Casual Fall Outfit for Weekends
We made it to the weekend, and I have a little outfit inspiration for that weekend too. December weekends are filled with two things – holiday events and ALL the errand running. From gift shopping to buying holiday decor like trees to hitting up the grocery store, December weekends are busy ones! I wanted to share a simple, casual fall outfit for weekends with long to-do lists.
As much as I love being all dressed up, I also LOVE comfy and cozy especially as the temps start to drop. Cozy and soft sweatshirts are a must have for weekend errand running. The slouchy sweatshirt is a favorite style of mine. You can pair it with a lace bralette and some jeans, and not only are you comfy but a little bit trendy too. A second way I wear mine is over my workout clothes to the gym. I usually hit up the grocery store afterwards, so I like the added layer to keep me warm.
Over the shopping holiday, I ordered the black version of my bralette. I wear this ivory one ALL the time. It’s perfect for loungewear around the house or to dress up a casual outfit a bit. One thing, this particular one does not have a lot of support. I would compare the fit to a yoga sports bra.
I hope ya’ll have a good weekend. I have plans to do a little Christmas decorating and a good sweat session at the gym. A pretty low key weekend over here before the all the parties and events start up. I should probably do a bit more Christmas gift shopping too. I feel a bit behind on that right now. By the way, if you need some gift inspiration, you can check out my holiday page for gift ideas for him and her.

Little Black Holiday Dress + Link Up
Hello friends! So did you take advantage of all the amazing sales yesterday?? My favorite purchase from yesterday was my new fitbit. I have been wanting to upgrade to one that shows my step count, and the Heart Rate version was $50 off yesterday! I can’t wait to start using it. I’ll share a review with ya’ll in a month or two, once I have had a chance to test it out.
Now that Thanksgiving and Black Friday are in the books, it is time to start thinking about Christmas and New Year’s Eve Parties. You can never go wrong with a great little black holiday dress this time of year.
I originally purchased this dress to wear for a Vegas Bachelorette Party in October. When shopping for the perfect little black dress for the party, I wanted to be sure my choice could double as a party dress for any upcoming holiday parties or a NYE party. This dress would also work for a wedding in Fall or Winter. With all that versatility, I knew this was the one.
The shimmer sheer sleeve and sexy shoulder cutout take center stage on this dress, so I kept my accessories minimal. I opted for my small black crossbody bag, the perfect size for party night. It holds a cell phone, keys, mini wallet, and lip gloss. For jewelry, I opted only for these fabulous statement earrings. I picked these earrings out specifically to wear with this dress. They are the perfect compliment to the dress. The silver, gold, and black colors blend with the look, but the design still has just enough wow factor.

Striped Cardigan + BLACK FRIDAY Sales!
Happy Black Friday!! I have a little something for everyone in today’s post- a little cozy, comfy outfit inspiration and a good list of Black Friday Sales. Did everyone have a fun Thanksgiving?? I’m pretty sure I’m still in a food coma from all the yummy deliciousness I ate yesterday. I see a good run in my future today!
Before we get to all the amazing Black Friday sales happening today, let’s talk about this cozy winter outfit. This striped cardigan is a little bit on the chunky knit side and perfect for cold days. I like it because I thought it would be perfect to toss over a simple work dress like the one featured earlier this week.
One color I immediately pictured with this cardigan was blush pink. I love the way the color blends with the beige colorblocking on the sleeves. Just enough to be different, but pale enough to blend. By the way this top is 50% off today and would also be cute tucked into a pencil skirt for work.
Also since I raved about this bag in my last post, I have to let you know that it’s currently 30% off. You do have to spend $250 and the bag is currently only $209. You can always search the sale section to find something to get you to the $250. On the first day of the sale, I ordered these gorgeous and highly recommended for comfort gray flats and added this tank to meet the $250. After the discount was applied, my total was still less than the original price of the flats, and I can always use more workout tanks so it worked for me.
Alright guys, now let’s talk Black Friday Sales – scroll on down for this year’s list!

I have rounded up a pretty decent sized list of the best Black Friday Sales for fashion and beauty. If you are shopping for yourself, I think this is such a great time to stock up on those high dollar designer pieces or just normally higher priced items.
I just picked up this trench coat originally $349, now $149! My other big ticket purchase was a new camera for the blog. I wanted a smaller one and this one came highly recommended from my blogger pals. I found it $100 off Wednesday. That may have been a Wednesday only deal, but I’m still looking around in case I find it cheaper. I’ll let ya’ll know.
I hope you all have fun shopping away today getting goodies for you and your family/friends too. Check back Monday because I plan to share a list of the must shop Cyber Monday Sales also. Happy Shopping Friday friends!
