For my second Thanksgiving outfit I went with a skirt and an outfit I have been planning since August. It was a little warmer on this day so I was able to wear my outfit exactly as planned!

V-Neck Sweater: Everlane 'The Cashmere V-Neck', Oriental Print Skirt: J.McLaughlin (Coco's $10 sale),  Silk Reflections Sunkissed Ultra Sheer Tight c/o Hanes Hosiery, Boots: 3.1 Phillip Lim 'Peggy' in patent leather and pony-hair (Barney's Warehouse)

As usual we had two separate Easter celebrations this year so we didn't have to worry about going two places at once on Sunday! I wore this on Saturday to celebrate with my Dad's side of the family.  The dress is not something I would normally buy but for some reason I was drawn to it and it actually looked good on me when I tried it on. Also helps that I only paid $10 for it!

Dress: Cynthia Steffe (Lord & Taylor, also here), Heels: Lanvin (Roundabout Resale), Tights c/o Hanes

It's the eve of Christmas Eve! YAYY!! This is basically the day before Christmas for my family because we start our Celebrations on Christmas Eve with my Dad's side of the family coming over to our house.  Today is a pretty awesome day though, we watch my favorite Christmas movie: SCROOGE. It is a musical version of A Christmas Carol starring Albert Finney and it is amazing! Plus, it has Alec Guinness (aka Obi Wan) in it too.

I love this Stella McCartney sweater so much, since it's a holiday sweater it will pretty much never go out of style (for me, at least). It was featured on the blog two years ago as a Dream Outfit for Christmas Tree hunting, but then I got it on sale at The Outnet at wore it the following year when we got our Christmas Tree.

Polar Bear Sweater: Stella McCartney (The Outnet), Boots: Eighteen68 'Megan' (Gilt), Tights c/o Hanes, Sunglasses c/o GlassesShop, Watch c/o Movado, Bracelets: c/o Gorjana, c/o Fibi & Clo and gift my brother's girlfriend got for me in India

The long Winter is finally over and we can start wearing skirts and dresses without freezing to death, but, what about our sun-deprived legs that haven't seen the light in months? Many women, myself included, feel self conscious during Spring and the beginning of Summer when our legs are less than tan. Now, thanks to Hanes you can slip the perfect shade of bronze on every morning to make your legs look tan. Who needs all those crazy lotions and dangerous tanning beds when you can just put on a pair of tights?

To help me transition my winter legs into summer, Hanes sent me a pair of their Sunkissed Ultra Sheer tights to style.  The tights come in five shades you can find the perfect match for your skin tone and, for just the right fit, the Sunkissed sheer comes in control top or a smoothing top.  I chose the medium bronze shade for my skin.  The slight shine and sheerness makes them look more like your skin, unlike traditional panty hose which can look fake. See the photo below for a comparison, can't even tell I have tights on, can you? 
I will definitely be wearing these in the coming weeks if the weather stays chilly like this, I had been worrying about what I would do for my cousin's wedding the first week of June, but now I know I'll be wearing these! My mom had been toying with the idea of getting a spray tan for her legs, but she went out and got a pair of Hanes for herself.

Silk Reflections Sunkissed Ultra Sheer Tight c/o Hanes Hosiery, Skirt: Alberto Makali (Village Vogue Boutique), Sweater: French Connection  c/o Marshalls, Shoes: Guess (Marshalls), Necklace c/o by boe,
Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage, Brilliant Imports & Mom's

P.S. The skirt above came with a vest, so I figured I'd show you the outfit with the vest, even though it looks crazy. Ha ha. Would be fun for a themed party though, so I'll hold on to it.
