Thanksgiving Day Outfit Ideas & Holiday Cheer

With New Arrivals At Loft

It’s here! If you watched my Instagram Story then you already had an exclusive first look at these new arrivals. I can’t get over how cute some of these new pieces at Loft are! So many great dresses perfect for Thanksgiving, as well as some casual, comfy and cute tops to wear for your upcoming Holiday meal!

I’m literally obsessing over the Reindeer Sweater. I shared this style tip once on my stories but I’ll share it again, if you want to wear this reindeer sweater with leggings, maybe while decorating for Christmas, then you have gotta size up one for the appropriate length. Otherwise everything fits TTS. Loved hearing your excitement in your responses to this try on session full of cute new arrivals! Have fun shopping it all now and as always reach out if you have any questions on anything!

How I incorporated my favorite color into our Fall Front Porch Decor On a Budget

Adding color to your Fall Front Porch Decor & staying on budget

Can I just say for the record, not only do I believe in Pink, but I believe in COLOR! It just so happens that one of my favorite colors is Pink, and I actually incorporate it into all of my seasonal decor. No longer are the days where you have to save pink for Valentines day. In fact, I even have blush and rose gold tones incorporated into our Christmas tree. And I must say, it looks Spectacular. IN fact, its my most popular PIN on pinterest. More on that this upcoming Holiday season but for now we’re talking all things Fall!

Here’s how you can add a pop of pink (or your favorite color) into your Fall front porch decor without being too feminine or tacky looking.

First, If you haven’t seen my Instagram TV titled “Adding color to your Fall Front Porch Decor”, then click here to watch that short video first. You may save yourself some time reading and shopping this post.

Leaving off from the Instagram TV tutorial, basically I have my splurge worthy staple pieces (like my Zoey urns, Nantucket tall tapered Planters, and short square planters by the steps, plus my furniture- Swing, Rockers and blush bench) that I leave on my porch year round. Simply head to your local Hobby Lobby store and rotate the florals for the season in those. Each season Hobby Lobby puts their florals/seasonal decor on sale 40% off which is how you can stay on a budget while creating something uniquely you and out of this world gorgeous. I ordered on Amazon (also available in your local craft store typically) these square foam inserts that I use as the base filler in each planter or urn to stick the seasonal florals into so they don’t blow away.

While I definitely don’t swap out my porch furniture (even my blush pink bench), I definitely do swap out my throw pillows to tie into the Season. The best part is, once I’ve picked out my florals and throw pillows for the coordinating season, I simply store everything to use again the following year. I like to jazz things up a bit though for a fresh look each year by swapping out minute things like the real pumpkin stacks I created leading up my doorstep, and this year I added mums. Adding mums is just me naturally challenging myself in attempts to find my green thumb. We’ll see how that goes this year. Otherwise I’m all about the faux florals. No shame!

I also swap out my door mats for each season, and you can click here for the adorable one I found that reads “This house runs on pumpkin spice and everything nice”. What I do keep year round is the layering pink check door mat that is underneath each rug (exact pink check layering doormat here).

Oh and last but not least to tie in the pink, I found warm pink faux florals that I added into the gorgeous light up sunflower wreath I ordered on-line last year. I also added these florals into the wreaths I placed around my Zoey Urns. This ties in the layering pink check door mat. On the blush pink bench I picked a fall pillow that the print had pink tones in the leaf. And I also added some fall like burnt orangey pink florals into the planters behind the bench. Again tying it all together. When all is said and done I have to say my favorite thing on my porch is my zoey urns and the sparkly pumpkin trio stack I found at homegoods for just $30! Happy Fall Decorating Y’all!
