Outfit Of The Yesterday: Rusty Red + Ivory + Black + Jade

♫: Kiss Them For Me – School of Seven Bells

It is hard to believe that we are nearly one week away from Thanksgiving, hm? Husband and I are planning on having some old friends in town AND (after that!) traveling for the holidays this year, so I am currently being as lazy as possible at the moment to soak it all in. I have never actually traveled over the holidays before (a la chaotic airports and chaotic airplanes) (I should clarify: I’ve slid up I-25 through an icy-wind-bucket named Wyoming more times than I would like to count via car), so if you guys have any airport holiday travel tips please send them my way! It’d be much appreciated.

I am really looking forward to catching up with some old friends, though–I think that it’s the stuff like that that makes the holidays special. Are you guys planning on doing anything fun over Thanksgiving? Traveling anywhere neat? Cooking up something cool?

On to an outfit! Oversized coats were all over the runway for fall yet again this year, and while it’s a look that is probably doesn’t work for everyone, I like them because they are the ultimate in comfy-coziness.  My only tip for wearing them? Make sure to keep the rest of your outfit sleek & easy, since these coats tend to add bulk. Below are 10 of my favorite coats from around the internet:
