Autumn Treats

Do you ever have wardrobe recycling regrets? Have you ever wanted to climb into the giant mailbox of a donation bin and rescue your item?
 
This skirt was almost a giveaway regret. It was thiiiis close to being donated, but then I had a change of heart. Why would I give this away? Let me count the reasons:
 
1) It's seven years old.
2) The thing is so lightweight that the slightest wind sends it skyward (note to self: wear cute undies).
3) I hadn't worn it in over a year.
 
Why did I save it?
 
1) I have a crazy emotional connection to it because I bought it in Australia.
2) It IS cute.
3) The cardigan acts like an anchor, keeping it on my thighs where it belongs.
 
 
 

Details:
Skirt: One Teaspoon  (somewhere in Sydney, Australia, 2005)
Shirt: Kersh (Moments, Truro)
Cardigan: Dynamite (Halifax)
Belt: Forever 21 (South Portland)
Leggings: Gift
Necklace: H&M (San Francisco)
Boots: Steve Madden (Toronto)



Polka dots are my favorite manicure!


I'm linking up with longdistanceloving for another Fridays Fancies post on autumn treats. What expensive bakery did this big boy come from?



Viola.... the Superstore cupcake in Triple Chocolate. I snagged this sweetness for a mere $2. It was worth all 200 pennies and then some. I classify this as an all season treat, not just for autumn. I have yet to get a Starbucks red cup (I'll have to remedy that soon...)

What are some of your favorite fall treats?

The Oatcake Adventure

Ever stumble across a place that you're so glad you found?

You know how I love anything striped.

The White Sails Bakery  is about ten minutes from where I live, and I'll be going back soon! I saw soooooo many goodies I wanted to try. I have the craziest sweet tooth. SUGAR PIE? Gimme gimme.


Details:
Tee: Aerie (Dartmouth)
Skirt: Costa Blanca (Moncton)
Shoes: Aldo (Vancouver)
Bracelet: Old and unknown
Long Necklace: A/X Armani Exchange (NYC)
Short Necklace and Sunnies: American Eagle Outfitters (Halifax)
Earrings: Le Chateau (Halifax)

So, after drooling over the entire glass case of treats, I decided on the chocolate dipped oatcake. Yummy! It was big enough to last for three snacks!

Half eaten oatcake. On Nails: Base of Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtremewear in Mint Sorbet. Dotted with Sally Hansen Hard as Nails with Nylon in Black Night and Sally Girl in Neon Pink (I made the name up as no name on the bottle. Original, eh?
