The theme for this month’s Thrifty Six collaboration is “Inspired by Travel”—what a fun prompt, huh? Immediately my mind started racing with visions of Parisian chic looks, tropical accessories, easy floral dresses perfect for the Tuscan countryside... But as I started to picture outfits I could create using pieces from my own closet, I realized none of the looks incorporated secondhand items, ha!

Since the food won’t be cooking itself and the pie needs to be eaten, I’ll keep things short and sweet today! Continue reading “A White Thanksgiving?”
