Orange Crush

 Today I went for a lovely stroll around the Orange Circle. For Chapman students and Orange residents, this is pretty much the center of town and Orange County's antique shopping equivalent to Mecca. Being a polite young lady I asked permission before taking any photos of shops. Some shopkeepers politely declined and others were blatantly rude (I'm talking to you Laurenly) but hopefully you will find Orange just as charming as I do!

The famous Old Town fountain. Chapman University students frequently reminisce about the 'good old days' when Undie Run actually included splashing around in the historic pool. Nowadays the fountain is just a great place to sit and eat a cupcake from the Perfect Circle or sip a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks (there are two in the Circle!). 


Heavenly Hostess is one of my favorite shops. They kindly allowed me to photograph their products and I absolutely love their whole tongue in cheek homage to the Stepford Wives!

The Heavenly Hostess specializes in hand made aprons, tunics, and house dresses! They are flirty and girly and so much fun!

For the dorm room, obviously.

Cute cupcake decoration sets! I hate that having DG on our campus has made wearing anchors illegal for anyone not affiliated. I love nautical nonsense!
Don't these look cute?! My roommates and I are cupcake and baking fiends! 
What a great idea for a birthday party! If they had this set in a mermaid motif I would have walked out with it on the spot.

A cute little sitting area outside of Fresh Produce!

The Filling Station is one of the most popular breakfast spots in the Circle. Chapman students usually only eat here when parents are in town because it's a little pricey for a casual breakfast but it always seems to be full of customers.

I'm super bummed that the Perfect Circle Cupcakery didn't allow photo shoots becuase their interior is divine. Imagine if you will Tiffany blue walls, fancy scrolled cupcake artwork, and a whole homage to Audrey Hepburn! The Perfect Circle was featured on Food Network's Cupcake Wars and makes some pretty delish treats at about 3 bucks a cake.
