TFNC top/dress* (via Asos), Dynamite shorts, Aldo booties (last seen here), unknown tights,
Auslini bangle & Suzy earrings
My family celebrated Thanksgiving this year on Saturday. Partly because my sister is engaged and her fiance always does theirs on Sunday and partly because we had family come from out of town (yay!) to celebrate with us.
I wore the perfect outfit for eating and I got to rock my new faux leather shorts with tights for the first time, a massively flowy top that I ordered from Asos months ago (and it's been sitting in my closet) and booties. The weather was warm (mid-twenties) and beautiful. A true Indian Summer Thanksgiving. And of course I ate a ton of food (yes, I went back for seconds, and yes I had not one but two pieces of pie) and enjoyed every bite.
* I bought this top/dress in a size large, hoping it would be flowy. I got more than I bargained for as it's quite large. I definitely should have ordered a medium but didn't want the hassle of making the exchange, etc.

Late night sounds:
* wind
* sirens
* rumble of cars on the street below
* low music
* my neighbour getting home
* my mind telling me to turn off the computer and go to sleep...
Don`t ask a man what`s important to him,
just watch how he spends his time. -unknown

Friday! You are finally here and you have been missed. I'm so excited for this long weekend, mainly to catch up on sleep. I've been pulling late nighters (not to be confused with all-nighters) all week and when you're supposed to get up at 6:15am and you don't get up till 7:15am, that tends to make one verrry late for work. I have this problem though: I hate going to bed. I love to sleep in, I love getting my rest and feeling rested, but I hate going to bed. No matter what time it is, there is always something I could be doing. It's like I feel like I'm going to miss out on something. It's 1am? I'm sure there is something I can do to pass the time... other than sleep. Ya. It's that bad. So, this weekend, sleep... and lots of eating. It's Thanksgiving in Canada this weekend and since I'm a huge turkey fan, I cannot wait for that delicious meal. Gobble gobble.
My girl friend just got engaged! Guess who has been asked to be the (lucky) MOH? Yours truly. That's riiiight. Which means I'm going to have mega hands full as my sister has also asked me to be her MOH and the weddings are within a month of each other and happening next September and October. Wowee!
A couple weeks ago we went wedding dress shopping for her, for the first time evah and it was awesome. She's already narrowed it down to two. Or so we thought. We are now going to be checking out more bridal shops tonight!
I, of course, played photographer and ensured to get multiple pictures of her in every dress she tried on and while I can't show you those, I can show you the photo I snapped while waiting for her to emerge in the beautiful white dress. Oh hello there, it is I, your local Maid of Honour, just hangin' out in the dressing room waiting for the beautiful bride.
