Black Friday Madness

please excuse the mess in the background, 
but I didn't have enough time to hide my library books from the camera before running out the door



Blouses - Jacob; Skirt - H&M; Wedges - Aldo
I wasn't exactly avoiding the Black Friday sales, I just had no desire to set foot in the mall and battle the crowds. But, that all changed when I decided I wanted something new to wear to my first holiday party of the season. Unenthused by the options in my closet my goal was to find a lace detailed t-shirt and I knew Jacob would have it; so after yoga on Saturday morning I was off to Rideau. 

To my surprise, the mall wasn't as jam packed with people as I was anticipating. Jacob, on the other hand, was a mad house, but there was no way I was letting that stop me. So, in I went. 

Not only did I find exactly what I was looking for - I found so much more. With 40% off the last ticketed price, I was in shopping heaven. After 45 minutes of browsing, testing and debating, I went running from the store with four shirts and a lace skirt (I cannot wait to wear them all!)

With so many new options I found it hard to get dressed pre-party, but I settled on the above blouse - cute and casual, yet chic. You really can't beat a classic look for a holiday get-together.
