Ensemble message: Happy Thanksgiving Eve to all my U.S. readers!  Because the office is closed for the holiday for the next two days, and today is a half day, we at the Day Job treated today as a Friday.  Jeans all around!  So I know that the whole safari was trendy like... last year or something, but I'm digging this look.  It's comfy and perfect to go from half a day at the office to an afternoon of errands and then dinner out.


So what's everyone's plans for Turkey Day??  The Husband and I are going to my family's house, but we are cooking and bringing all the side dishes!  So yes, despite the fact that I am the furthest thing from a chef, I am helping cook for my family (fair warning to those who read my blog... like my little brother who won't admit it but always makes fun of my most recent posts... haha! :)


Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Easy Camel & Grey



sweater: Express (gift) ~ wool pants: Banana Republic (somewhere in the ballpark of $60-$80... wool pants are always so pricey that most of the time I blindly hand over my credit card so I don't wuss out) ~ shoes: Nine West ($? ancient) ~ necklace: Macy's ($10) ~ cuff: gift

Ensemble message:  Another Monday, another struggle to get out of bed!  Last night I toyed with the idea of wearing a skirt, but then I realized that I had 4 hours of meetings.  In a row.  And since conference rooms are generally cold, pants and a sweater were the way to go.  


But I wanted to keep the look more modern, so I chose camel pants and a grey dolman sweater.  The trendy neutral combo this season!  I think the best part of this trend is that most people probably already have both grey and camel items in their closet!


I had a ton of fun taking the action shots, even though my fingers were numb from the cold by the end.  I would have taken some more, but then I noticed a creeper watching me.  I going to ignore him, except I was downwind of El Creepo and his cigarette, which I’m pretty sure was a “funny” cigarette!!!  Drugs + creepers = get the heck out of Dodge!  Photo shoot was over immediately… I hope he doesn’t become a regular in the morning :(


Oh by the way… my titles will no longer be lyrics from the songs in my head.  As an experiment of sorts, I will be using key words to see if my readership increases.  Hopefully that’s not too boring for ya :)
