Happy Wednesday friends!

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!!!!

XOXO
