2011 has been quite a rough year for me in many ways, but despite the bad, there has been some good. I’m very blessed and have a lot to be thankful for this year.
To pay homage to all of the things I am thankful for, I assembled a symbolic outfit that I’m wearing this Thanksgiving. No, it’s not a pilgrim or native American costume. Each piece represents something that I am thankful for.
Bright Top: For memories of bright times with my father, that I will carry with me always.
Patterned Tights: For how tight my mom, sister, grandma and I remain despite the tribulations of this year. In fact, we’ve probably grown closer.
Pleated Skirt: For my boyfriend who supports, loves and puts up with me everyday. He com-pleats me.
Peep Toe Heels: For rising to new heights and finally committing to this blog (which has been more well received in the first few months than I could have ever imagined! Thank you for “peeping” it!)
Chanel Bag: For… well, this bag (hey it’s honest!)
Finally, I am so thankful for everyone who reads and follows Practically Spoiled! Thank you for allowing me to share with you and thank you for supporting me! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving (…and a VERY successful Black Friday!)
