Yes, I know I totally look like a basic white girl with my Starbucks in hand, BUT that is not a pumpkin spice latte.  Call me crazy but I don't even like their PSLs! I think their bitter and gross. (I do love everything pumpkin though. I made these pumpkin spice cupcakes last week. They are SO easy to make and not to mention delish!) My Starbucks drink of choice is a white chocolate mocha... yummmm.

This is what I wore Friday to go trick or treating. We went with Larry's 2 year old Godchild and our 3 month old baby nephew. Let me tell you about my husband... he's funny. His sister was carrying the baby and Larry would walk up to the house with the baby's candy bucket with her to get candy for himself! I swear he's a mess. Our poor future children.. their daddy will most definitely be stealing all of their candy!

I'm not exactly sure why, but this is probably one of my favorite outfits ever. Maybe it's because  I've got on my new favorite boots, my favorite color combo- mustard and navy, and one of my best goodwill finds- this AE tee!

Larry as a jester (he had a scary mask but couldn't wear it in front of the kids) and Charlie poo as a ballerina :)

Y'all, it's November.... NOVEMBER! That's just crazy. Time seriously is going by faster as I get older. While sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it! When people ask me my age, all I can think is... 23, when did that happen? How am I almost considered in my mid-twenties? I don't love it. I want to be 22 forever. Anyways. November.. It's finally feeling like fall out, and I don't feel crazy in my scarves. (Though I will admit, I wore this outfit last week and I was totally over dressed because when I went to lunch it was like 82 degrees and I was burning up.) This coming weekend we'll be going hunting, and in a few weeks I will be having Thanksgiving dinner with my family for the first time in 4 years! And not to mention what comes after November.. December! Christmas! I. Can't. Wait.

Please Excuse the random pot here. My mom brought it to my house and put it there, and while I don't think it's a bad spot for the pot, it just looks super awkward in these pictures since it's empty.

I've never owned a pair of combat boots and never really have I wanted a pair, but I stopped in Target the other day, and something about these intrigued me to try them on. When I went to grab them, I noticed they were on sale for $25, which made me like them even more! I tried them on and knew that I had to have them. These pictures of them don't do them justice, and neither do the pictures on the Target site. They're actually lighter than they appear and they have a cool texture in the brown.

I've always been that person that wouldn't wear black and brown together, and I taught my husband not too either (not that he always listens). Lately though, I think you can make black and brown work! I think that my brown boots work with my black pants since my top is a shade of brown. What do you think about wearing black and brown together?
