CUTE, AFFORDABLE OUTFITS AND WALMART EARLY BLACK FRIDAY DEALS!

You all seemed to love the picks I shared for Walmart Deal Days last month, let's do it again!  Early Black Friday Deals just kicked off, and there are some winners for sure!  I also have some new cute, affordale outfit pieces from Walmart Fashion that I've wanted to share with you, so I'll throw those in as well. Some of those pieces aren't included in the sale, but even at regular price Walmart prices are hard to beat for the quality and style. So let's get to it!  These wide leg jeans  are my new go-to favorites. So many reasons... the price is unbelievable, they feel incredible, and the back section of the waist is elastic so no gapping and they fit like a glove. TTS, I'm wearing the M. The length was great for me but you know I prefer a cropped ankle with wide leg pants, so I cut and frayed the hem.  Availability is spotty online but I'm hoping they'll get everything restocked soon because I've seen plenty in store. And, let's talk about T......

THIS YEAR'S THANKSGIVING TABLE PLANS AND INSPIRATION FROM YEARS PAST

I'll be sharing my Thanksgiving table with you next week, but today I thought I'd give you a little preview and show you the plan I have to put it together in case you're looking for a few ideas to use on your table too.  I also went back through the archives and picked out my top five Thanksgiving tables from years past if you are looking for a variety of table inspiration today!  Here's the direction I'm planning to go this year, this is just a starting point so I'll add in and switch around some things as I'm actually putting it together I'm sure.  As I mentioned in my Fall home tour , I've been loving the blush pink + brown combo for Fall this year, so when I bought this pink block print tablecloth earlier this year I knew right away I wanted to mix with with browns to use for my Thanksgiving table.    Similar Vase || Pheasant Feathers || Faux Pink Flowers (I hoped to use more Gomphrena that you saw in my home tour but a recent freeze might h......

2025 FALL HOME TOUR || FRONT PORCH

I literally just set up my Fall porch for this year yesterday, so I'm calling it my Thanksgiving Porch!  I was tempted to not even decorate it for Fall this year, but I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year so I wanted it to look seasonal.   I've had in mind for a while that I wanted to put some branches in my urns this year and go from there.  My ferns are usually still going strong this time of year so they stayed put and I just added in around them. I loosely stuck with the blush and brown colors that I used inside this year, but added some orange in as well since I bought a bunch of real pumpkins to line the flowerbeds across the front of the house.  I've had these grapevine pumpkins forever so I nestled them in along with a faux pumpkin sprayed this blush color , a few faux orange pumpkins, and some sugar pine cones.  I wired what I could to the branches (that are shoved down in the dirt).  I'm hoping that everything stays put- ha! Today is nice and w......

FIVE FRIDAY FAVORITES

Happy Weekend! I'm excited to share this week's Five Friday Favorites with you, even though it's well past Friday! A cute new sweater, some new affordable jewelry pieces, a clever problem solver, and my first new holiday item for this season!  I bought this leopard sweater recently and love it!  It's a very soft fine gauge sweater knit that's a substantial weight but not too heavy.  It has a cute hood and I like how the zipper ends several inches above the hem of the sweater so it doesn't restrict movement at all.  I sized up to a Large for a sweater jacket/coatigan type fit.  Sweater ||  Jeans (I cut the hem) || Walking Loafers || Sunglasse s || Phone Case  with These Initials I have no interest in a smart watch but do wear a regular watch every day, usually one of my dressier gold watches.  I've been wanting a sportier style, though, for more active days or just when I'm working around the house.  You can't go wrong with a good old Casio, ......

2025 FALL HOME TOUR || ENTRY, DINING ROOM, AND LIVING ROOM

Last week I shared my colorful Fall Patio with you, today why don't you come on inside for a tour? I'll show you around the Entry, Dining Room, and Living Room where I concentrated my Fall decorations.  This year rather than using bold Fall colors as I've usually done in the past, I wanted something just a bit calmer but still different than traditional Fall colors.  I've had a blush pink and tan/brown color combo rolling around in my head that I've wanted to experiment with, so that's what I went with!    I also just wanted an overall warm and cozy feel, but you know I still have to layer in the colors and patterns even if I was trying to "tone it down" a bit.  I still want it to be intersting, fun, and whimsical!  I only did one little craft as I set out my decorations this year- I bought these velvet mushrooms last year at Hobby Lobby (not sure if they had them again this year or not) and they are so good but I was struggling with how to use them.  ......
