Macy's Thanksgiving Parade


   One of New York's most magical events is happening right now. The magic of the 86th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Many of you guys out there are watching the live performance of the parade at home or on the streets of New York City enjoying the action. So I know this is a fashion blog but this is a special post, today I'm going to be taking you back, to the history and behind the scenes of the parade.
    In the 1920's Macy's was enlarged to a block long. The president of Macy's wanted to celebrated so he promised the city a parade. The first the parade was only two blocks long, but they took many turns.The parade started as a tradition in 1924. The employees of Macy's started at 145th Harlem to 34th Street where Macy's was located. Every year the parade route is different. The parade got so big that, there was a live broadcast go television. Many celebrities sang performed on the floats. Featured performers this year may include McKayla Maroney, Aly Raiman, Gabby Douglas, Kayla Ross, Jordyn Wieber, Carly Rae Jepsen, Cody Simpson, Trace Adkins, Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, Whoopi Goldberg, Chris Isaac, Karmin, Christian Laettner, Sandra Lee, Mannheim Streamroller, Jennette McCurdy, Flo Rida, Don McLean, Megan and Liz, Olivia Culpo, the cast of Sesame Street, Kareen Abdul-Jabbar,  Neon Trees, the cast of Power Rangers Megaforce, and Whoopi Goldberg.

    On thing you probably didn't know is that all the floats in the parade take about one year to build, so after the parade this year they start to build the new floats for next year. Also they reuses some of the balloons. They parade studio is in Hoboken, New Jersey all the floated and balloons are build there. On Thanksgiving Day over 3.5 million people come to New York. Many floats and balloons featured in the parade every year are Dora, Charlie Brown, the cast of Sesame Street, Spider Man, Sponge Bob and who can forget Santa Claus. Santa starts the holiday seasons.
    If you're not watching the parade right now you still have until 12 o'clock pm.  I wish everyone has a great Thanksgiving, enjoying Black Friday shopping tomorrow!

Four Different Outfits



Four Different Outfits  Hey guys so, today I put together four different outfits. All four of the outfits are in different categories, comfy casual, edgy, dressy and girly.
   The first outfit is very comfy and casual. The big knit owl sweater is very cute and comfy. The mint color skinny jeans give the outfit a pop of color with the black sweater. For this outfit out want to keep it casual so you can pair it with some boots or moccasins. The second outfit is sort of on the edgy side. I chose this peace sign top, I love how the front of the top is cropped. For jeans I chose a pair of skinny black and white tie-dye jeans, the white top balanced out the outfit with the tie-dye jeans. My absolute favorite part of this outfit would have to be the black studded combat boots. The studs add a really cool looks. For accessories I just added a YOLO necklace. a horizontal cross ring, and a pair of black hoop earrings.
   The next outfit I chose a sheer aqua dress shirt, I love the shirt, because of the gold tips on the collar. For jeans I chose a pair of chord colored skinny jeans. I love the shoes in this outfit, the pair of tan block heel ankle boots look so cute. it gives the outfit more attitude and style. For accessories I added a pair of gold hoop earrings. The next outfit is my favorite, it's very cute and girly. The white lace is covering the mint dress, the two colors look awesome together. I decided to pair the dress with a pair of brown oxfords.Because the outfit is fairly simply, we want to accessorize. For accessories I added two bracelets a gold coil bracelet and a stretchy mint pyramid bracelet. Also a pair of gold drop down earrings and a vintage bird on a wire necklace.
In most of the outfits gold is included, I love how the color gives the outfit a vintage look.
So I hope you guys liked these outfits and that you give them a try. Thanks for reading!
