Fall Transition

Temps are starting to drop a bit here in New England. In a nice way. I love fall and welcome the ability to layer, roast squash, and sip hot coffee in the morning (with homemade Pumpkin Spice Coffee Cream).

I do not, however, welcome winter. Get out of here winter! So, let’s just pretend it’s fall, and winter is never coming. K?

Yellow rain jacket: Barbour (outlet sale!)
Wideleg jeans: Urban Outfitters
Bag: Brooklyn Industries (years ago)

This was worn on a cool, drizzly morning, where the air hinted at the chill to come. But, summer was still hanging on, just a little bit.

Pearl necklace: vintage
Pug necklace: Erwin Pearl

Also, this is the sight I see most mornings when leaving for work. Sad puggle says, “DON’T LEAVE ME!”

About sweetersalt

Salt = sodium = bad. Sweet = calories = bad. Well, isn't that just a bleak outlook. I firmly believe that without salt and without sweet we all just live in a world of lettuce. Plain lettuce. Fun? No. This blog is about life. Namely, my life. But, not that specific. I myself am simply not that interesting. I live an ordinary life, work an ordinary job and do ordinary things. But... life is all about experiencing that feeling you get when you really, really like something. If you don't feel a little warm in your heart when you walk into a farmer's market or try on a piece of beautiful clothing that fits you perfectly (that just so happens to be a great deal!) then you should probably keep on a' movin' from my little plot of internet. Sweeter salt is my metaphor for the good things in life, sprinkled over everything in moderation. Banana? Kinda boring. Banana smoothie - yum! White tank top? Yawn. Statement necklace layered over said tank - now we're talking! I live in Portland, Maine. I love cooking, eating out, riding my bike and approachable fashion. This blog does not chronicle my every waking moment. This is because you will probably not be entertained by the 10th day in a row that I eat the exact same salad for lunch. It does chronicle a healthy, active, fun-filled, colorful lifestyle, in Portland and beyond. It also covers dogs. Cute ones mostly.

  1. Your dog is adorable as always and you are an utter genius for that pumpkin coffee cream recipe! I’m trying that when I get home today since I have some pumpkin left over from the pumpkin spice cupcakes I made this past weekend.

  2. Ahh your dog is adorable! As is your Barbour jacket. Seriously LOVE it!

    Is it just me, or are the best rain jackets always yellow? Love it!
