Shades of Gray Cardigan
Where are my cardigan lovers at?? I’m loving this gray cardigan for fall. It’s more of an open knit so it’s perfect for those days when you need a light layer. I love it for the cool morning/warmer afternoon days. Per my usual, I’ve been loving mixing grays, black and white this fall. It’s one of those combos that can look chic even when part of a super casual look like this one.
Also, if you are looking for a good layering tank, I LOVE these. I’ve worn them a few times on the blog. I own them in a few colors. I love that I can wear my regular bra with these, and that they are a thick material. The white is not at all see through. They are from Gap, so you can usually find them on sale every few weeks.
I hope you all have a great week ahead! I have another monochromatic style look coming for you later this week, and fun little beauty DIY, stay tuned!

I’m so excited for this weekend!! I am heading to the Thrive Blog Conference later this afternoon! The conference is just north of Houston, but I took the whole day off because Houston traffic can be brutal on Friday afternoons! I also kind of really wanted to have a little me morning. You know sleep in, enjoy a cup of coffee or two along with some dog cuddles before heading out to the conference. I do still have to finish packing and running a few errands, so I can’t relax for too long! The hotel is brand new and gave us a great conference rate for 2 bedroom suites. My two roomies and I will each have our own bed thanks to a pull out couch. I’m going to be sharing more about how the conference went and what I wore on the blog next week, but if you can’t wait you can follow along on snapchat (ladyinviolet) or Instagram! I promise to post a tour of my two bedroom suite and let you in on who my fabulous blogger roomies are over on snapchat!
Now on to the outfit! Colorful cardigans are high on the list of my favorite items for spring! I love tossing them on with sundresses or sleeveless tops. I own them in a few different colors, but this coral one is a spring and summer fave of mine. I love wearing it over some of my black dresses for work to add a fun pop of color. On a little more casual days, it is that perfect addition to a more neutral color palette. This one in particular is a few years old, but I linked a similar color from H&M. I love buying basics like tees and cardigans from them, because I find them to be good quality and a great price! Plus, their basics come in so many color options!!
Alright, I should probably start packing soon or at least making my packing list. If there is anything you would like me to share on snapchat or a future blog post about the conference, feel free to shoot me an email or leave me a comment! Thanks for stopping by the blog this week!

If you love long cardigans, I definitely recommend a cocoon cardigan. They kind of remind me of a blanket with sleeves which is why I love them. I picked this one up last year from Zara, but I linked a few similar ones that are on sale and have multiple color options. These cardigans are great for casual looks, but also work to throw on with a dress or a blouse and work pants. I wear this one ALOT in the winter months both out and about and around the house.
I also wanted to share about my new AG jeans. I have been wearing them for just over a month now, and I am in love! These jeans have the tiniest bit of stretch to make them comfy, but they don’t over stretch and turn baggy. I wear my jeans a couple times before washing, so I need them to hold their shape. The color was that perfect neutral jean shade that I was searching for to be able to really wear year round with a wide variety of colors. I have worn these with booties, riding boots, and heels. You have probably seen them all over my Instagram feed. I’m so excited to have found this brand on sale, so I could try them out. I will definitely be heading back to this brand for another pair.
I am so ready for this long weekend! I have some fun plans with friends that I cannot wait for and a relaxing Sunday Funday at home scheduled too! I hope ya’ll have a great weekend too! Thanks for stopping by!

I looked at my calender this weekend and realized Thanksgiving is only two and half weeks away!! I felt like my blogiversary snuck up on me, and now the holidays are doing the same thing!! I decided to kind of theme this week with cute Thanksgiving outfit ideas to get you all set for the holiday. For Thanksgiving, I tend to lean more towards some form of a casual look. All three looks this week are casual, but different kinds of casual. If I had to name today’s, it would be relaxed casual. Whenever I head to my Grandma’s house, I tend to lean towards a more relaxed casual look like this one. Two reasons, one Grandma puts us grandkids to work! We help her prepare the food, set the table, clean dishes, and other odds and ends. Second, we tend to be a kick off our shoes and lounge around type family, so I like my outfit to be super comfy. The base of this look is simple a comfy tee and jeans. I’m obsessed with these essential tees from Banana Republic. I also don’t think I’m the only one because my size is always sold out in store. They are thick, soft, and I think the v-neckline is the perfect v. The long cardigan and booties in this look are my add-ons to layer on after all the work is done. This cardigan is so warm and cozy! It’s really thick and soft, so perfect for lounging around in on Thanksgiving while watching football or playing games. For my relaxed casual look, I also keep my jewelry simple. I went with some of my more everyday jewelry and only one bracelet because you can’t wash dishes with long necklaces and an arm stack. 🙂 Check back Wednesday for a more dressy-casual look, and I have my Christmas gift guide for him hitting the blog tomorrow! Thanks for stopping by and have a fabulous week!
