a great dress for work or play

We've been working hard at Fresh Baked Goods HQ to come up with some amazing fall dresses that are not only cute, but super versatile as well. We're calling this one our 50's Style Dress and it is adorable! It features a tie at the waist, a skirt that flares out, and pockets. Pair it with a sweater and heels and you've got a great outfit for the office. It can also be paired with boots and tights and be worn well into the those brr-worthy winter months.

We know you'll love this dress the moment you try it on!



transition that summer cami!

Now that the cool(ish) weather is finally here, we can finally start thinking about layering again! We love taking our favourite summer camis and pairing them with longer skirts and sweaters for a sophisticated fall look. The cami that Janine is wearing is by Momiji, sweater by Fresh Baked Goods and skirt by Mandala.



Layering is such a great way to get a little more wear out of your favourite summer pieces. All of our designers are bringing in new fall merchandise daily, so be sure to stop by the store soon!

Robin's Egg Blue

We love this necklace from Designs by Peeno. It features a pretty little bird and a nest with three pretty little blue eggs. This very special necklace will be sure to brighten your day!




Another necklace from Peeno that we love is the pressed flower necklace. Each necklace features a different pressed, dried flower between glass. They are one of our best sellers here at the store!

Carrying Summer Clothing into Fall

The summer heat is on! Odd Bird is not quite ready to get into Fall just yet….as she still wants to enjoy the hot & humid weather for a while more.
Check out some of Odd Bird's printed Summer attire, this time being modelled on an actual human (rather then the usual mannekin) and accessorized with pieces from the store's members.
When the economy's tight many customers want clothing that can be carried into the next season. But they are usually unsure how to do it. Its surprisingly easy to build up an outfit to wear into another season. Don't be discouraged by colour either: if you love pink & it suits you why not wear it all year round? Don't think that's its just for one season like Spring! The trick is accessorizing & layering to either pump up or tone down the outfit for the season or occasion.
So the first outfit is for wearing during the summer weather & the second outfit is layered up a little for the transition into the cooler weather as Fall approaches.

The latest Odd Bird summer offering: the Rose & Scissors T-dress! Here it is worn with a resin ring & vintage rose necklace. Isn’t that outfit adorable with those polka-dot shoes?
Here's how it can be worn for cooler weather or for a more business-casual look: Mohair shrug, tights, chunky necklace & Damask bag.
The Bunny T-dress, worn with a shell-disc necklace & resin ring....barefoot for fun-in-the-Sun time by the pool or at the beach!
Then toned down with accessories in shades of black, white & grey: Sweater shrug, argyle socks & daintier necklace. What a cute outfit for Back-to-School!
The Songbird Pocket Tunic/Babydoll dress worn with bold & bright necklace & earrings. The jewellery isn’t exactly a matching set but look how nice they compliment both each other & the print on the dress!
Who says you cant wear white after Labor Day?
Now the dress is worn over cropped pants with tall boots & a chunky chain necklace. We used a teal coloured sweater shrug here to keep the outfit bright & fun....but if you wanted to tone it down then obviously a darker shrug would be worn instead.

Summer Scarves

Scarves aren't just for cold weather...they are great for wearing while walking along breezy lakes & oceans or inside over air-conditioned buildings during the summer months too. We have some lightweight jersey cotton ones with fun prints by Odd Bird at the moment.
