Leopard: Fall's Power Print

There's strength in spots. Run through time, and you see spotty sisters like Jean Harlow, Edie Sedgwick, Anna Wintour,  and Michelle Obama sporting spots. All are strong women, like the female leopards who are the hunters of their pride. Leopard has almost become a neutral this season. Pair it with black, camel, grey, or red, and don't be afraid to play with your prints. It makes a statement however you wear it. 

HERE: 17 Spot On Styles

Do you have your costume ready? This year, we aren't invited to any Halloween parties. Boo! I guess I will just have to scare up some good fun with Mr. Shop This!  Before we all get on with our weekends, here's some links I thought  were worth sharing with you.

Speaking of Halloween: Stila Cosmetics is having a "spooky sale" on Monday. No code needed to save $10 off $30. $20 off $75 and $30 off $100 orders. What to buy? I swear by their Stay All Day Waterproof Eyeliners. The application is almost goof proof.

Jacket of the season:  The Bomber Jacket. Unless you are shopping your closet (I have several oldies), this is the jacket to get for Fall. One of the prettiest is Alice + Olivia's Felisa with blush lace.

Festive Fall Cocktails & Appetizers

There is so much to celebrate this season! Let's begin with The World Series. This is the only year in my life that I have had an interest in these games. Then of course, Halloween calls for grown up cocktails.  We have football Saturdays and Sundays and right around the corner, Thanskgiving. What are you going to serve as stylish starters? I have some recipes for you.

HERE: 22  Festive Fall Recipes

Mushroom, Butternut Squash & Gruyère Tart
A buttery tart with plenty of warm spice like nutmeg, that would look so beautiful on your kitchen island.
Food and Wine    

Satsuma And Pomegranate Campari
A little sweet, a little tart with a bit of bitter undertone. Sounds sophisticated!
Bakers Royale

Persimmons Wrapped In Smoked Ham

In peak season right now, this recipe calls for the sweet Fuji variety of persimmon. these beautiful bites couldn't be easier.
Williams Sonoma

Smokey Harvest Apple Cider Margaritas

Made with Mezcal, tequilla's smokey sibling. That pretty rim? Cinnamon sugar. I think this might be my house drink for Thanskgiving.

Half Baked Harvest

Butternut Squash and Caramelized Onion Crostini 
{ Vegan & Gluten Free }
This appetizer just screams Autumn. You'll love the creamy squash puree and the pomegranate seeds, too.
Heather Christo  

Mulled Wine Two Ways
Spiced warm cocktails. What a comfort they are in the Fall and Winter! As the author calls them, these are like a big fat "Hug in a Mug." 
How Sweet Eats 

Mini Cheese Ball Bites
Aren't these the cutest? Easy to make with dried cranberries, blue cheese, and toasted pecans. Those pretzel sticks? Genius.
Five Heart Home  

Autumn Cider Rum Spiced Cocktail
Perhaps the perfect cocktail for Fall, if you like rum. My favorite part of the recipe is the cinnamon stick and that adorable star anise.
Honey & Birch  

Walnut And Honey Baked Brie
Who doesn't love warm gooey cheese? This is a very easy, but impressive appetizer to pull together within 30 minutes.
Francois & Moi 

Spooky Orange Creamsicle Martini
Your Signature cocktail at the Halloween party! With only four ingredients, it is super easy to whip up. It's made with Whipped Cream flavored Vodka. Now that sounds interesting!

Sweet Potato Pear Soup

Slightly sweet, a little tart, and deeply soothing. Mini vessels of soup are always an elegant way to welcome your guests.
Epicurious   

Pumpkin Pie-Tini
Any cocktail that ends in "Tini" is usually a winner.  I'm loving the graham cracker rimmed glass. A tray of these with mini pumpkins are a warm welcome.
I'm Bored Let's Go 

Three ingredient Blue Cheese Appetizer
This one is said to be "idiot proof." I bet it is. My family would love it....it is made with refrigerated "grands" biscuits!

Campfire S'mores Hot Chocolate Cocktail
This cocktail is laced with whiskey and honey for a smooth and cozy drink. Yes please!

This recipe had me at Butterscotch Schnapps! Then add half and half, Baileys, cinnamon and more. Cheers!
HGTV 

Hot Skillet Caramelized Onion Dip with Bacon & Gruyere
Have you ever noticed how popular hot dips are? I have actually never made one, as they seem a bit old hat to me, This one is different.
Sweet Paul Mag 

Bourbon Spiced Pear Cider
This couldn't be easier and can be served warm or cold. Using Pear Cider puts a spin on an old classic. I read that Trader Joes has this Cider.
Heather Christo

Garlic-Orange-Rosemary Marinated Olives
I always think that a bowl of olives is a sophisticated touch on an appetizer spread. These sound fabulous!
Food52  

Salted Bourbon Caramel Milkshake
Invite Jack Daniels to your next Fall party, and serve up something unexpected and special. Call it an afternoon treat or dessert. Anytime you indulge in this treat is guaranteed a good time!
