Dough Donuts. They're beyond.







On a recent sunny weekend afternoon, I laughed, gossiped, and ate my way through Smorgasburg (an awesome outdoor food festival thing) with my good friend Dawn. For the occasion, I broke out my breezy new Alice + Olivia top, and matched the cheerful polka-dot print with some cherry tinted lip balm. But most importantly? Since skin-tight skinnies wouldn't have stood a chance against the gooey egg-and-bacon sandwich and insanely delicious Dough donut that I managed to pack away, I also made sure to wear my favorite pair of Paige bootcuts...the ones with lots and lots of stretch. ;)

Which do I like better, the polka dots or the donuts?!? I'm kidding - the polka dots of course. By a very close margin. :)

AH those doughnuts look delicious! I've been lusting after the YSL balms but can't take the plunge to spend that much. The color looks great on you though!

I never thought to put Sally Hansen's nail effects on my toes! Too cute! And those donuts are making me hungry.
