Ah! It’s Monday of Thanksgiving week and the countdown to the holiday officially got real – like, where did the time go!! This week is going to be heavy on the holiday content side, so bear with me, but I promise ALL good things! Today’s post is all about Inspiration for Thanksgiving Recipe and Outfit Ideas – whether you will be with your friends or family this Thanksgiving (or both), I’ve put together some of my favorite pieces and recipes to help make the perfect holiday!

Where did the time go! This fall flew by and here we are chatting Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving is by far one my favorite holidays – even over Christmas! You don’t have the pressure of buying gifts for friends and family, and your only concern is how tight your pants will be after lunch. While Thanksgiving is dedicated to spending time with my family, this year I hosted a Friendsgiving to spend time with my friends who are like family to me! In partnership with American Express, I’m sharing how my Blue Cash Everyday Card helped me created an epic Friendsgiving from the meal to the décor!

Today I’m SUPER excited to share a peek inside our home tour compliments of the lovely Lauren Painter from Neighborhood-Ing. Lauren does great features each month of apartments / condos in Chicago’s amazing neighborhoods. I’m a proud resident of the West Loop neighborhood and I wouldn’t change it for the world! I remember when I was looking for a place to buy, the realtor kept telling me I needed to consider the West Loop – that it was upcoming. This was back in 2008 and BOY am I glad that I listened to her – that takes a lot from me 🙂 I love the location and will never grow tired of its perfect combination of city / suburb . I have a super eclectic taste and loving combining high and low pieces in my home – my favorite way to find incredible things is antiquing! So many good finds!
