You can't fool me, I know what you're doing today. You're lounging in bed in your favorite, cozy pajamas drinking coffee/tea with an iPad (or a laptop) between your paws while stalking the Cyber Monday sales. Am I right? I really painted a picture there, didn't I? :)

Give me a warm vest and I'll be officially set for cold weather. Add on a cozy blanket scarf and I'll be strutting around coat free in mid-January. Am I crazy? Probably, but some of the best people are–or so I like to tell myself.

So last Friday morning we learned that there had been an "incident" in our office park and that our building was on lockdown. My first thought was, "If I don't get to take outfit pictures today, I'm going to be FURIOUS!" Criminals. They ruin everything.

I totally wanted to pat myself on the back this morning for this outfit composition after my recent fashion slump. #slowclap I finally feel like I'm getting back on track and my inspiration is back! Now to explain what this title means because I am by no means a senator's daughter...

It's hard to believe that in just over a week we'll be gathered around the table with our families celebrating the first of the holiday season. With that said, now is the time to start thinking about what little gifty-gift to take to your fabulous holiday hostess - the clock is a tickin' my friend! While there are all kinds of pretty fall gifts available, we are firm believers that the Christmas season begins immediately following Turkey Day. Like serously, it's time to deck those halls before the pie is even served. Therefore, these sparkly, winter-inspired gifts will bring more use with both Christmas and New Years just around the corner!

Between selling our house, moving into a rental and trying to get plans squared away to build (maybe), I've been way more stressed that what I'm used to. Life is finally getting back to normal and to celebrate a return to the relaxation, my husband and I decided to head to a local-fave, Anderson Orchard. I can't even begin to say how long it's been since I've been to an orchard, but I was super excited to enjoy a stress-free, sunny fall day.

Some days we strategically plan out outfits and shoot locations, and other days we have a cute outfit on and scramble to find a location that works. Today was definitely the latter of the two options as we were driving to lunch and took photos near our favorite hibachi restaurant, which happened to be beside a liquor store. So conveniently we had some interesting people watching opportunities while trying to snap some quick shots before lunch. #noshame

So this was my first time wearing leather leggings this year and I somehow forgot about all the crazy looks I get when wearing these to the office. Apparently only the stylishly gifted can appreciate a good leather pant. Wah-wah...

It's officially November, which means I'm counting down to the holidays–my favorite time of the year! This is honestly the first really "fall" outfit I've worn so far this year. It's always tough dressing for 40-ish degrees in the morning, only to end your day with temps in the 70's. I've pretty much been living in t-shirts, open flowing cardigans and light jackets, but decided today was the day to break out a sweater and pretend like I enjoy the cooling temps.

Can you believe it's November already?! I for one, am super excited that Halloween is over because that means that the holidays are right around the corner! I'm beginning to think about things like what to wear on Thanksgiving and where to find a holiday dress for my company Christmas party. Squeeeee!
