Fashion Fall Wishlist


These incredible Foxy Tights from Anthropologie



I have wanted this Classic Trench Coat from Banana Republic for the past 2-3 years. It is definitely the only one that I have seen worth the price it is. 




These boots are taunting me... I swear or maybe just my husband is for me even thinking of wearing fringe. But I'm seriously in lust over these Minnetonka 3-layer Fringe Boots 




So this past month I started watching Mad Men and I'm now in season 3. I fell in love with Joan's pen necklace and the show. This is a vintage inspired pen necklace, it also comes in different stone colors.


These new Converse Slim Low Chuck Taylors are intriguing and must be tried on before any decision could be made but I really like the idea of them.



Oh how I have loved thee necklace and have just found thee at half the price :)



Okay, so this is actually a diaper bag. Obviously the coolest diaper bag.



I heart Hello Kitty & Nerds

Lifesaver



My hot day rescue
Today's estimated high in Burlingame: 102 degrees f.
I know we didn't have a hot summer but I was accepting it plus when you work with 2 huge heat-radiating espresso machines you feel summery heat enough ;)
I was looking forward to fall when we had a slightly damp day last week now we are expecting mid- 70's next week boo!
Its just too balmy, can I get some dry heat please or some rain...

xoxo

sorry summer lovers I heart my beloved fall

Waffles!

Announcement: Today is National Waffle Day!


Waffles are slightly amazing if you didn't know. You can top them, fill them and mix stuff in their batter. They come in all shapes, sizes and thicknesses. Tasty in sweet and savory combinations. There are even healthy waffle options :)

Some of my waffle faves:
-Bacon waffles from BayWatch in San Mateo
-Fried Chicken & waffles, super delicious w/ honey on them
-Steiger Dutch waffles
-Hello Kitty waffles made w/ Kim's waffle iron
Hello Kitty Waffle Maker Iron
I might have to buy it myself

xoxo


p.s. I love waffles
