Plaid wrap skirt

We have been having so much fun decorating the house, planning school parties and holiday dance shows this last week!  I have fully embraced my inner "dance mom" at this point!  She has been waiting patiently to come out and it's go time! Both of the girls are in jazz right now while Capri still does ballet at a separate studio.  The jazz girls are performing at the Mission Inn's Festival of Lights this year and I'm dying!  I live for this stuff!  Us moms have gotten together for full sequin domination on the girl's performance shirts.  We have gloves, leg warmers and bows that rival the size of a bowling ball in the works!  Going to be the cutest thing I've ever seen!  

I also need to brag for a second and say I have crushed my shopping list this year!  Granted, I only have like 5 gifts to buy but still worth noting!  We don't go overboard at all on the girl's gifts.  Growing up we got about 4-5 gifts and it was just perfect.  

My Black Friday and Cyber Monday picks are rolling in and I am so giddy!  We have plaid top, velvet top, this adorable wrap skirt, super chic booties and some over the knee boots!  Winning!!!!  Do you girls get anything fabulous for yourself? Share! Share!

Fall plaid skirt

We just got home last night from our cruise and are adjusting to land legs again.  We had the best time!!! It's our annual Disney cruise that we make into a "girls trip" with my mom, myself and the kidlets.  We got to fly first class this year which was a real treat!  Hello, ice-cream sundae and champagne!!!  Not to mention, I sat across from Henry Cavill for the 5 hour flight!  Not sad at all! I'm sure he is seeking a restraining order at the moment!  We typically stay in Miami the night before embarking the ship so so we have plenty of time.  We boarded Wednesday and partied our booties off until Sunday! I will do a full recap post on it next week!  

We are back to rainy, cozy weather today at home which this mama is soaking up!  I plan on lighting every candle in the house, firing up the fire place for the first time since in the new house and padding around in my robe all day!  I may even destroy a couple online sales popping up before Black Friday and Cyber Monday!  Speaking of sales, this jacket is on major sale right now!  I'm so glad I snatched it up in early fall because I've been wearing it on repeat.  I styled it here with a cozy camel colored sweater, skinny jeans and my favorite leather booties.   I also used it to top off a clean navy blue blouse and white culottes here.  It's so versatile and the heavy collar gives it such a chic look. 

I paired the coat today with a  winter look over a wine colored v-neck sweater and festive plaid skirt.  Both the sweater and skirt are on sale now too!!  This look would be perfect for Thanksgiving dinner or brunch this Christmas season!   

Stay tuned for lots of goodies being added to the SHOP tab at the top of my site as well as the rest of my specially curated gift guides rolling out this week! Never miss a beat and get updates early by subscribing to Life with Lipstick On  too!
