The first week of December has come and gone. Pretty soon it will be Christmas. Woohoo! But I don't want it to come too fast. I need to enjoy the Christmas music and movies for a long time. I took a night off from Christmas movies last night to watch The Sound of Music Live with Carrie Underwood.  It was so fun, did you watch?  The Sound of Music is one of my favorite movies so I enjoyed seeing it done this way. Carrie did a great job.

Moving on, here are my outfits from this week! We had some nice, warm-ish weather so on Wednesday I didn't even need my coat (I did put on my big French Connection vest though.)
Monday: Sweater: Phillip Lim x Target, Jeans: Current/Elliott (RueLaLa), Flats: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Shopbop), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's

Less than a week until Thanksgiving! But there are 2 other things to be excited about for next week. Number 1 - a short work week! YAY! Number 2, my favorite, getting our Christmas Tree on Friday!  But let's not get ahead of ourselves.  First: the weekend! This weekend I'll be having date night with Christine and Lydia thanks to Marshalls Project Fab! Then Sunday I will relax and hang out with the family at Grandma's.

This week I FINALLY got to debut my crazy velvet Balenciaga pants I got for $30 (I know!) at Roundabout Resale in Westport.  I always find the best pieces there.  Case in point: my Lanvin heels from Thursday. Always get so many compliments on them and I paid a measly $80. Okay...that is technically a lot, but not compared to the $900 price tag. My outfits this week are also full of Marshalls and TJ Maxx finds.  As you can see I never pay full price for fabulous!

Monday: Dress: London Times (from Lydia), Sweater: Forever 21, Boots: Eighteen68 'Megan' (Gilt),  Belt: Kenneth Cole Reaction (Marshalls), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's

Tuesday: Sweater: Burberry Brit (Net-a-Porter sale), Tee: Cullen (Rue La La), Pants: Balenciaga (Roundabout Resale) Heels: Dolce & Gabanna (Uptown Consignment), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage & Mom's

Happy Friday! It has gotten quite chilly over the past week, we even had some snow on Tuesday morning.  Pretty soon I'm going to have to start wearing my real coat.  As you can see I repeated my outfit from Saturday, but no one at work had seen it so I figured why not! I also stayed true to my word (from yesterday) and wore a couple skirts this week!

I'm looking forward to this weekend. Tonight I'm headed to my aunts for a massage and sleepover in exchange for helping her with her website.  Then I'll probably head to Marshalls at some point to shop for my next Project Fab posts! Super excited for these upcoming ones!

I hope everyone had a lovely week. Mine was quite busy and today will be busy as well. But at least I get to work from the comfort of my couch today. In the world of clothes - I have still successfully avoided wearing an actual winter coat, it's still warm enough when I leave work to not need one. Although I did wear my new rain coat from Marshalls this week (once, haha.) I did layer sweaters on top of each outfit though, I'm not trying to get sick! I also wore a couple new-to-me pieces that I snagged while helping Lydia clean her closet. Both are purple, obviously, ha ha.  I was also a bad girl and wore leggings as pants, but my sweater was long enough to cover my rear, so I think it's okay.  I wasn't feeling good that day and didn't want to wear real clothes.

How is it already November 1st?! This is insanity!! I hope everyone had a great Halloween. I just went to my parents house after work, had dinner, watched Wheel of Fortune and It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown and then went home home to watch TV until bed. So exciting, right?!

I'm so glad it's sweater season again, I do love wearing all my knits! Speaking of them, I just snagged an awesome new sweater from Madewell for $35 (regular $88!) Unfortunately the color I bought (Navy and Purple) sold out, but there are 2 other color options. They're having a sale that goes through tonight - just enter code SWEETSALE for 40% off sale items and free shipping! :)

It's getting a lot chillier out there! In the mornings I almost need a coat, but by the time I leave work it is a reasonable temperature.  We moved offices this week where I work, which was an adventure. I love the new space, it's a lot larger and we're grouped into smaller rooms (which I like because I'm shy and it's actually helping me talk and get involved a little more.)  However, I don't like the new commute, it's only 5 minutes longer but it seems so much longer because I have to go across more avenues, which are longer.  Oh well, what can you do?

This is what my Thursday outfit looked originally, but then I decided to wear my Burberry sweater instead of a coat, so I had to change my boots too, ha ha.
Happy Friday!  This was a busy week for me! Monday there was no work so I hung out at home and went out to lunch with my sister. Then Tuesday night I had dinner with an old co-worker. Finally on Wednesday I met up with the Founder of StyleSaint (don't worry I'll share with you next week!)  That is a lot of activity for me, so this weekend I am looking forward to some relaxation!

No, it's not Friday yet, but I'm doing This Week in Fashion a day early this week. You'll see why tomorrow (or some of you may already know.) It was back to the office for me after a week and a half working at home. While I enjoyed being back, I did miss my sleep, I had gotten used to getting up hours late last week. Depressing.

Last night I went to a fun event hosted by Marshalls in NYC, I'll post more about it next week. Today I'm going out to lunch with some old friends, should be a nice change to get out of the office during lunch. I usually just eat my sandwich at my desk because I'm too cheap to buy lunch every day.

This was my position all week.  I was still stuck at home because of train issues so, from 9-5:30, I worked from my couch.  Usually when I work from home I stay in my pjs all day, but this week I decided to try and get dressed for a couple of days.  I still kept it super comfortable in a sweater and jeans though.

Sweater: Phillip Lim x Target, Jeans: Free People


And of course this one always tries to distract me...
It's getting chilly out there! I hope everyone had a lovely first week of Fall. I enjoyed being able to wear only a sweater with no coat, for now. We better enjoy this in between weather while we can.  This was an interesting week. On Wednesday I was stuck working at home because train service to Grand Central was suspended due to a power failure.  It couldn't have happened on a better day, though. It was my sister's birthday so I was able to have dinner with my family to celebrate. The day before that my twin cousins celebrated their 18th birthday, that makes me feel so old (I'm 7 years older than them!) And pretty soon I'll be a quarter of a century old...time flies. Lots of birthday talk today, ha ha.

Unfortunately trains are going to be crazy for up to three weeks because of the power outage.  So I won't be able to go into the office until it's fixed.  I did not go in yesterday but you'll notice there is an outfit there. That's because that is what I planned on wearing on Wednesday (I got dressed Wednesday, drove to the train station and drove home) and then was going to wear yesterday so I figured I'd leave it since I had the photo. ;)\

The weather is slowly taking a turn to Fall.  This week was rather chilly for the most part. People were wearing gloves which I thought was a bit extreme, I was still fine walking in my sweater - still no need for Winter coats yet, people!  But I'm excited for the arrival of fall - tights, hot chocolate and sweaters, yay!

Happy Friday the 13th! I know most people think it's bad luck but I enjoy when the 13th falls on a Friday. What a week it's been!  I was a lot more, for lack of a better word, active than usual.  Tuesday was the Lucky event and I got home super late so Wednesday was torture (so tired!) Compound that with the fact that I was also in NYC all day Sunday and I was wiped out! Imagine what would have happened if I went to more fashion week events...how do those girls do it!  I also made sure to watch my new Star Trek Into Darkness BluRay on Wednesday with my cousins.  Oh how I love that movie.

Also, you may have noticed that I've been wearing my Seychelle's sandals quite a bit recently. Too put it simply: 1. They are my most comfortable walking shoes and 2. I've been too lazy to bring shoes to change into.
