Fall Fashion Forward...a pop of orange

For many, fall means tones of rust, charcoal, mustard and chocolate brown.

For me, it's an excuse to bring in a pop of colour that might not otherwise be seen once summer ends.

Navy+orange...the perfect complimentary colours, in my opinion. I positively love wearing ballet flats in the fall, and these orange ones with a little gold detail are perfect! Add in the taupe satchel, some faded skinny jeans and you have the perfect fall outfit to go to the orchard, farmer's market or pumpkin patch!

What's your favourite pop of colour for fall?

Talk-To-Me Tuesday: {Orange and Grey} Baby Shower

This past weekend, I hosted a baby shower for a very special mama; my best friend, Andrea.

The menu was delicious, a baby shower brunch fit for a queen, complete with {virgin} mimosa's and baked brie! The decor, all handmade by me, with such a simple colour palatte and theme, it all came together beautifully!


First, the food. Guests dined on...

• Crescents with Peach Preserves
• Warm, homemade Peach Crisp
• Brown Sugar Pecan Baked Brie (to.die.for)
• Shortbread cookies
• Honey Whole Wheat homemade Rolls with butter
• Vanilla Cake Pops, shaped like Giraffe's!
  

Cake Pops handmade, and oh so delicious, from Sweet Cheeks

To drink...Mimosa's and Virgin Mimosa's (yum!), complete with super cute B...is for Baby straws





A balloon wreath in vanilla, white and red with a charcoal grey Baby sign to welcome the guests



Fresh cut hydrangeas with orange and grey striped pinwheels...some in vintage Milk Glass pitchers, others in tall, glass vases



Instead of games, we had a Design Your Own Baby Bib station...10 bibs in all, and each one crazy creative!



Guests took home Vanilla-Peach Marshmallow Pops from Kimberly's Kitchen

Today, I'm linking up this pretty, chic and elegant Baby Shower with Tip Junkie! Super fun and fresh blog, incredibly creative and beautifully written!
