What I Wore: Thanksgiving Dinner

Hello there, lovelies! Thank you for checking in with me! Today is November 24th, just a day after Thanksgiving, and I hope that you all had a wonderful time with your friends and family. This Thanksgiving was one of the best I've had in my life. Holidays aren't always easy, so when something like this goes smooth, it goes up higher on my list of favorites. For the second year in a row, my mother and I headed up the street to my grandmother's house for dinner where we were joined by my brother and his wife.

This year I decided I wanted to purchase a nice sweater to wear for the occasion. But, being that it's the holiday season and money is tight, I also decided on going to Goodwill to search for one. I first started off with a cream-colored knit sweater and a dark wash pair of skinny jeans. With that, I added a long necklace which definitely added some fall/thanksgiving vibes. Lastly, I tied the whole outfit together with my nude wedges for a nice cozy attire.

Each item with the exception of the shoes came from Goodwill and other local thrift stores.

- The sweater is American Eagle brand which I purchased from Goodwill at $5.99, while I couldn't find this exact sweater on their online store anymore, sweaters like this usually range anywhere from $40-$50 dollars according to their website.

- The necklace was bought from Goodwill at the same price of $5.99

- Then the jeans came from a local thrift at $3.00

- The shoes I bought on clearance at Charlotte Russe for just $9.99, what a steal, right?

In the end, this beautiful holiday outfit ended up coming together at a total of $24.97! Not too shabby!

I truly do enjoy thrift shopping and hunting for deals, and if you haven't ever done either of those things, I strongly encourage you to give them a try. It's a lot of fun and a good challenge. But most importantly, it's a great money saver. The perfect solution for any young adult, or someone who is just hoping to look fashionable on a budget.

With that being said, thank you for taking a moment out of your day to spend some time with me! Thank you for reading, and have a very happy and blessed day!
