What I Wore: Friendsgiving 2022

Hey, y'all!!  As I catch up and get back into a more normal-for-me schedule, a little more productivity has come from my less-pressure approach.  In today's post, I'm sharing what I wore to Friendsgiving and showing you some inside scoop on our fun!

Before we get started, I am 5'9", typically wear a 22/24, wear a 40B bra, a size 11 wide shoe, and my measurements are 52/49/58.

Also, these were the best outfit photos I could get at the time.  Disregard my messy front room.  It is a work-in-progress and a catch-all spot.

Betsey Johnson Rhinestone Combat Boots - all Torrid


This whole outfit is made of pieces I collected from Torrid.  I have become obsessed with shirt dresses, and these midi-length ones are fantastic.  I did size up to a 4 just to make sure I had room in the arms and waist.  I would have been fine in a 3, but I like the room in the 4.

The Velvet Moto is also a 4.  This one was tricky because the 3 fit much cuter and accentuated my curves a little more, but the 4 was more practical for wearing with anything with sleeves.  This jacket had a lot of negative reviews on the Torrid website, mainly not liking the slinkier lining that moves a little.  The non-cuff issue on the sleeves also made people angry.  The fabric is lighter and has less structure to it than the faux leather moto version, so it does fit a little differently.  It's a little larger in the body and a little more snug in the arms overall.

I don't mind the way the fabric hangs or moves.  I haven't had any issues with the jacket that would make me hate it.  I do wish there was a finished-looking cuff on the sleeves, but I do love the gathered shoulder detail.  I also bought the green/teal version. (also, during a sale when I could get them for 50% off)

I've already mentioned my rhinestone combat boots, but I need more colors.  Torrid brought them back for a second time during the holidays, so keep an eye on the website next holiday season.

I gifted these red, heeled boots (also from Torrid) to my friend Joaquin for his birthday. 
We had to take a rhinestone shot!

As the night wore on, I made everyone take a photo with me.  I missed them.

Sean made Oatmeal Scotchies and I made Gaystacks (Haystacks with sprinkles)
At first, I was upset because Sean's cookies were very popular, but then people started going crazy for the haystacks too.
