Athleisure Travel Outfit + The Best Black Leggings & LINK UP
If you thought I was going super casual last week, you haven’t seen anything yet. Ha! I know this one is a bit different then my normal dressy casual style, but I wanted to share a super comfy travel outfit for you guys. For many, holidays mean a flight or road trip is in the books. If you don’t have big travel plans, this look would also be the perfect athleisure outfit for errand running or tree hunting.
I know I say I love lots of different pieces of my wardrobe, and I do love all of them. BUT these leggings are one of my favorite things in my closet! I own two pairs of them because I wear them so much during the winter. They are called Live In Leggings, and I do just that. I wear them as loungewear around the house, under tunic sweaters and tops outside of the house, and under skirts and dresses for those really cold days at work.
The best thing about these leggings, besides being super comfy, they are not see through! The material is super thick, so no worries of your panties peeking through. Despite the thicker material, these leggings are still so comfy and have a lightweight feel to them. When I was grabbing the link to share with ya’ll, I saw they have over 3,000 5-Star reviews, so I guess I’m not the only one obsessed with them.
For those of you curious on sizing, I’m a 27 in jeans, and I wear a small in these. They are a little long on my petite frame. I let the material bunch up around my ankle. You can see it in some of the pictures.
As for the rest of my athleisure travel outfit, this olive cocoon pullover is the perfect lightweight top for a Texas winter. I love the looser fit for traveling. If you are on a road trip or plane, it makes it easier to move around in your seat and makes me overall just more comfortable. Also, these sneakers are really comfy for walking. I wear these for my gym workouts and some errand running, so they have been tested and approved.
I hope ya’ll are having a great week so far! Don’t forget to keep scrolling to check out today’s Style File Link Up. Thanks for stopping by.

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.

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!

Asymmetrical Sweater & Link Up
Hello sweet friends! How was your weekend?? I launched my Holiday Gift Guide Series on Sunday, sharing a few gift ideas under $50. You can check it out here! I’m hoping to start posting an extra time each week, time permitting. So if you are bored on Sunday or want something to peruse, you can pop on over and see if I have anything going on. I have some fun post ideas in the works.
Okay, how perfect would this rust colored asymmetrical sweater be for Thanksgiving!! The color just screams fall and Thanksgiving. The asymmetrical design of the hem really caught my eye, because it was a little different than your average crew neck ribbed sweater. One feature I really like is the slits on the sleeves. I love my sleeves to be a bit on the longer side, and the slits help keep the sleeves out of your way when using your hands. I need to find more sweaters like this ASAP!
Don’t forget it’s Style File Link Up Day! Scroll on down to share your latest outfit post or to find more holiday outfit ideas! Thanks for stopping by ya’ll!
