    I can't believe we are already at the end of November! I don't know about you, but Fall just flew by for us. One minute it's Labor Day, the next we are carving Turkey! And although it makes me sad that it's the end of football season, I'm really excited about my final look with Trending Now. If you saw on instagram, I attended the FSU vs NC State 2016 football game week before last, and rocked this exact look! 

    During the cooler months, I love long sleeve dresses. They still give you the great look of a summer dress while keeping you warm. Throw on your favorite riding boots and a statement necklace and poof! Your outfit is complete. Oh and P.S.: Congratulations to Danielle who won last month's giveaway

    I am in LOVE with all the Florida State clothing that Trending Now has on their site and in their boutique in Tallahassee. It makes dressing for Game Day so much more fun when your look is cute, don't you agree? What's your favorite way to rock your school's colors for Game Day? 

    Pssst.. just a little word to the wise when attending football games. They're so strict with purses and bags, so my favorite option is a belt bag or super small cross body. Just grab your phone, ID, some cash and lipstick because let's be real - that's all you really need. Plus you'll have your hands free to enjoy some.... refreshing beverages while you tailgate. Ha! 

    I'll have some Cyber Monday posts and codes coming your way soon. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

    Sometimes fall feels like a tough time to figure out what the heck to wear. The weather is absolutely Antartica freezing in the morning and by the time noon hits, you're ready to hit the beach. Well not exactly, but I'm sure you understand my sentiments.

    This is why layering needs to be a major part of your fall wardrobe. Just because the weather temperatures are literally 30 degrees apart throughout the day, doesn't mean you can't still throw on your favorite pieces. Repeat after me ladies: Layer, Layer, LAYER!

    First of all, I'm OBSESSED with this Jane Hudson dress. Y'all, it's SO good. Like one of the comfiest things I've ever worn. (Plus it doubles as a fantastic #BADxGameDay outfit piece for FSU games!) The garnet/maroon color fits perfectly with a fall palette, which is why I had to figure out a way to continue to wear it during the cooler months. Enter a trusty-never-ever-fails-me-not-even-once chambray shirt. I wanted to mix it up, so I layered mine underneath this frock and absolutely loved the look it gave me. Worried you'll get too warm? Just rock your button up on the outside of the dress and peel off to give your arms some air once it gets warmer.

    Did I mention that right now, with Thanksgiving sales, this dress is marked down? YES PLEASE! Hurry over to scoop it up and shop the rest of my look right here:
