So Blessed. & Thanksgiving Outfit Ideas.

This may seem so cliche this time of year, but I think that it is important to reflect on how truly blessed we are. I feel God's presence is with me on the daily basis. I need to stop and reflect on all that God has bestowed on me. For starters, he has blessed me with the most amazing parents are girl could ask for. These two are truly my best friends and I wouldn't trade my relationship with them for anything. 

Second, we have been blessed with our health. As many of you have known my father is a cancer survivor. Specifically, the longest living liver cancer survivor. I am so proud of everything he has been through and how strong he is. My parents are the most resilient people I know. I am so proud to call them mine. 

I want to give thanks to God for the experiences I have had in college. I have had my eyes opened to so many new opportunities in college that I didn't even know existed before. This has made me a much more outgoing and confident person that I was not in high school. College has been a time for me to truly find myself. I am so thankful for that. 

Finally, I would like to give thanks for where I have finally made it in my self journey. Leaving high school I was insecure, hurt, and seeking something to make me feel better about myself. Through many years and people walking in and out of my life I have finally been able to heal emotionally. I realize that you go through these experiences in life to make you a stronger person, and that is what I am thankful for. 

With so many things to be thankful for, I am very thankful for the people that read and follow my blog (you guys!). I love being able to share this part of my life with you all. Clothes have always been a passion of mine and it is great to be able to share my passion with you all. Check out my outfit details below! I hope that you all have a truly blessed holiday with the ones that you love. xoxo

Outfit Details. 

Sweater. I love love love this sweater. I recently purchased it from Express during one of their 40% off sales. I highly recommend to shop at Express during their many sales as they always have amazing deals. You can find that sweater here. 

Leggings. I shared about these leggings in my last blog post. They are very comfy and have adorable details with the buttons going up the front. I bought these when we were boutique shopping in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa at Lillian Grace Boutique on the square. I have been able to wear them with many different outfits. Such a good buy. 

Boots. Riding  boots are a necessity for any wardrobe. These Naturalizer boots are basic, but tie this outfit together with an earthy feel. I love the riding boots that are laced up the back; such a cute detail! 

Hat. This adorable hat was purchased at Lulus. Caps such as this are very popular lately. They are very flattering on many different face shapes.

I hope you all have a happy Turkey Day!
