An Ankle Boots Wishlist
This week has been a bit of a milestone when it comes to the weather. This is the week I have dug out my opaque tights, and my ankle boots have come out of hibernation. It has felt distinctly Autumnal, with that sense that Winter is definitely on the way. The mornings have been crisp, the nights have been cold, there hasn’t been that much sunshine, even during the day, and boy, those days are getting shorter and shorter. So, you may be reaching for your ankle boots, or shopping for a new pair. The great thing about the current designs in ankle boots is that they really do compliment…

(For instance, I’m making no excuses for living in my denim skirt that I got in Spring, I really love it). September was a busy month, and the weather was, on the whole, pretty good, so I was able to get some more wear out…

July Outfit Post
Today I’m looking back at the outfits I wore in July. July was a bit of a funny old month, I’d just got back from my holiday and really wanted to show off my suntan, but the weather was changeable to say the least, with warm days teamed with rain, and days that were decidedly cool for the time of year. In many ways my outfit reflects that weather, with longer sleeves on tops and colours that would be more suited to Autumn than the tropical Summer we longed for. As ever, there was a good mixture of new buys, many picked up in the sales which I think have…
