Happy Friday everyone & happy Thanksgiving weekend to my Canadian girls! This weekend we are hosting Thanksgiving for everyone for the first time. Last year we kind of hosted, but we missed the real Thanksgiving because we were in Barbados.
This year, 11 people and the whole shebang--should be interesting. I love to host, but it always makes me a little crazy before the guests arrive. Marco is amazing though, and always takes the role of head chef while I frantically run around stressed out trying to hold it together. Ha! Hope you have a great weekend!
This is a Thanksgiving staple in our family.
I love these fringe iPhone cases.

O U T F I T D E E T S : FLOPPY HAT (LAST SEEN) | OPEN-BACK TOP | H&M FLARES (SIMILAR) | SCARF | IRO HEELS | BAG
Floppy hats are huge for Fall and I've added two to my wardrobe thus far, a burnt orange one and this basic black--and next on the wish list: this grey stunner (inexpensive option that I love).
I'm pairing mine with everything from this look, to boyfriend jeans and skinnies but it would also be so pretty with a long sleeved dress and tall boots or a chunky, sweater dress (pair a long sleeved top underneath or a leather jacket on top for warmth).
O U T F I T D E E T S : TOP (ALSO PURCHASED IT IN GREY) | URBAN PLANET SKINNIES (SIMILAR) | OVER THE KNEE BOOTS | H&M BAG (SIMILAR) | ADLO SUNGLASSES (SIMILAR) | NECKLACE
Keeping with yesterday's theme, these are another item in my top five 'to wear' items: tan suede over-the-knee boots.
These ones are real suede and have a chunky heel, which makes them easy to walk in. As soon as I put them on, it was a yes because again, they are so comfortable. It's pretty rare I will wear uncomfortable shoes nowadays. I used to put up with the pain before, but perhaps that's just the older and wiser me who refuses to do it anymore. Not saying I'm going to be running errands for hours on end in these, but safe to say they could definitely go the distance.
I'm naturally drawn to black and nude for footwear and although these boots come in black, I opted for the tan colour because it's so on trend for Fall. I will be pairing these with distressed and dark denim, leggings & skirts or dresses (likely in neutral colours because you know me). I've linked some pretty suede boots below if you're up for some shopping.
O U T F I T D E E T S : ZARA SWEATER (SIMILAR, SIMILAR) | ZARA PANTS (LOVE THESE) | PEEP-TOE BOOTIES | TASSEL NECKLACE | H&M FRINGE BAG (SIMILAR) | SUNGLASSES ON SALE!
Peep-toe booties are in my top 5 'to-wear' items for Fall. It's the perfect season for them and the last chance to show of the toes before the snow flies (well, at least in my neck of the woods). These ones are adorable with the little tassels at the back and the chunky heel makes them sturdy and so comfy!
I'm still loving coated or waxed pants for Fall, they essentially elevate your basic pants to a new level and with stitching or moto details, it really adds interest to the look.
On Friday night we took it easy and stayed in. We did pop downstairs to the party room as there was a goodbye party for our Super and we wanted to wish him well.
Marco brought us home some Viet take-out (heaven in a bowl!) and I spent the evening editing my on-set PDO photoshoot vlog.
