Welcome home Autumn.
I adore Autumn. Adore it. I feel at home in Autumn with its cosy knits, stews and crusty bread. Its hot alcoholic beverages (Oh, mulled wine, I can’t wait to take a sip!), its windy temperament and leafy streets. The blankets and cosy nights in, the smell of open fires and glistening candles. Oh my. I adore Autumn.
Yesterday I had my first taste…
I wore 100 denier tights, I took my winter coat to get dry cleaned, I bought some boot polish for my old faithful’s, I researched lots of tasty comfort food recipes, bought some socks to keep my toes cosy, listened to Anna Calvi and Laura Marling, watched the day draw dark at only 8pm, and wrapped myself in my wooly cardigan whilst researching books to read and films to watch. I’m feeling pretty thankful that I get to experience the best season all over again. How lucky I am.
Oh, Autumn! *does a little dance*

P.S It’s great to be back, I’m fighting fit once more and feeling very positive!

I love autumn too, soo much! I am a bit annoyed that summer (pah!) seems to be trying to poke its nose in with its heat and its sunshine – go away you had your chance and you FAILED! Can’t wait til it gets properly crisp. I’m off work ill today and this post has properly cheered me up! Hurrah for autumn!
Lisa
Oh! I hope you feel better soon Carly! Do some Autumn recipe research or craft research. Nice to feel inspired when feeling blue xx

I’ve not had the best start to Autumn this year, but the loveliness of this post really lifted my spirits. Thank you. Autumn really is the best season.

I love Autumn. Today I am enjoying fallen leaves and wearing tan boots with purple tights. It is a sunshiney day but the leaves are being blown into the halls from the green and it is lovely.
