This is one of my mother's favorite dresses, so I decided to wear it on Thanksgiving.  I did decide to go with comfy fur boots instead of the normal pumps I wear with it.  N told me I was going animal, but it's actually a pattern of leaves which although black and white, I felt was perfect for the autumn holiday.  It had the added benefit of having no waist, so I ate as much as humanly possible.  There are no diets on Thanksgiving.
