Hey Pretties,
1 down, 2 to go, woot woot! Thanksgiving and Black Friday are right around the corner. Today is the last part of the Thanksgiving Mini-Series. Thanksgiving=Eating, so you have your beautiful menu, you’ve got everything you need to make all those tasty yummies, now what are you going to do after Thanksgiving Dinner?? Yep, football is on every channel and the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, but what about a movie marathon? I picked 4 movies with a bunch of sequels so you can veg out in front of the tv the rest of the day and yes I included something for the kiddos. You’re going to need your strength for Black Friday shopping! Grab the fam and pop some popcorn, try it with a twist here.
What are you doing after Thanksgiving Dinner? Who wouldn’t watch Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Tyrese, and Ludacris?? I guess you know my choice!

Hi Pretties,
This OOTD was inspired by a recent “Pretty Perspective” on the robincharmagne Facebook page. On the Facebook cover page, I post a new handy dandy fashion tidbit each week. Last week, stripes were in the spotlight. For years, stripes were considered a fashion don’t for plus size women, but I think done correctly stripes work well for any body type. This stripe is wide and runs horizontally which makes the body appear leaner. The v-neck narrows the overall silhouette. The pants are a skinny ponte knit, a very wearable fabric. And the dark solid again makes for a slimmer overall silhouette. Of course boots are still on trend this year. This is a slouchy pair in a suede with the perfect heel height. I can wear these all day and my feet will still love me. And, the jewelry is old. Yes, statement necklaces are all the rage but sometimes with a stronger print such as stripes, simpler is better. I’ll probably re-run this outfit Thanksgiving day!
Do you wear stripes?

Hi Pretties,

So, you have some creative ideas for displaying your menu from the last post. But what’s on the menu and how do you prefer this ginormous feast? Enter Saveur magazine to the rescue. This is an awesome resource for food lovers with food, entertainment, and travel content from around the world. They have a ton of awesome info graphics for preparing Thanksgiving Dinner.

Hi Pretties,
Is your week going great? Mine is chugging right along. We’re about to have a very cold snap here in The A. I like it though, really puts me in the mood for the holiday season. Today is the start of a Thanksgiving Mini-Series. For the next three posts, I’ll feature some fun ideas for Thanksgiving Dinner. Me? No I will not be in the kitchen. But, I’m sure you Dinner Divas Extraordinaire are already planning your scrumptious Thanksgiving Dinner Menus. Wow your guests with some creative and unique ways to say what’s on the menu. A fantastic source of inspiration is Pinterest which I talked about here. Here are some of my faves – Pins via Pinterest!
Chalkboard Art is all the rage right now and I’d have to say that’s my first choice. Lovely blogger Gwen Moss at Gwen Moss home and life inspiration has an awesome post on Chalkboard Art including a link to a tutorial. I’m itching to try this project.
Which menu is your favorite? Have you tried Chalkboard Art?
