detail. You can leave it open, tie it halfway like I did or tie it all the way into a bow if that's your thing. I paired it here with some of my favorite jeans and booties. Since it was a little on the warmer side in Asheville I went with booties, but I would also wear these knee high boots if it was colder. 

Top: Parkside Harbor | Denim: Old (similar here & here) | Booties: Old (similar here, here, & here) | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Purse: Rebecca Minkoff | Lipstick: Buxom Full Force Plumping Lipstick in Influencer

I'm so curious to know what everyones holiday plans are this year? I think we are keeping things small. Are you keeping things to close family or going all out? If you're keeping things small for Thanksgiving are you also keeping things small for Christmas? 

Let me know in the comments below. 

Thanksgiving Outfit Inspo

 Can y'all believe it's already November? October seriously flew by.

With it being November 3rd I'm sure Thanksgiving is on a lot of people's mind. I'm sure things might look a little different as far as gatherings go this year, but hopefully you'll be seeing at least some family and or friends on that day. 

With that being said I wanted to start giving y'all some Turkey Day outfit inspo.

I bought this bodysuit a couple months ago with the thought that it would be perfect for Fall. I love burnt orange for this time of year. And I love a bodysuit even more. I feel like this outfit is perfect for a casual Thanksgiving get together. (Maybe loose the hat for dinner.)

These boots are one of my favorites from 2 years ago. If you wanted to be a little more casual/comfortable you could also pair it with some booties. I would probably go with my taupe suede ones. 

Bodysuit: Abercrombie (similar here & here) | Denim: Old (similar here & here) | Boots: Old (almost identical here) | Hat: Pink Lily | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Earrings: Amazon | Lipstick: Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk

I'm not 100% sure yet what our Thanksgiving plans are. Whatever we end up doing this outfit is definitely a strong contender. Check back on Thursday for another Turkey Day outfit option. It will be another casual outfit. I don't currently have any dressy options planned, but let me know if that is something y'all would like to see and we can make it happen.

Free People Knits

 This outfit is definitely my new favorite. I also love how it came together so last minute. I was heading out to shoot and wanted to make sure I had 3 outfits. I tried something else on and it didn't work out the way it did in my head. Then I had this idea and it worked out PERFECTLY!

This is the famous Free People sweater and I was so happy I snagged it during the Nsale. (Actually my friend Catherine snagged it. When she tried it on she didn't like it so she sold it to me. Thanks Cat!) 

I think it is definitely worth the hype. It's super soft, cozy and extremely warm. (It was also close to 90 the day we shot this.)

My skit is another Free People find that y'all have seen more than a few times. (Last seen here)

I honestly never thought about pairing the two together when I purchased them, but here we are. My love for neutrals and a good monochromatic look lead us here. I love how the two are similar colors but not exactly the same. I also love that they are both a knit. That was the thing that I was most worried about when I thought of pairing the two together. However this was one of those times where I pictured an outfit in my head and it worked out perfectly. 

The sweater comes in a few other color options and the skirt comes in about 15 color options. In case tan/beige isn't your thing. 

Sweater: Free People | Skirt: Free People | Hat: Pink Lily | Booties: Old (similar here & here) | Necklace: Amazon | Earrings: Amazon | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Lipstick: Buxom Full Force Plumping Lipstick in Influencer

I'd like to also point out that this would be a great Thanksgiving outfit. It might seem a little crazy to be saying that, but Halloween is Saturday and Thanksgiving will be here before we know it. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and a Happy Halloween.
