mark Dresses You for Thanksgiving Dinner...and Black Friday Shopping!

Thanksgiving Day is a jewel, to set in the hearts of honest men; but be careful that you do not take the day, and leave out the gratitude."
~E.P. Powell~

While I love the lights and decorations of Christmas, and the lore and scary stories that accompany Halloween, my all-time favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. There is something about the spirit of Thanksgiving that you can feel and smell in the air. It's a time when love and warmth is at an all-time high; family is embraced; and thankfulness is celebrated. In my family, it is also a time to get dressed up, and begin preparing for the holiday shopping season. Which is why I am super excited to see that mark has got style covered for Thanksgiving dinner and early-morning Black Friday shopping. Check out my favorite pieces for both occasions below!

THANKSGIVING DINNER

Thanksgiving Dinner attire for me comes down to two things: 1) colors that capture the season; 2) resilience, resilience, resilience! No one wants to feel as if they're being suffocated by their clothing after vacating the dinner table. Thus, my mark Thanksgiving Dinner selections:

Retro Right Dress; $34.00
Gimme The Boot; $50.00
Do the Tight Thing Tights in Basic Black; $18.00
Chain Glam Necklace; $24.00
Head First Hat; $24.00
On the Dot Neutral Eye Color Compact; $16.00
Gloss Gorgeous Stay On Lip Stain $11.00
It's a Cinch Belts; $18.00



BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING

As much of my Black Friday Shopping begins super early in the morning, and extends into the wee hours of the night, I always seek cozy styles that possess the comforts of flannel pajamas, yet aesthetics that are made 100% of chic urbanity. Exactly what my mark-created Black Friday Shopping look holds!

Alpine Style Sweater; $44.00
Gimme The Boot; $50.00
Talk Is Chic Phone Case and Lip Gloss; $18.00
Take It On Bag; $36.00
Make It Rich Lip Color Crayon; $11.00
Great Details Pants; $36.00
Star Status Earth Shadow Palette in Earth Angel; $14.00
Great Timing Watch; $40.00

I agree, Erika! Thanksgiving is such a lovely holiday. No presents involved, just family/friends and copious amounts of food... not to mention remembering why you are so grateful for all that you have. :) I love it.

Outfits are wonderful!

Perfection! I LOVE the gloss gorgeous lip stains - love the staying power with the shine I love in a gloss. And I have my eye on those belts. It's only a matter of time :)
