Engagement Celebration Time

So my parents, little bro and grandma still live in my hometown, which happens to be a long 6 hours away from the city life I love.  So what did my mom do when she heard the news of our engagement?  Planned a trip of course.  Just 2 days after (which would be Nov. 29th) we got engaged my mom drove 6 hours to see my ring in person, give us an adorable, musical engagement card and gush over how happy she is.  I am so thankful to have a mom who really would go to the ends of the earth to be there for me.  She's amazing!!!

I feel like the luckiest girl in the world!!!!!

The weekend after Thanksgiving the boyfriend (now fiance) and I headed to my hometown to see my family.  My mom wasnted me there for family photos and the bf wanted to go to ask my dad for permission to ask me for my hand in marriage.  I know some people think it's old fashioned (some of my friends included), but I think it's respectful to your parents and overall a romantic gesture.  Anyways...this is what I wore to work Friday, because we headed out of town as soon as we gott of work.  These stretchy jeans were perfect, the vest was great for layering and I just can't get enough of these comfy boots!!!
Here's What I Wore:
Tweed Moto Vest- $10 at TV Fashion Outlet
Top- $12 at Marshalls
Jeans- $12 at Ross
Boots- Gifted from BF
Earrings & Beaded Bracelets- 6 for $5 at MIZ Accessories
Bracelet- $3 at Charming Charlies
Outfit Total- About $39
