Paris FW SS2012 Favourites

Although my usual favourite, Lanvin, was a bit too gaudy-on-purpose for me this year, there were some beautiful French collections. My personal favorites for Spring 2012 this year were Chloe, Valentino and Givenchy. Honorable mentions to Chanel, Balmain and Celine of course. You can clearly tell what my preferred colour palette is for Spring....

Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes with Maple Cream Cheese Icing

Ever inspired by Cupcakes & Cashmere's food posts, I made these incredible little Pumpkin cupcakes yesterday. They use 100% pure pumpkin puree (not pie filling) which makes them taste so fresh. They're perfect for a fall day or even as an alternative to pumpkin pie. They're very easy to make, and the icing is an absolutely perfect compliment. I garnished them with pecan halves after messily frosting them and they were complete with a lovely autumn-afternoon-home-cooked feel.


The recipe is Ina Garten's and can be found here. I doubled up the recipe to make about 20 cupcakes. Enjoy!

In Between

It's still too warm for real fall layers in Toronto, so we're kind of faced with an in between season stage, where I just don't know what to wear. This little mix might just do for today.
