Yesterday I shared my outfit from the Christmas Tree Farm, so today I'm sharing some pictures of the farm itself. For those of you in Connecticut, it's Jones Family Farms. This year there was a perfect blanket of snow covering the farm, great for getting us into the holiday spirit!
The Friday after Thanksgiving, as is tradition, we went to get our family Christmas Tree! For as long as I can remember, my family has headed over to Jones Tree Farm to pick out our perfect tree! This year we had perfect weather, it wasn't too cold and it got windy just as we were leaving, talk about perfect timing. The sun was shining the whole time, so unfortunately the colors in most of my photos are a bit off.
I took this opportunity to wear one of my new "holiday" sweaters. While the animals on this sweater are indeed llamas, I still think it is holiday appropriate, especially with the jewels. With this new piece I wore some old stand-bys. My American Eagle coat that I've had since before college and old boots my Grandmother bought at least 25 years ago.
Sweater: J Crew (Factory), Jeans: Free People (eBay), Jacket: American Eagle, Boots: from Grandma, Sunglasses: Ray Ban 'Emma' (Marshalls)

Here's an outfit from the weekend before Thanksgiving. I wore this outfit on Friday and Saturday, just with a different shirt and shoes! What can I say, this sweater is comfy! Plus I was sleeping over my aunt's house and didn't want to bring two full outfits.
(and no, my hair is not greasy, it's just wet from showering. I never blow-dry my hair so occasionally I have to take my pictures with wet hair)

Joules gifted the items featured in this post, but all opinions are my own.
Would you believe me if I told you I never owned a quilted jacket until now? I just never got around to buying one, so when Joules asked me what products from their site I wanted to test drive, this quilted hooded jacket was at the top of the list! I also picked out a really cute pair of wellies for days when I want a bit more whimsy in my rain gear.
Winter is on the horizon (okay, we still have a couple weeks to go, but the weather is certainly veering in that direction) and Joules has an amazing selection of jackets, dresses, rain boots and faux fur pieces, perfect for your Winter wardrobe. Their children's clothing is also making me wish I had kids to dress: SO adorable! Just look at how cute this little boy's fox sweater is.
See how I styled both my new pieces below!
Look #1: Womens Quilted Hooded Jacket in Burgundy c/o Joules, Top: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Saks Off 5th), Jeans: Free People, Boots: Zigi Soho (DSW)
Look #2: Womens Print Rain Boot Wellies in Purple Painty Pheasant c/o Joules, Sweater: Madewell (Shopbop), Jeans: Genetic Denim c/o Piperlime & Lucky, Necklace: House of Harlow c/o South Moon Under
Here is my second Thanksgiving outfit featuring my leather pants! I wore this for my Thanksgiving #2! This Marc Jacobs top I bought at the outlets was a perfect match for the pants so, of course, I had to switch up my original outfit! I had previously planned to wear my crazy printed Balenciaga pants with my black Witchery sweater, so that outfit will have to wait it's turn! I realized way too late that I probably got a size too big in the sweater, oh well, at least I like things loose fitting!
