WHAT TO WEAR: FRIENDSGIVING

Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you are enjoy the day with loved ones, counting all your blessings and taking naps in between online shopping ;)  
 Last Saturday I hosted Friendsgiving and this is what I wore and how I set the table.
I love THIS COBALT BLUE DRESS (under $20 from Forever 21), but I don't necessarily recommend bodycon when you plan on stuffing your face, but I do however recommend keeping it cute ;)

HEY PUMPKIN

Hey Pumpkin! You know I love clothes, and you know I love blogging and you know I love food, but did you know I love to cook? I'm not big into desserts and baking (I'd rather eat chips and make some tilapia), BUT I love pumpkin anything. I've shared an easy, pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe with you below just in time for Thanksgiving! You can thank me later :) On to the fashion...

 I've never been one to shy away from white after Labor Day. In California, sunless days are few and far between, especially with this crazy drought we are having. So, why not wear white in Noevember when it's 65 & sunny. In fact, to me this look is very fall chic with the dark grey blouse and animal print pumps. What do you think—is this fall look #simplychic or simply wrong?

I've been dying for a crop top skirt set, and finally when summer is over, I get one...go figure. Initially I thought this would be more of a night time look, but I don't know about baring my belly and wearing heels at the same time. Not quite sure that's me, so instead I opted to do the crop top thing during the day with sneakers and a flannel. I like to think of it as down to earth sexy and/or California cool.

ORANGE IS THE NEW CHIC

Well, since it's November, we just celebrated Halloween, AND the Giants won the World Series, I think some orange linen pants are in order.

Orange is a tricky color to wear, but I think I found what works for me — stay away from black and go with grey and/or brown instead. Happy Monday!
