Collars and Berries

Collars & Berries
Forever 21 berry skirt




Leather Moto Jacket: F. Carierre  (Similar)
Sweater: Ann Taylor  (Similar)
Skirt: Forever 21 (Here)
Collar Necklace: Forever 21 (Here)
Shoes: Enzo Angiolini  (Similar)
Rings: Forever 21
Clutch: BCBG
Sunnies: Chloe  (Here)
Remember these?

An early reveal of what I'll be wearing for Thanksgiving this year!  A cranberry pencil skirt with a silver metallic sweater and the collar necklace I bought back in August!  And of course....I selected something from the shoe challenge...the Enzo silver metallic pumps!  I am ready for the week to get started!  This weekend I bought all of my supplies to bake my desserts, a pumpkin layered cheesecake and oatmeal raisin cookies.  I was going to make a third item but I have to get everything done on Tuesday night...two will have to do.  I am hoping that this skirt will keep me in check by not over-eating, but in the case that I do...the sweater will hide it all :)

  38. I have no clue what I'm going to be wear for Thanksgiving. I love your collar necklace.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I love the collar and colour of your skirt. To ensure a more streamlined look, I would recommend that the sleeve be shortened a little, or you could push the sleeves up a little to give it a ruched look.

  50. I'll be glad to eat your piece of the pumpkin cheesecake. I'm the kind of friend that will help you not overeat lol! I love the skirt and the color is so gorgeous! I love those shoes too and the moto jacket is always a classic!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Love the skirt, it's a great color, very festive. The two items you're making both sound great. Oatmeal is bad for gout, so I haven't had an oatmeal raisin cookie for almost a year.

    I hope my question regarding Thursday's main course wasn't upsetting. I shouldn't have asked if turkey was on the menu when I'm pretty sure it won't be.

  52. Well now I feel like an underachiever because I was only planning to bring one lousy cake to dinner..I love that leather jacket.

I am loving the bright skirt, it really sets you apart even while you are wearing an all black outfit/accessories. Love the layering with a gray sweater and the very interesting collar.
