Wanted: Spring blazers!

aa tights, shorts; thrifted tee, blazer; aldo oxfords

The color of this blazer is very autumny, I wish I could find something similar in a mint, pink or baby blue.

All I can find is grey, tan, navy and white.

I'm considering these from f21:

lavendar satin

green/creme striped cotton

Of course Topshop has a lot of cute ones out of my price range. Blegh.
Let me know if you have any ideas!

April showers bring may flowers.

Let time fly

aa top, velvet leggings, opaque socks; f21 headband; ou pocket watch & boots

Rainy outside! Doesn't mean I have to look frumpy and be grumpy! Nope! I stayed warm in my velvet leggings and took the opportunity to read a book, bake some yummy cookies and surf the fashion blogosphere. Careful, these cookies are addicting-- you've been warned!!

Currently reading The Female of the Species: Tales of Mystery and Suspense by Joyce Carol Oats.




Vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe

2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cup canned pumpkin
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon each - cinnamon & nutmeg
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
2 cups chocolate chips

Beat sugar, pumpkin, oil and vanilla.
Sift together dry ingredients. Stir into the pumpkin mixture until smooth.
Blend in chocolate chips
Drop by spoonfuls on lightly [vegetable] oiled baking sheet, and bake at 350°F for 12-15 minutes.
Serves: 5-6 dozen
Preparation time: 30 minutes

Next time I would try using half whole wheat flour and half regular.

So tasty! I ate about a dozen of them. Afraid I might have eaten them all, I brought them for my co-workers :)
