Affordable Holiday Style in Emerald + Satin
This is by far the most versatile luxe top I have ever owned, and at $27 you can’t say no. You can wear this Lush Satin Henley to work, out on a date, + it makes for a great affordable holiday style. Pair it with a leopard belt to add a little sass to it 😉 Right now, I’m really into simple looks that are glam + easy to throw together. I don’t like spending a ton of time deciding on an outfit. I know, blogger blasphemy right?! Emerald is so popular this holiday season, so I think this top is perfect for a Christmas party! If green isn’t your thing, the red shade is gorgeous! I’m considering getting it as well. It’s even fully stocked right now in all colors and sizes. THAT NEVER HAPPENS, so grab it while you can! You’ll look so glam this holiday season, that you’ll make that cousin of yours that always tries to upstage you super jealous. Knowing it was easy and affordable? Icing on the cake. Lastly, no these jeans aren’t supposed to be wrinkled. I’ve lost some weight lately, and need to get these tailored!
Thanksgiving Traditions Old + New
This week we are going home for Thanksgiving. I can’t wait to see my family! We haven’t been home in a while, so I’m excited to spend some quality time with everyone. This year we are starting a new tradition by combining Nathan and I’s families into one big Thanksgiving, which I’m really grateful for. I’m sure every couple can relate to the struggle that is trying to decide which families house you are going to for the holidays, how much time you’re spending at whose house, etc. I don’t really have any Thanksgiving traditions other than I LIVE for black Friday shopping. Every Thanksgiving my mom goes and gets the paper and I spend the day going through ads, picking out what I’m getting, mapping out my attack, grabbing Starbucks, and standing in line for hours until stores open. It’s absolute chaos, but it’s so much fun!
Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Affordable + emerald! Love it! That top looks fantastic with your hair color too 🙂 I like that you are combining Thanksgiving with the two families. I wish my family had done that. I know distance makes it difficult for some families, but mine were roughly 40 minutes away from each other. Have a great Thanksgiving and enjoy the time with family! Again, great post and beautiful photos.

Thank you so much, Becca! I feel so fortunate this year to spend the holidays with both of my families under the same roof. I hope you also have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families! Just think, you get to enjoy turkey more than once! 😉

I love the emerald satin henley! This color is really hard to find some years! I am a red head so green is my color. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving and that all goes well with the combined families! What fun that would be! I hope to do that one day as well!
Oh my gosh, you’ll look stunning in emerald green! I hope you have a great Thanksgiving as well.

Thank you, Ana! It’s a unique color you don’t see very often thats for sure!

Oh the struggle is so real about holidays and family. We live away from both sides- all an equal driving distance of about 3-4 hours. We host Easter so it’s the one holiday that is big for us with both sides of the family coming together. Thanksgiving we always alternate years with my side and my husband’s side.
This blouse is so fabulous- one of my favorite colors!

That’s so nice you get to spend Easter with both sides of your family at once! I hope to do this in the future with more holidays, not just Thanksgiving! It’s so much more convenient, and it’s SO nice to have everyone together at once.
Thanks for reading!
