Sugar Bakeshop in Charleston.

When in Charleston, I almost always pop into Sugar Bakeshop for a lemon cupcake. They are just so good, and I’m not even a sweets person.. if I’m going to indulge it’s usually in cheese (or fake cheese, HA) rather than sweets.. (The lime is very good too.) But when it comes to Sugar, I can’t say no. I think it’s because their cupcakes are extra moist and gooey because they put a little frosting inside of the cupcake too! They are made in small batches and just. so. good. Yum… I’m getting hungry just writing this!

When in Hampden, Stacy talked me into buying this dress and I love it. It’s a little kooky (there are cats on it!) and crazy but I love that! Vivetta is a Milan based designer… all of the pieces are whimsical and super fun, but also very feminine. I’m in love. The only other store that seems to carry it is Selfridge’s (my favorite place to shop when in London!)

Happy Halloween! I am not doing anything tonight (at least I think, you never know!) as I already had more than my fair share of Halloween fun on Friday night. I have another trip coming up next week (to Miami, for work!) so I am spending this week really buckling down and trying to get as ahead on work as possible!
