Ann Taylor Petite Trench Jacket + Sweet & Spicy Almonds

While browsing Ann Taylor's site for their new styles, their Petite Faux Leather Trim Trench Jacket caught my eye and after ordering the 00P and trying it on, I decided to add it to my growing collection of jackets. My reasoning for this piece is that I don't own any short trenches. :)

Jacket: Ann Taylor Petite Faux Leather Trim Trench Jacket. Pants: Forever 21 (old but similar here). Shoes: Gap (old).

It fits very well throughout and the faux leather trim at the pockets give it a nice edge that I like a lot.

Here's a recipe for Sweet & Spicy Almonds that is a surprisingly really healthy and tasty snack:
