Every year I pull this buffalo plaid pea coat for a few wears. It is one of the earlier things that appeared on this blog (here with a skinnier me). I can’t seem to let this coat go even though the fit is a bit more snug and if I were to buy it today I would probably buy one that was a bit longer in the body.
I like this buffalo plaid outfit because I stuck with black and denim to allow the jacket to pop. There is nothing really competing with the coat.
This weekend was full of seasonal fun. I took my kids to a Christmas tree farm to take some pictures. I always give family members a new picture of our family or the kiddos as part of their Christmas basket. I know some appreciate it more than others but I like the tradition of getting these pictures done. I was really happy with how the pictures turned out even though we were a bit colder then expected while out doing them. The endless evergreens on the farm made for the perfect backdrop.
The kids also helped my parents decorate their Christmas tree while my husband and I snuck out for yet another Black Friday weekend deal. We had broken our steam mop a few years ago and finally got a new one today. It was a definite upgrade. I forgot how awesome the steam mop is for cleaning up.
Today is Cyber Monday (in case you have forgotten or haven’t been bombarded by emails). Here are a few deals.
JCREW has 40% off, plus an extra 10% off! AND free shipping. Plus they brought back the red Chateau Parka. I am so tempted.
Bauble Bar has 35% off. I took advantage of this deal and stocked up on so much. I love their ear crawlers and fancy studs.
Nordstrom has an extra 20% off certain sale items.
I have shared a bunch of other sales on my other Black Friday posts. Many of the sales are continuing through Monday. Happy Shopping!
