Dress – Hand-me-down (similar fit); Scarf – DIY (similar); Cardigan – Old Navy (similar on sale!); Tights – Target (exact); Boots – Target (exact).

Since I’m working two jobs on Black Friday, traveling over the Thanksgiving holiday to see my family in New York wasn’t really an option (never mind Nick and I originally had plans to see a football game in Pittsburgh). So instead, I made a quick trip last week to hang out with my grandpa and eat lots and lots of Asian food.

I also had the chance to catch up with my dear friend (and new blogger!) Christine, who kindly snapped these pictures of me in Madison Square Park. When I travel, especially by bus, I like to pack light so I can shop more. The solution here was one cardigan + 2 dresses + 2 pairs of tights + 1 pair of boots. (I love how these tights bring out the moss green in the paisley print.) It worked well except last Wednesday turned out to be downright frigid.

There’s also a good chance I’ll recreate this outfit tomorrow since it’s food baby-proof. Speaking of which, happy Hanukkah and Thanksgiving*!
