Here I go again, breaking another cardinal fashion rule: “Black and blue do not mix.” Well, hey, guess what, sometimes they do. So, there. Real convincing, huh? But seriously, this kind of works, doesn’t it? The little pink sash helps in cutting from the monotony of the colors. And after all, rules were meant to be broken. I am a strong believer in that.
In other news, Thanksgiving is this week! Is it bad that I’m kind of excited for Thanksgiving to be over so I can be excited for Christmas and not hate myself for it? Yes? Oh, and the day after Thanksgiving is when Christmas decorating and non-stop Christmas music and wrapping of presents and Christmas lights on the house are all allowed to happen. So, you can’t really blame me too much.
And today I’m thankful for… socks. Because without them, I would have some freezing cold footsies like all the time.

Haha I love this post. I can’t wait for Thanksgiving! And to get all our decorations out. It is so exciting. I’m also trying to think of a way to convince my dad to put up some icicle lights on the house. It just isn’t Christmas without them. If he refuses I’m sure my bro in law will take pity on us and do it. Thank goodness for adding a brother to the family haha
If I don’t speak to you again before then, I hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving!
Katie Did What
I knowww, Christmas time is the best time, and I am especially excited for all of the pretty twinkle lights!! Oooh good luck with convincing your dad about the icicle lights- and I’m glad you have a plan B just in case. Brothers really are the best!
