Ladylike in Pink

One of my favorite things about the fall fashion season is most definitely the outerwear. This season has me combining my favorite color in the form of outerwear, in a very ladylike style. Pink coats are everywhere this season, and as soon as I saw this one I knew I would do just about anything to smuggle it bring it home with me. With denim, over top dresses, this coat is going to get a ton of action this fall season.

Leather has definitely been having a moment this year, everything from jackets to pants are heavy in the spotlight. But if you’re not ready to fully commit to the look, or the price, of these little numbers, don’t fret, there’s other options. Leather trimmed items are everywhere out there, and are a fantastic way to add a little edge to your ensemble. It’s a fabulous way to ease yourself into the leather look. While you may not wear a pair of leather pants to the office, I guarantee a little sweater with leather sleeves would look so fetch with that pencil skirt you already have hanging in your closet.
Spiced Pumpkin Layer Cake
As soon as autumn arrives all of my favorite fall cravings kick in. Cozy nights curled up in front of the fire, a steaming bowl of savory soup, and anything and everything that uses pumpkin, cinnamon or nutmeg. Especially baked goods. So in a quest to get my fall fix, I discovered this recipe for Spiced Pumpkin Layer Cake. Not only was it a complete breeze to make, the results were undeniably delicious. I see a seat in front of the fire with a slice of cake in my little paws in my immediate near future.
Pretty in Plaid

There is something oh so Canadiana about plaid, and this season, love it or hate it, it’s everywhere. Don’t fret my pets, this season’s plaid is not just your traditional flannel variety, instead it’s being presented in silks, lightweight cottons and wools. Dress it up or down, I guarantee it will be something you reach for all season long.
West Coast Weekend

I spent this past weekend in the beautiful city of Seattle, and developed a healthy dose of homesickness for the west coast while there. While I don’t miss the frizzy hair, worrying about ruining my suede flats in the rain, or the damp cold that finds it’s way deep into your bones, there is so much I do miss. Like the smell of the ocean, the urban lifestyle I lived, and most of all, the fabulous friends I made while there. I guess this means I’ll just have to amp up my visits for ‘blog research’ this fall.
