We took these photos on one of the unseasonably warm days a few weeks ago. Now, I would be quite cold in shorts. But, if you live somewhere with more mild temperatures, give this look a try. If not, it would also work with faux leather pants, or if you add a pair of tights and booties. Regardless, I love the contrast of faux leather shorts with something more casual. I’m also obsessed with these retro New Balance 327s. I may have just bought my third pair…oops! They’re super comfortable, and come in so many versatile colorways. Highly recommend.
We are heading to Long Island tomorrow to spend Thanksgiving at my mom’s. My in-laws, brother-in-law, and Rob’s cousin will join us on Thursday too. I love this holiday, and I’m excited to be with family. I’ve always been a major proponent of gratitude, and I actually had a guest post series on my first (pre-fashion) blog called “The Appreciation Revolution.” Even during the most challenging moments, I try to bring myself back to gratitude. This year, I am especially grateful for family, close friends, and good health. There’s a lot going on in the world that scares me and makes me sad, but there is still a lot of love, generosity, and kindness. Thank YOU for supporting my little corner of the internet! I will probably share some sale finds on Instagram, but no other new blog posts this week. Happy Thanksgiving!
PS Happy 9th Birthday to my fur baby, Bones!
