Happy Halloween: Code Orange

Hello, My Pretties! Just in case, you are having any trouble getting into the mood of the holiday, I present to you the color of the day - orange. I don't wear much orange, but I sure do love getting gifts in big (or little) orange gift boxes from Hermes! Actually it is a bright and happy hue that can really liven up a look, a space, and even your face. Here's hoping that you have a happy and haute Halloween.

{ Via: Neiman Marcus }

 One of my favorite Fall accessories is a good pair of tights. Recently I discovered that no one I knew wore tights or hosiery under pants. Really? I think that maybe they have not discovered Wolford tights. They are so comfortable and durable, that I have actually slept in them before. The covered leg has been in and out over the years. This year it is in a big and bold way, and I couldn't be happier.  Think, fishnets, lace, and bright hues. Scroll down to get a leg up on this chic and covered Fall trend.

Satin Opaques
These are my favorite of all! Super comfy. They look dressy on the leg. Opaque eye-catcher: "Shimmering and opaque with a touch of glamour and luxury, enhanced with the finest satin feel. Thanks to a special plating technology, the material is more durable. The soft knitted waistband ensures a perfect fit." P.S. the color shown is "Hawthorn." I wear the black

Foodie Friday: How Do You Like Those Candy Apples?

{ Via: Party City }

As a child, there was one house on our block that actually gave out "Candy Apples" as their Halloween treats. I also remember that my Mom would not let us eat them. It was very disappointing, but I get it! Ever since childhood, when I think of Halloween, I think of apples covered with gooey caramel, nuts and  chocolate. Any way you slice them, these apples are delicious! Won't you join me in making some this weekend? 

HERE: 16 Creative Candy Apple Recipes

Bloody Caramel Apples

This recipe is different in a big way. With the combination of sugar and sweetened condensed milk, a silky caramel coating is created. It stays on the apples and is deliciously ‘bloody’.
Foodie Crush

Salted Caramel Apple Snickers Cake

An over the top take on cake AND caramel apples! Could anything be more decadent?
Half Baked Harvest

Peanut Butter Caramel Apples
My ultimate treat! The combination of crisp apples, chewy caramel, rich chocolate, and crunchy nuts is delicious and will suit any fall party or get-together.
The Spruce

PS. I found the treat sticks at Amazon

Salted Vanilla Caramel Apples
These apples were boiled first to dissolve the wax. It's a step not everyone takes. I have done it with success, but didn't love how it made the naked apples look. 
Heather Christo

Apple Pie Caramel Apple

Said to taste like an Apple Pie on a stick. Aren't they just so cute and clever?
The Girl Who Ate Everything

Chocolate Apple Treats
With a combination of dried fruit, nuts, Peanut Butter, Chocolate or Butterscotch Chips, White Chocolate and assorted jimmies, these apples take the cake!
Food52 

Triple Dipped S'Mores Apples

Do these not look perfect? Marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers meet their match in a tart Granny Smith. Though the recipe does not state what type of sticks were used, I think I found them at Amazon. The recipe can be found at
Country Living 

Gourmet Caramel Apples
This treat calls for Granny Smith Apples, creating a yummy combination of sweet and sour. Grab a friend, this recipe turns out better when you have more than one set of hands.
Garnished and Glazed 

Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Stuffed Caramel Apples
These are happening this weekend at my home! Who even knew that stuffing raw apples were even a thing?
How Sweet Eats

S'mores Caramel Apples
This picture is worth one thousand words! Those marshmallows are actually toasted with a chef's torch.

Savoring Time In The Kitchen

How To Make Caramel Apple Shots
Oh people love getting together and doing their shots, don't they?  It's fun, but few are as Fall as these. Of course, the shots are made with real apples and something called butterscotch schnapps. Enough said.
Food Republic

Sea Salt Bourbon Caramel Apples With Spiderweb Chocolate
You will want to make more of the caramel sauce to reserve for drizzling over bowls of ice cream! Having homemade caramel sauce on hand is always a good idea.
Cooking With Cocktail Rings

Chocolate Turtle Apple Slices
"Have you ever had a candy apple but wished there was a little more “candy” in each bite? Problem solved! These candy apples are covered with all of the ingredients in your favorite candy – chocolate turtles." If you are intimidated by making a Caramel Apple, these sweet slices may just be the recipe for you.
