I almost forgot to do an outfit post for what I wore on our Woodstock weekend in October! I just had to wear my new Mickey pumpkin cardigan for the occasion. I love that it is kind of subtle. Someone in a store asked me "Is that actually Mickey or just accidental placement" and I replied "It's Mickey! *laugh*" and he responded "That's amazing!" 

It was so hard waiting to wear this after I got it in August, but so worth the buy! As mentioned in my wardrobe update that month, I actually bought the children's version of the sweater because I liked the silhouette better than the adult version AND I wanted to save $10 if it would fit, ha ha.  In case you missed that post, here's the story again: I ordered 3 different sizes because I wanted to see if I could fit in a kid's size and got an adult as backup. I tried a Kid's XL Plus, Kid's 2XL and Adult PS. The 2XL ended up being the best fit, but they were all very close in size. I prefer the kids sleeves and the fact that the center pumpkin is not cut in half like on the adult size. When I ordered I had a $20 off of $50 purchase so I also grabbed some tees and a tank to save me $60 on the purchase. Then I returned the 2 other sweaters and ended up spending $38.11 on 4 items when just the cardigan would have been $39.99 ($49.99 if I got the adult size.) Now that's shopping smart!

Anyway, back to the outfit! We had a perfect weather weekend so I was super comfortable and not too hot or cold in the sweater. I knew we would be doing a lot of walking so I wore my comfortable Franco Sarto loafers that are stylish yet surprisingly comfortable.

I did a quick outfit change for dinner into a cozy purple sweater, corduroy skirt I have had for YEARS and one of my favorite pairs of fall boots that I've had since 2008-ish! I had to have them fixed last year because the heel caps both fell off and now they're good for another 15 years.

The next day we had our King Arthur baking class so I wanted to have a layer I could take off for the class and something comfortable to bake in. I opted for a sweater tank with a cardigan on top. Funnily enough, this brown cardigan is a similar silhouette to my Mickey pumpkin cardigan. Guess I have a type! I also wore sneakers, even though they don't go with the look because I didn't want to get nice shoes covered with flour. Ha ha.

We had a couple different Thanksgiving celebrations this year, as we do most years. First was at my Mom's with just my siblings; this year we also had my sister-in-law's brother and girlfriend over. Since there would be dogs and lots of food at this gathering I went with a comfortable outfit of jeans and a sweater. 

I've been wanting to break out these old Free People flares for a while but I need to wear them with tall shoes so it had to be for a special occasion. They are so fun and always make me feel very tall! I think the last time they made it on the blog was 2019, yikes! Their first appearance was September 2011, so they're 14 years old! I was able to find a couple on eBay and linked them below if you want a pair!

Funnily enough, the major pieces are all from Marshalls throughout the years. Funny when that happens!

I added a new basic to the closet this month - a cozy brown cardigan I found at Marshalls. I've been keeping my eye out for a great brown sweater or cardigan for a while now and just happened to flip past this on the rack at Marshalls. It was the only one and was exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't find it online, but it is very similar to this sweater, also on their website and this wool & cashmere option.

Earlier this month, Nood sent me a couple of their products to try out. This is not something I usually talk about on the blog, but as someone who hates to wear bras I love when I can avoid that. I had been using another brand of non-adhesive nipple covers previously, so I was curious to see how Nood's covers differed. I received both their non-adhesive and adhesive covers.  The smaller size made them stay on easier and just like my other brand, they were invisible under my clothes! I wear the non-adhesive ones under tighter shirts and use the grippy with looser shirts. I'm interested to see how wearing them for a longer period of time goes, I've only had them a couple weeks at this point but I am very happy with them. The adhesive ones take a bit more maintenance, but it's worth it!
