I almost didn't answer this because I know it's not what you want to hear, but I think it's so amusing that I'm going to share anyway...NO ONE COPY ME EITHER!!!
I'll be digging crystals in Arkansas, so i was instructed that whatever I wore would have to be tossed due to the red clay issues. so...
Groddy old sweatshirts, quite literally "mom" jeans - in addition to the fact that they are high waisted, have tapered legs, and don't even hit my ankles, I got them from my mom's stash that she is selling in her garage sale, and rubber boots. I really am going to have to post those pictures.
I am sure someone else will give you good ideas though!

Since I can't buy a new outfit, I have been searching my closet for a "new" outfit. This is what I am thinking: Raspberry-colored tulip (?) Anthro skirt Brown embellished Express cami Cream Limited cardigan with satin tie I think I need some new shoes to complete the outfit (I am thinking bronze), so will probably hit up Target or something really cheap.
since my aunt's family is getting crazy big (six girls almost all married with kids, their bfs/husbands with THEIR families) my mom decided that she doesn't want to feel like strangers at her own thanksgiving, so it will be my immediate family, and maybe my aunt that i don't like . she thinks i'm living in sin with my bf. so i might wear black lipstick and all black to that.
the day after is my grandpa's birthday. i think i'm wearing..
with and similar shoes. it's his 80th so it's a party.

Nothing fancy this year - we are not traveling (first time in nearly four years!) and no one is coming to us either, so we are making fresh turkeys and bringing some extra to another couple we know. She is pregnant with their second daughter (due 12/1) and won't feel up to much, so we're just going casual. I'll probably be in jeans and a sweater, since we'll be hanging out and playing with their first daughter, who is two now.

Hey laken1! I'll be in Mena for T-giving which is about an hour from Mt. Id I think. Digging for crystals sounds like fun. Please post about the experience when you return.

Too bad, Mount Ida is about 4 hours south of me, so no turkey for you (said in my Seinfeld soup nazi voice )
iam so glad this was topic was posted I was thinking @ this today and trying to get something in my head before leaving for houston. I know I want to wear myblack heel boots Iam thinking @ a black skirt that has a blue and white design and a black long sleeve top that has little peep holes on the shoulder unsure on the jewlery yet . Well maybe thats to matchy
I think I'll wear this silk/velvet jacket and winter white pants. I'll probably wear a brow cami underneath and either gold or bronze shoes. Another option would be to wear the jacket with brown pinstripe pants.
gee, you girls are on top of things. i don't know what i'll wear tomorrow let alone next thursday. i think i'll just rip off your outfit, ejc423. so cute and so ME!
Rip away--I would love to have a turkey day twin .

probably jeans and a sweater to my friend's thanksgiving, and a nice dress to my family/inlaws.
