Way to Layer

There is nothing quite like a little walk at Pike Place while munching on a delicious croissant and sipping hot apple cider. Winter here in Seattle is quite chilly actually, as I am writing this the snow is gently falling creating a beautiful white blanket.
When Winter clothes come to mind most people would think of the dark neutrals. But I tend to lean toward adding pops of color to a more neutral outfit.

Black Friday Inventory

So as most of you know, Thanksgiving is a time for getting together with the family. However, some of you might also be aware of the day after Thanksgiving is Black Friday, a.k.a chaotic shopping time. The professional Black Friday shoppers know the secret that Black Friday is actually a lie *gasps* its technically Black Thursday. Many stores open Thursday night at around 8 p.m. This is the perfect time to buy all those holiday gifts for everyone you love (and yourself). But if you're me it means cardio for burning off that Thanksgiving dinner, and an excuse to put more clothes into the closet!
As of this year I just got promoted to professional Black Friday shopper. Yay! This year was the first year in which I decided to get a bunch of my friends and go Black Friday shopping at 9 p.m. Thanksgiving Day. Yep we were those crazy girls who line up for the malls. For those of you who have not gone Black Friday shopping before I suggest you do, BUT make sure you wear comfy shoes and have a cup of Starbucks with you to keep you awake!
On Black Friday I picked up quite a few items as you can see. There were some great sales; including the sale at Macy's where I picked up that gorgeous lavender dress (which I still haven't found an occasion to wear it too...Oops). Did I mention that it was buy one get one FREE?! Definitely one of the better sales. 
How was your Thanksgiving weekend?
