I can’t believe it’s the end of November and I’m over here wearing an off the shoulder top and the weather isn’t freezing! Have I mentioned how much I love Dallas? haha. I’m still getting used to the fact that I’m never going to see ridiculous amounts of snow and I’m not complaining! Over the years on the blog, I’ve complained so much about Rochester winters and it’s feels worse when you’re a blogger and you want to shoot outside but can’t. Good weather makes life so much easier and quite honestly this whole thing feels like a dream come true. Alright, I’ll stop now for all you Northern gals haha.
I hope everyone scored some great deals on Black Friday! Of course the sales never seem to end since today is Cyber Monday. Luckily this top is still available in all sizes and on sale for an extra 40% off with the code “SHOPFAST” today. While I have tons of off the shoulder tops in my closet, this one’s special to me since the bows are just so feminine and eye catching with the stripes. Plus it’s so comfortable to wear since it won’t move up and down on your shoulders constantly throughout the day like other OTS tops. These black ankle boots that I’m wearing are also 50% off today and if you follow me on Instagram, you might’ve seen the picture where I show the tortoise shell heels which sadly I forgot to take pictures of. It feels like it’s been forever since I’ve stepped outside for an outfit shoot so it feels like I forgot how the whole thing worked. Seriously guys, I forgot how to pose which explains why I only posted three pics of this look! It’s that bad haha.
Lastly, a special thank you to everyone for the kind words and support through the difficult process of helping a loved one recover from a stroke. After staying in the hospital with my Grandma for a total of 28 days, we were finally able to go home and now she’s doing much better. I didn’t know the meaning of gratitude until I went through this experience. In order to spread the kindness and give back, I’m doing TONS of giveaways in December which will mostly be on Instagram (@ruyakiraccc) so keep an eye out and don’t miss out!
Hope everyone has a great Monday!
