Rainy Morning: Trench Coat & Rain Boots

This Saturday, we took full advantage of our location in downtown Austin (validate my parking-Yes please!) for an impromptu photo shoot after my doctor’s appointment. It rained really hard the whole way there but luckily it stopped right before we got out of the car. The weather was a bit cool so I paired my shorts (last seen here and here) with a sweater layered over my favorite plaid shirt (last seen here and here). Oh, and do not let me forget-thank goodness for my Hunter boots-as they have proven once again to be perfection on a rainy day. It has really been a journey to find a trench coat. My criteria was simple, the coat must not: overwhelm my body, be too pricey (#burberrylust), and must have a classic appearance. This ASOS trench really saved the day by checking every box on my search criteria. Since we just happened to be in the neighborhood, we stopped by Gourdoughs's Big. Fat. Donuts. for an epic treat! If you are ever in Austin, please take the time to try one. Their fried-to-order donuts are thick and fluffy and they are not shy about their toppings. My favorite ones are: Miss Shortcake, which has cream cheese icing with fresh cut strawberries; and Granny’s pie, which has caramel, pecan, banana, & graham cracker (check out the last photo). So imagine something that is lightly crispy outside, while remaining a bit more dense than a normal doughnut. Seriously I am not doing justice to this magical pastry work of art, so you will just have to trust me, or even better yet go get one or two for yourself ^_~ 

Hope you have a great rest of the week!
