I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday! I seriously can't get over how many good deals there were this year. Many of you messaged me to tell me about some of the things you purchased from my Black Friday/Cyber Monday round up which makes me SO happy!!! I also got a lot of my holiday shopping checked off my list (plus a couple of things for myself- lol) - how about y'all? Of course I do still have some shopping left to do. I will be honest, I kind of like spreading my shopping out because I find it FUN. Is that weird? But shopping to me has always been fun and so I would be kind of disappointed to get it all done early, lol. Stay tuned to Ashley's Passion for Fashion because I am going to be posting some gift guides for her, him, etc to the blog as requested by y'all on my Instastories!
So on to today's look. I found this sweater in stores the day that H&M had their grand opening here in Chattanooga. I fell in love instantly when I tried it on, and even better, it was only $19.99. Since blogging, I have found that unfortunately some of these GREAT deals I find in stores are not available online. It's very odd but the EXACT sweater I am wearing is HERE but it is NOT available in orange online, just in tan/green (which I love those colors by the way). But, I have linked almost IDENTICAL orange sweaters underneath my picture above. Orange can be a tricky color to wear but I am in LOVE with this shade of orange. Through my years as a student at UT in Knoxville and adding different shades of orange into my wardrobe, I have found that for me, a burnt orange is my favorite shade to wear! This definitely is a statement-making sweater but I love bright colors. If you're unsure, H&M is a great place to try a trend like this because it is inexpensive. I also love this sweater because of the way the sleeves fit. They are "balloon" style and tighter around my wrists but bigger in the sleeves. So comfortable because my sleeves don't fall down all day, but also stylish!
Also - these boots y'all! Some of my faves. I posted about them on my Instastory a few weeks ago, but I found them on sale at Target (of course) for under $15!!! They are currently online HERE. I just noticed they are called "Granny Block Booties" hahaha - I would be pretty impressed if my 90 year old Nana wore these though! lol.
I hope y'all have a blessed week!!!!

Casual Holiday Style
November 20, 2017
{Outfit Details}
Sweater: H&M (here, on sale for $17.99 now!) // Leggings: Via Spiga (here, LOVE these faux leather leggings for only $26.95, a great deal and they are SO comfy!) // OTK boots: Target (here, $44.99, go up 1/2 a size) // Handbag: Louis Vuitton (here)
I hope everyone is having a fantastic start to the week. I have been busy prepping for a new job (YAY!) and also helping my Mom get ready for our big Thanksgiving meal on Thursday! I am SO excited that Thanksgiving is only THREE days away, and that Black Friday shopping/sales are coming up right after! Speaking of, I am working on some gift guides and also a Black Friday/Cyber Monday shopping guide as well! I love polling y'all on Instagram and appreciate all the feedback for what you're looking for in terms of shopping. Excited to share that later this week!
Ok so on to this casual holiday look. Speaking of polling on Instagram, 66% of y'all voted that you would like to see some casual holiday looks (whereas 34% voted for dressy holiday looks!). I will try to incorporate both in the next few weeks but tonight I wanted to share this look that would be ideal for a casual look on either Thanksgiving Day or for Christmas. I mean you can't go wrong with a red sweater for Christmas. One of my favorite tips for sweaters is to go up a size (I am wearing a size medium here) for a looser fit, that you can wear over leggings! I also love that this sweater fits off-the-shoulder if you go up a size!
I paired my sweater with some of my favorite faux leather leggings that are just under $27! To top of my look, I added my favorite OTK boots from Target...these are seriously the perfect designer dupes for the Stuart Weitzman pair that retail for over $700. I am eyeing the taupe pair next! You could also easily wear flat boots with this look, but I decided while it is "casual" I wanted to dress it up a tiny bit with my OTK heeled boots. This look would be perfect for a Christmas dinner at your family's house.
What is YOUR favorite holiday style!? Leave me a comment and let me know, and stay tuned for some super exciting SALES!!!!
XOXO,
Ashley

Happy Thursday, dolls!
Can y'all believe that Thanksgiving is NEXT week!? I am SO excited as I absolutely LOVE this holiday (not to mention I cannot wait to watch Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade to OFFICIALLY kick off the holiday season! Also as I was typing this post they just had a commercial for the parade....AHHH!!). So back to what I was saying, since T-giving is next week, now is the time to start prepping your Thanksgiving menu (as my Mom and I have been doing this week)...and also your Thanksgiving #ootd!!!
This dress is one of my absolute favorites from my H&M haul a few weeks ago. I thought it would make THE perfect Thanksgiving Day outfit! When I tried it on in the dressing room, I bought it with the upcoming holidays in mind. There is something about plaid that just screams "holidays" to me! GREAT NEWS too, it is available in ALL sizes online right now! Can y'all believe it is just $19.99!? You seriously cannot beat that price, and it is GREAT quality. Besides the adorable green/black checked pattern, they have black/white, light pink/white, and red/black checked....could a dress get any cuter!? Oh wait, it does! This dress has POCKETS as well. Sigh....definitely in love with it!
So I wanted to show y'all a fun way to style it with layering! I am wearing one of my new fave cardigans (also from H&M) that is only $30. This is a great basic to have in your closet...I have worn it countless times already! So to give a bit of shape to this shirt style dress, I added a belt. A good belt is another great staple piece to have in your closet; you will be surprised how many ways you can style it! If you eat too much turkey on Thanksgiving, just take the belt off to give yourself a little more room post-meal! HAHA! See, fashion can be practical too!

If you order this dress right now, the estimated shipping date is before Thanksgiving! And, H&M is offering FREE SHIPPING on all orders with code 9054!!
I hope y'all are having a wonderful week!!! Also, just wanted to remind you about my event I am hosting tomorrow night at fab'rik from 5-7:30 PM! I'm SO excited to hang out with y'all & I hope to see you there!!!

A Stroll Down Rainbow Row in Charleston
November 13, 2017
{Outfit Details}
Bodysuit: Forever 21 (no longer online, similar here on sale for under $20!) // Skirt: Dillard's (here, a favorite of mine this fall! Also available in navy. $44) // OTK Boots: Target (here, go up 1/2 a size. LOVE these boots. A great value at $44.99) // Belt: Target (here and it's reversible!) // Hat c/o Scala (here, LOVE this hat! So versatile and on trend for fall) // Purse: Vintage from my Mom but love this quilted one here
Hi dolls!
Happy Monday! I hope everyone is having a fabulous start to their week.
Tonight I'm so excited to share with y'all one of my favorite looks from our trip to Charleston (read more about our trip in this post HERE). We took a stroll down the gorgeous Rainbow Row and it was just as beautiful as the pictures! Rainbow Row is definitely a must-see if you make a trip to Charleston. We enjoyed strolling by the houses and dreaming about how fabulous it would be to live in one of them (also....we had to stop and smell the window box flowers!).
So for our stroll, I wore one of my favorite skirts this fall (see another way I styled it in this post here) with my new favorite OTK boots from Target. These are seriously a steal under $50! I think I may need the taupe color too!? lol. If you order these, I would go up 1/2 a size. I love these in particular because they are adjustable at the top of the boot with a tie string so they fit your legs better. Also...can we talk about this adorable hat!? These hats are SO in for fall, and I am in love with mine! It's so versatile and I have worn it countless times already. It definitely adds a touch of chic to an outfit....and maybe a touch of "biker chick...." as my next picture will explain....
OK y'all, this seriously happened!!! We were in this cute little alley taking pictures, and all of a sudden we see a motorcycle make a U-turn and head up the street where we are snapping away. We both thought, "oh no! We must be in someone's driveway..." lol. However, we would like to give a big shoutout to Mike with the motorcycle who approached us and asked, "Would you like to use my motorcycle to pose for pictures?" Like seriously, sometimes being a blogger is pretty COOL! Lol! So this guy parked his bike in this alley for me to take pictures with it!!!! What a MEMORABLE time! We will never forget ya, Mike! And I got about as close to a motorcycle as I ever want to be....with it PARKED! lol.
Thanks so much for reading, dolls! Love you guys!
XOXO
Ashley
