Mustard and Military

It’s a big day around our house. The other baby bird will be flying home tonight. LOL We will all be excited to go to airport and pick Benny up. I’ve made a small dent in our Thanksgiving prep. Last week I made our favorite Sweet Potato Casserole and stuck it in the freezer. I no longer make a pumpkin pie because…#Costco. Their pumpkin pies are a delicious bargain. I do add a chocolate ganache to the top which ups the ante. Last night I made the brine for the turkey so I can get that soaking today.

Depending on the weather for Black Friday this outfit would be perfect for getting out and hunting down bargains. If it’s cooler you can always add a coat and leave the military vest at home. 

After encouragement from several of you (thanks Allie and Kellyann) I finally bought a military vest and I love it. 

I purchased this same sweater last year and it was one of my favorites so I was really happy to see it come back this year. The mustard didn’t really strike me at first but I’m loving it now that I’ve got it and trust me when I tell you that this sweater is so soft. It’s currently showing as sold out, but you know how that goes at Nordstrom. It may be in stock later today. Just keep checking. A good alternative might be this one or this one.

I added what’s probably the most popular infinity scarf ever. I love mixing patterns. If you are a little fearful of this I really can’t encourage you enough. Just step out and DO.IT. You won’t be sorry and once you start, you won’t be able to stop.

It’s always hot in those malls so you can choose to ditch the scarf and vest totally and still look perfectly put together. 

I had to put this picture in with the gorgeous colors of the leaves on this tree.  I love when the trees are turning all the shades of gold and orange. 

Happy Thanksgiving Eve friends.
