The Evil Black Friday Fairy









Dress- c/o Glamorous UK | Button up- c/o Sheinside | Shoes- Target | Seamless leggings- c/o Too Sexy Store | Leather cuff- c/o Cosmorones | Bracelet- gifted | Necklaces- c/o Best Personalized Jewelry, c/o Anjolee

So I had this whole post written up about how I was not going Black Friday shopping blah blah blah and it went something like this:

"I'm usually the first person online at the H+M at the mall on Black Friday. I'm that crazy lady who pushes people out of the way and whacks them with her super full shopping bags. I'm a store owner's nightmare because I'm a tornado and I try on EVERYTHING and buy like one thing. Once a year, I'm the evil Black Friday Fairy. But this year...I'm not. I won't spend all morning shopping. I won't get up at 1 AM to spend ten hours shopping."
 
And then I went on to say why:
 "Well, first of all, my closet is kind of brimming with clothes right now. I don't have much extra room than what's already in there! And also, last year, I had a bad experience of waiting in the checkout line for TWO hours at H+M and it was exhausting. Well, more exhausting for my mom who stood there for the full two hours at 4AM while I wandered around. But still."

And then I even made myself feel better about it by saying:
"Finally, lots of places are offering free shipping and the same deals online as they are in stores! Why browse the crazy sale racks and navigate all of those evil crazy people *ahem me* when I can sit in my PJs on the couch with some nice music playing and shop online?? So that's what I'll be doing this year"

But then....I didn't do that.
I didn't because online shopping is a joke when you can go and do the REAL thing and touch all of the clothes instead of stroking your screen and try on all of the shoes instead of hoping they run true to size and experience the thrill and push people out of the way and stuff. So, you guys, I'm going Black Friday shopping. 

THE EVIL BLACK FRIDAY FAIRY LIVES ON. 

I'm on my way out riiiight now. I'm later than most crowds. But last year, we left too early. I'll still get the deals, and I'll miss the crowds a bit now. But I won't miss the rush of it. The rush of adrenaline, that is. I've still got that and I can't wait!!! What's Black Friday without shopping, anyway? BLACK FRIDAY 2012 HERE I COME.

What are your plans for Black Friday? 

Oh right, and yesterday was Thanksgiving! Almost forgot :) My Thanksgiving was nice. I pigged out on potatoes and pie :) And I wore this comfy outfit. Don't worry, the dress is loose enough that it hid any sign of food baby!

Wear Abouts Weekend of Thanks (+ Giveaway!)


It's almost Thanksgiving! I'm ahead of the game and wanted to be the first to wish you all Happy Thanksgiving :) To thank you for being such great readers, I have a giveaway. And not just one....check back every day this weekend for FOUR giveaways!!! 


I'm calling it Wear Abouts Weekend of Thanks--because I'm so thankful for all of you and how much you've helped my little blog grow! I'm heading out to my Aunt Ellen's for Thanksgiving. It's my mom's side of the family and we always have loads of food! I can't wait. Thanksgiving dinner is my favorite meal of the year: my favorite three foods are potatoes, bread, and pie so I'm all set! Yep, I'm a healthy kinda gal...
I'll do an outfit post from Thanksgiving on Friday (with a giveaway of course). All I know is what jewelry I'll be wearing; my Rory necklace, my diamond necklace, and anything to jazz up my ears!

Anyway, the first giveaway is from .H.C.B. and up for grabs is a $30 certificate! My favorite item from their shop is this red peplum top--and it's under $30!

Complements








Dress- H&M | Sweater- J. Crew | Shoes- Blowfish | Bracelets- c/o Lobby, gifted | Name necklace- c/o Best Personalized Jewelry | Diamond necklace- c/o Anjolee

I told you guys that I wasn't taking these two necklaces off...and I wasn't lying!!! They really do complement each other nicely, don't they? I wore this outfit to my sports awards last week. We have to dress up and stand on stage as our coach talks about our season and our team and blah blah blah. It's actually not that bad, since we get to see every other team stand on stage awkwardly too. I changed into flats half way through the day since I didn't want to stand on stage 30 feet taller than the rest of my team :)

This outfit is fitting for Wear Abouts...it matches the color scheme PERFECTLY! Look at how well this look goes with my header!
