an old country thanksgiving

we hosted thanksgiving this year and it was a lovely day. not only was it a joyous day of good food and good tidings, but it was also my brother's birthday. needless to say, it was a day full of love and cheer (and cake, pie, and lots of turkey). my parents are both old souls (despite their young ages). they love refurbished vintage furniture, records, pyrex, antique books, farms, and their old colonial home. welcome to our new england, country-style thanksgiving in black & white. 

my ma put a huge chalkboard in the entry of the home-- i absolutely adore drawing on it. 

my latest creation:

what i wore: 

vintage christian dior dress (one of my favorite thrifting finds), american appeal tights, black booties (i can't remember where i got them, naughty, i know).

i feel so blessed today; what a wonderful family i have. i hope everyone's day was grand! i look forward to reading about everyday's day; i am thankful for blogging. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

i feel so blessed at this point in my life. as the weather gets colder (and i get fatter) i get jollier. doesn't seem to make sense, but it is true. i love the christmas holiday, and don't even get me started on thanksgiving! we will be hosting thanksgiving at my house this year and i am quite excited. i love cooking and baking for the holidays. i have my pinterest board filled with delicious goodness. 

i got a haircut. chopped off close to seven inches, i was hyperventilating in the salon chair, but i was pleasantly surprised on how it turned out. thoughts?

i went out with a girlfriend last night for (epically delicious) sushi. we ate at genki ya and i would definitely recommend it. 

outfit cred: top shop skinnies, nasty gal top, & vintage biker jacket.

i am so excited for the holidays! get ready for many pictures of food & family.
