{Five Fab} For the Weekend Vol. 7

I can not believe that Thanksgiving is next week! These last few months have been flying by and I know these last weeks of 2016 will do the same, so I am hoping to live life to the fullest and just enjoy as much as I can.

The Chicago Christmas tree lighting is tonight, so I am going to go and check that out (you can follow along on my snapchat).  It’s also supposed to feel kinda wintry this weekend, with a little snow to top it off, so I am picking up some new gloves because I think I may have taken mine to storage and I am not even about that going to search for them life right now. I am saving that for when I have to go and get all of my Christmas decor which will be after Thanksgiving.

Anyway, I hope you have a great weekend and here’s the Fab Five For the Weekend!

Shop: I am pulling out my booties of course now that Fall is here and these Michael Antonio booties are FIRE! I love all the colors that they come in, especially the grey and burgundy.  And the price at just under $30 is crazy.

Wear:  As mentioned above, mama nature is planning to drop some cold temperatures on us, so I will definitely be pulling out some of my favorite cold weather coats like this beauty. I remember stalking this coat for months & I am still just as much in love with it as I was when I purchased it two years ago.

Faux Fur Plus Size Boyfriend Jeans
Coat: Michael Kors (old – similar here & here) | Sweater: H&M (old – similar similar)
Similar Sunglasses | Boots: Aerosoles (so comfortable)  | Jeans: ASOS Curve (old – similar

Read: I am so geeked to see the movie that has been made portraying the women from the book Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race. Their story is one that I have to sadly admit that I had never heard of until I saw the preview for the movie, which comes out in January 2017. I downloaded the book to my Audible and it is a MUST read or rather listen to for me before I see the movie.

Watch: I have loved The Wiz since I first saw it as a child and my rugrat got a copy of it when she was in high school and watched it constantly. I saw yesterday that it is available on Netflix and I can’t wait to watch it again and again and… The classic was also treated with some modern love by The Wiz Live last December, and it was AWEsome! That version is available for purchase for under $7 & viewing on Amazon.




Drink/Eat:  Things are definitely starting to get a bit hectic with the holidays fast approaching, so simplicity is the key. This Peanut Tofu Buddha Bowl has simple ingredients and looks super easy to make.



 Yasss to the Weekend!
