Black, White and Red All Over with a Panama Hat

Did someone say cheese?!

Oh, look a falcon (not really). 
Black and white because the grass was reflecting green
 on my neck and it looked really weird. :) 


The title should probably read black, pale and red all over. Remember that joke about a sunburnt zebra, yeah that is where I got the title. I love me some corny jokes and apparently cheesy faces and poses!
Anyhoo, not completely sold on the hat still. Thoughts?

Orange Creamsicle Dress


Walking the plank. 
 My recent "postless" span lasted much longer than expected, but I hadn't even planned to be "postless" to begin with. I recently woke up early one morning and made two recipes, but neither were up to par. I had been counting on at least one of those as being a success and I was going to post it, but they were kind of gross. I tried to make a honey wheat bread that I had had a restaurant and I also tried to make honey cookies because I have this huge jar of honey. Well I used up a lot of honey, but it was all for naught. In this time I also made banana cupcakes, but never got around to frosting and photographing them. There were also some really dry cookies that had good flavor, they just need a little work, then I will be sharing those! Also in this time I make 150 something sugar cookies! And worked with royal icing! Needless to say its not like I wasn't in the kitchen, in fact I was in the kitchen a lot! Anyhoo, enough excuses and on with the outfit post.

Obsessed with this bag. 
I received positive feedback on my last outfit so I thought I would do it again. It just took me a little while to put together a presentable outfit and photograph it! 
While maxi dresses have been a big summer trend the past few years, I have not gone near them until this year! I have no idea why because they are so comfy and often look effortless! Now these photos may not showcase either of those attributes, but the lighting wasn't very helpful! Oh, and please excuse my lion king mane hair, humidity hates me! 

Can someone please teach me how to pose for fashion blogging photos?
I need A LOT of help. 
Dress by Calvin Klein from Marshalls
Shoes from Target 

I'll be back soon with a recipe! Thank you for your patience and please enjoy the crappy elevator music while you wait!

Bakelette Attempts Fashion


If you are anything like me, you probably read all sorts of blogs, fashion, travel and food just to name a few. While I love blogging about baking, I sometimes want to throw in a little fashion to spice it up! On Easter I did just that! 
We are all friends here right? So, there is to be no judging of my terrible tri-pod plus timer photos...mmkay? Well, maybe judge a little because I would like some feedback! :)
 It took me months to get somewhat decent food photos, so don't expect any amazing fashion photos for like another 10 years.
This is what I wore for Easter minus the blazer I threw on for the evening! 

 Here goes!


Shirt from Valerie Bertinelli via TJ Maxx
Shoes from Anne Klein (last year)
 Necklace from a local boutique
Purse from Marshalls (last year) 

To me this was total fashion blogger pose...minus the overexposure? You agree?
Probably Not 
Would you like to see more fashion posts in the future or should I stay in the kitchen next time? 
Or was this a fashion fail?
