Navy Blouse and Scalloped Skirt

Hello loves! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday weekend! I took Friday off of work and had a fun 4 days in Georgia with some family friends. It felt like a mini vacation and I had a blast. While in Georgia I did some quintessential “American” things such as shooting guns, playing with horses, and watching football – WAY too much football!

I love southern Thanksgiving because the sides are so delicious. I was telling my friends that the difference between New England Thanksgiving and Southern Thanksgiving is the fact that in NE the turkey isn’t fried, the ratio of the broccoli casserole is more in favor to the broccoli than cheese, the green beans don’t have bacon, and the squash isn’t sweet potatoes and doesn’t have marshmallows or brown sugar encrusted on top. It may be healthier up north, but man, I think everyone needs to try a Southern Thanksgiving at least once in their life.

Speaking of Thanksgiving, I’m very thankful for Scott and his constant willingness to take my pictures for my blog. I think he really does an amazing job and together we can come up with something creative. Scott is getting deployed at the end of December so I am dealing with those emotions. For many reasons I am going to miss him, but the most vain one is that I won’t have my partner in crime to help me with my blog photos. I guess I will just have to beg my friends to take my pictures. I will be making a more formal deployment post in the coming weeks, but I just wanted to share that again with my readers because it’s slowly creeping around the corner. So be thankful for every second you get to spend with your loved ones! And maybe even give them a big hug after reading this 🙂

On to the outfit – I am wearing two pieces that I found at Nasty Gal. The navy bell-sleeve blouse is on sale for $40, and the scalloped skirt is also $40. My Sole Society booties are so perfect because they are so versatile. You can wear them with bear legs, skinny jeans, tights, longer pants, whatever you want and you will look amazing! Does anyone else ever go into a store and buy a look that the mannequin is wearing? When I saw this blouse styled with the skirt on NG, I had to have both. And boom, here they are recreated on me!
