Happy day of thanks ladies & gents! Today is a day we celebrate family, good food, memories and give thanks for all the wonderful and fabulous things in our lives. Remember how lucky we are and remind ourselves never to take life for granted. You can give thanks for all things big and small, silly or thoughtful. 

This year has been quite the whirlwind for me. Changing jobs, turning half a century, growing my blog, and deciding to be more open to all kinds of new things. 

Here are a few things I'm thankful for this year: 

1. My family. Cliche I know, but it's true. 

2. My blog. My followers, new and old. The blogger friends I've made. I only hope I can continue to grow each and every day. 

3. Sweet tea. 

4. A sunny day. 

5. Finally not being afraid to say what I feel, and not be embarrassed to know what I want out of life. 

6. Leopard print everything. This needs no explanation.

7. People who make me smile. 

In other news, I've got super exciting Black Friday news!! Pink Blush, where I got this adorable floral number from today, and the leopard sweatshirt from yesterday (here), has gone LIVE with their deals!

Hope y'all have a safe and yummy turkey day!!

We have had quite the dreary few days heading up to Thanksgiving. And while I am beyond happy for the rain when I'm sleeping.....it makes for a bit of a panic attack when needing to shoot for le blog. 

Thankfully we got a few hours break from the downpour to get out and about! But I just had to show y'all this ADORBS umbrella I just had to have when I was at work last week. The print makes for quite the statement. 

In other news, I have teamed up with a fabulous boutique online shopping destination, Pink Blush, to share some of my favorite things for the biggest shopping weekend of the year! This sweatshirt is beyond fab. Y'all should know by now, I love a good animal print. This is the ultimate chill out but still look chic moment. YES. 

Make sure to check the blog tomorrow for Pink Blush Black Friday info and my Instagram this Friday for a chance to get in on a Loop Giveaway with Pink Blush! Y'all aren't going to want to miss this!

Love's a fragile little flame, it could burn out

I am so excited that one of my blogger loves, Samantha from Playdates + Pearls, has asked me to be one of her contributors while she takes a blogging break to have a new precious little baby. If you haven't already seen her stylish gal Camryn, you are missing out! If I could have anyone's wardrobe, it would be this little tyke! 

My first post as fashion contributor for Playdates + Pearls goes live today, but I thought I would share some of the images here! Check the real post for more deets. 

rocks box review

It is no question that I am a jewelry fanatic. If y'all could see my bedroom, literally every flat surface has some kind of plate, jewelry box or even cake stand full of bracelets, rings, and earrings. I swear, one wall you have to fight to see through all the necklaces. It is borderline insane!

I also really love getting mail. Who doesn't feel kind of special when you get something hand delivered with your name on it, where it feels like Christmas every time it arrives. EEK! ROCKSBOX is the answer to any gals deepest accessory fantasy. It is a month subscription where you get three pieces of designer jewelry, hand picked by a super awesome stylist (shoutout to my girl Amanda!) that you can wear for as long as you want. Then you can either purchase, or send back and get three more amazing pieces! 

Like, how adorable is the personalized letter that comes with each box! It is a note from your stylist, as well as details about each piece in your box. With room to add notes for your girl once you send the pieces back! 

I got GORGEOUS pieces from Loren Hope, House of Harlow and Ashiana London. 

I am always on the hunt for great bangles, so this House of Harlow number was PERFECT! I can't wait to see what's in the next box! My fingers are crossed for some dainty Gorjana pieces.

The lovely gals at ROCKSBOX are anxious for y'all to get in on the fun! For a limited time, literally till November 16th, you can get your first month's box for FREE! Just click this link! http://curebit.com/x/dZjqTP

Get it!
