Before the sun went down...
Guess who's never tried this? And no, I didn't buy it ...
Dress: Vintage. Boots: Jeffrey Campbell for LF
After work, I realized that I ran out of milk so went in to get a carton which meant of course leaving with a basket full of stuff that wasn't planned.
Even though I've been in New York for a few years now, it still hits me how there's stuff here that you just can't get in London or might not be as good e.g. pancakes!! Fat fluffy pancakes drizzled on top with syrup!? I mean who thought that up? What's your guilty pleasure? (and don't tell me it's fruit).
The dress I'm in is vintage. One of those rare occasions where I'm in a dress that's below the knee.
My new indulgence is warm melting cake...barely baked top and warm, gooey, melty, fudgey goodness underneath.
ReplyDeleteHEAVEN with vanilla ice cream.
you cant get pancakes in london ?
ReplyDeletelove the boots
It's a toss up between cheesecake and ice cream...though I've really cut down my intake...
ReplyDeleteI really like the yellow dress...good choice!
you look good in yellow! guilty pleasure: dark chocolate
ReplyDeletewanna see a girl doing tricks with Trix?

I am from Russia originally. And I was shocked at the thick pancakes. My mother would make them every Saturday, but they are more like crepes: thin and sweet. Only in America are pancakes so freaking thick!
ReplyDeletebelow the knee, still super hot!
ReplyDeleteguilty pleasures include anything found at 711, I would die w/out 24hours.
again one more pretty dress!
ReplyDeleteMy dear, only you can make shopping at the market look so fly + cool! Gotta love it!
ReplyDeleteIt's gelato and tiramisu (not together though)!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll ever look this cool in a supermarket. Maybe I should burn my sweats to keep myself from committing that crime.
I just love your blog & your style!
my guilty pleasure's B&J's strawberry cheesecake, and toast with melted cheese <3
ReplyDeletelove the colour of your dress!

lucky you... but the thick pancakes scare me - too much dough - i MUCH prefer our (posh) crepes!
carrot cake!!
ReplyDeletethis looks lovely against your skin
i want your boots!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour dress is amazing, you look so pretty in yellow!
ReplyDeleteyou look gorgeous, even in a below-the-knee dress hahaha
ReplyDeletemy guilty pleasure? I ate a lava crunch cake from domino's yesterday... so incredibly bad for me, but I almost couldn't stop myself... mmmm melting chocolate
Blog pictures in the store... where did u get that idea.
ReplyDeleteSigh. If everyone dressed like this to go to the grocery store... Sometimes, I feel a bit odd going to the store even in a dress, because everyone in my town is super casual. Then again, it IS just the grocery store. I digress.
ReplyDeleteYou look cute as always! Love the yellow.
My guilty pleasure would be just about anything made mostly with flour (Fresh Bread, muffins and, of course, pancakes! Cool post Karen:)
CUTE!!! MY GUILTY PLEASURE IS COPELANDS CITY SOCIAL STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE!!! YUMMY!!!!
ReplyDeleteu look amazing! ^^
ReplyDeletei wish my mom could take such a great pictures of me :P.
My guilty pleasure is Ferrero Rocher. I melt when I eat a hazelnut!
ReplyDeleteGuilty pleasure as of lately: ice cream sandwiches or mint cookie ice cream, my freezer typically contains one or the other.
ReplyDeleteAnd I grew up eating 'German Pancakes' from my grandma's recipe while in Guam, with just a bit of raspberry preserves. When I made them for friends in the states they were like, 'Those are crepes!' Le sigh.
Love the dress!
ReplyDeleteAnd the photography!
seems like the perfect outfit for grocery shopping. the dress brings out the feminity in you and really suits the whole "grocery-buying" image
ReplyDeleteI'm with Jacquie. The icecream over here is the exact same price in pounds as it is in dollars... you'd think I'd eat less of it wouldn't you!
ReplyDeleteGuilty pleasure... sex in public (only joking) melted / toasted cheese on anything. I love the stuff! I don't feel guilty eating everything else...sweets etc.
oh, and I love your loose hair in these pics xxx
ReplyDeleteso demure, love it!
ReplyDeleteKaren you are too cute! Love the vintage dress, you make it look very modern! My guilty pleasure is probably white chocolate bread pudding!!! MMMMM!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the boots, love love LOVE!
ReplyDeleteget outta town, you must try hot pockets! and that dress looks absolutely darling on you.
ReplyDeleteValerie - is it THAT good?
ReplyDeleteLady Bug!! - the silent watcher ; )) Next time your hear you need to make a bee line for Hagen Daz...oh and i KNOW you weren't joking... ; )
Jacquie - DEFINITELY stuff your face if you come to the US!!!
Damsels - yes but they are very thin. Not fat and fluffy like the ones here.
The Barely Tatoo'd Artist - hmmm cheeeeesecake..(Homer voice). Ever tried Juniors?
InnyVinney - Yep. You almost nailed my #1 fave decadance. And the cake MUST be warm.
Marie Louise - the boyfriend likes carrot cake. I never got into that one :-/
Thanks everyone for the comments. I do love this vintage dress. Feels a bit Audrey Hepburn.
that's stunning!
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting a similar pair of booties to arrive! I can't see the moment!!!
so fun to see you doing mundane things like grocery shopping, yet still looking fabulous. that's how you gotta do it. =)
ReplyDeletebe glad you didn't buy the hot pockets...yuck, haha. pancakes on the other hand, a definite yes! mounds of butter-y and syrup-y goodness.
my weakness is...italian food! huge plates of spaghetti, alfredo pasta, and good old thin crust cheese pizza. very bad for the hips. haha.
Caylee - yea thats definitely hip expanding on me but its got to be done every now and then!
