Last month I got a most intriguing email; it was from my friends at LOFT sharing how they were partnering with The Saturn Sisters to launch a new horoscope program.  Being that I’ve always been a lover (and believer) of astrology I couldn’t wait to see what these Saturn Sisters had to say about my sign, Taurus, and what the stars had aligned for me over the next couple months.  Good news, it seems a lot of creative new endeavors will come to light, bad news I’m still as stubborn as always.

But let’s come back to the creative endeavors and stubborn part and instead focus on how amazing LOFT’s new fall arrivals are.  I went in for my reading and horoscope tote (because you always need a good tote) and came out with what will quickly become my fall uniform.  A versatile sweater to wear with everything, a blanket skirt paired with my favorite fall staple opaque tights, and this leopard jacquard coat that’s just light enough to wear while the warm weather still holds on, but heavy enough to carry me through the colder months.  And I would be amiss not to point out the softest most amazing cardigan (pics coming soon) and the perfect turtleneck sweater vest I’ve been searching for for seasons.

So while the Saturn Sisters are telling me that I’m busier than I’ve been in months my stubborn Taurus self would like to tell refer them to my Instagram.  Tell me, what’s your sign?  Truly, MKR

I’m a huge fan of fall for SO many reasons (pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin spice candles, bonfires, tailgating…).  But one of the biggest reasons I love fall so much is the clothes!  For me, when it comes to dressing for the season, it’s all about awesome layers and great accessories.  

Speaking of layers, let’s talk about this navy leather jacket.  You know I’m a sucker for a good leather jacket, in fact, I’d call a leather jacket my number one go-to piece when colder weather blows it.  But when I saw it in navy, I just died.  Truly, I have been eyeing it since last year, I kid you not.  And now I can finally attest that yes, it’s amazing and yes, it’s SO worth the splurge.  Because just like any great leather jacket, I know I’ll have it for years to come and it will only get better with age.  Plus in this gorgeous shade of blue, it’s a unique but traditional go-to piece.  

Now that I think about it, along with the jacket, this outfit is full of so many of my go-to’s: skinny jeans, a stripe button down (I own about 20 of them) and some great runaround kicks…classic Adidas sneakers.  And for those great accessories I spoke of:  mirrored sunnies an easy crossbody bag, and a bandana.  Yes I’ve definitely jumped on the bandana train, but not the expensive bandana train because a bandana should NEVER be expensive! 

Tell me, friends: what pieces will be on repeat in your closet, come fall?  And don’t be surprised when you see pretty much everything in this post on repeat!  Truly, MKR

This time of year I bake pumpkin bread at least a dozen times.  Traditional pumpkin bread, chocolate pumpkin bread, mini pumpkin bread loaves, you name it I’ve baked it.  However, pumpkin bites not so much.  So when I spied this festive cakelet pan from Sur la Table I knew pumpkin bites had to happen.  At first I was worried that the acorn, pumpkin, leaf, and turkey shapes wouldn’t form well, but with a lot of grease in the pan they all came out perfectly on my first try.  And as if these two bite gems weren’t tasty enough on their own I topped them with a warm maple glaze and toasted pecans.  Fall in a bite my Loves, fall in a bite.  Enjoy! Truly, MKR

Ingredients
  1. ...For the Bread (you can also use a bread mix if you don't want to make it from scratch)
  2. 1 (15-16 ounce) can unsweetened pumpkin puree
  3. 4 eggs
  4. 1 cup vegetable oil
  5. 2/3 cup water
  6. 3 cups white sugar
  7. 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  8. 2 teaspoons baking soda
  9. 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  10. 1 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  11. 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  12. 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  13. 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  14. 1 teaspoon allspice
  15. ...For the Frosting
  16. 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  17. 4 tablespoons 2% milk
  18. 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  19. 1 teaspoon maple flavoring
  20. 1/2 cup toasted and chopped pecans (I suggest a much finer chop than shown)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Grease, flour and spray your autumn cakelet pan.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, eggs, oil, water and sugar until well blended.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and ginger. Stir the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture until just blended.
  5. Pour batter into the cakelet pans (1/2-3/4 the way full).
  6. Bake for about 18-20 minutes in the oven, insert toothpick to check for doneness (toothpick will come clean when full baked)
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Once removed place them on a cooling rack with a cookie sheet underneath.
  8. While the cakelets are cooling make the glaze. Whisk confectioners' sugar, milk, syrup and maple flavoring until smooth and warm in microwave for 20 seconds, (this is optional but I like my glaze just a tad warm if you plan to eat the cakelets right away)
  9. Pour maple glaze over each cakelet, add nuts if desired, let icing harden (or eat immediately).
