KNEE HIGH BOOTS, THANKSGIVING MADNESS, & CRANBERRY SAUCE

So I stuffed my face with cranberry sauce.

Yes, I just can’t help myself.

Does cranberry sauce not go with EVERYTHING THOUGH?

Like cranberry sauce x stuffing…YES?

Cranberry sauce x turkey…YES?

Cranberry sauce x pasta…SO MUCH YES?

Cranberry sauce x sweet potatoes…YES YES YES?

I mean it even goes with corn bread?

We’re getting off track but really it does go with everything.

During this time of year, I just really love my cranberry sauce. I also love my knee-high boots.

Reason being: knee high heel boots are slimming after the major cranberry, cornbread, sweet potato moments.

Much needed !!

In other news: how was your Thanksgiving? Anything fun? We ended up going to my parent’s house AND of course Michael’s parent’s house. We did a lot of mingling, eating, & a little drinking.

SO on that note, I figured I’d show you guys what I wore in the days leading up to Thanksgiving: knee highs.

I know it’s cliché but I’m kind of obsessed.

There are a couple reasons why: 1.) you can roll them DOWN. 2.) they really flatter the leg and 3.) they’re hot AF. Every girl needs a pair. I mean I just really like how they lengthen the leg. Ideal after too much cranberry sauce.

I paired these boots from Nordstrom with Michael’s shirt. Nordstrom has a ton of amazing boots right now— our poor, poor bank accounts. And there’s nothing I love more than experimenting with the guy’s clothes. There’s something very sexy about men’s clothes, right? Lastly I added a severe middle part with super slick, straight hair & I was good to go.

I feel like this is one of those outfits that doesn’t even need makeup. CHIC, SLEEK, TO THE POINT.

Oh, & of course IT’S SHOPPING TIME !!! If you’re looking for some great gifts these are my top 7 picks. I will for SURE being treating myself to number 2 and 4 ( I NEED SMOKING SLIPPERS or I’ll die ):

1.) My actual favorite pair of sneakers

2.) NAVY velvet booties

3.) A lower version of my white pumps

4.) THE BEST pair of black heels

5.) Stan Smith white kicks

6.) Crimson smoking slippers

7.) Hottie silver New Year’s Eve pumps

  1. Girl, I feel you!!! #DETOX day! Also, I’ve been so behind on all my fave bloggers (LIFE!) and I just spent the last hour getting caught up on TSC. CONGRATULATIONS on the nuptials lady, and I am LOVING all of your wedding outfit inspo!! I need a dress for the night of our wedding (we’re eloping on a mountain in NZ) and you’ve given me so many great ideas. It’s been excellent catching up, and I hope you had an amazing TG!! xoxox

    1. Aw you’re so sweet Jill! Thank you SO much. Congratulations on your wedding. So many more looks and ideas to come : ) xx

  2. Ugh, oh my god I have been looking for a pair of black knee high boots that aren’t too much ( ya know??) ALL SEASON. Thank you so much for sharing these! Ordered them as soon as I saw them.

  5. Cranberry sauce is my life during the holidays. We have a family recipe for our own with orange, apple and cranberries (duh!). My mom makes it for the table and then puts some of it in muffins. 🙂

    Happy Thanksgiving to you, Lauryn!

    1. YUM! That sounds SO good. I’ll have to give it a try especially on some muffins. Thanks for sharing it Breanne! xx

  6. Okay. Phew! I thought I was the only person who DEVOURED cranberry sauce (homemade, of course!) I kept seeing on Thanksgiving day that people thought it was a waste and I’m over here like HUH?! They must be eating the shit out of the can haha
