It’s that time of year when I’m actually excited about knitwear. I have gone through my Winter wardrobe, debobbled my jumpers and mentally made a note of what goes with what and any new bits/replacements I might want this season. Stripes are big this season (when are they not though?) and last year I practically … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit ’21
Knitwear is an absolute essential in my wardrobe as I feel the cold so. I am still a terrible jumper hoarder and have failed to get them all out of storage to see what I have, which is always a mistake. When buying knitwear I do tend to just buy what I love, when really … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit 2020
This Autumn is certainly unusual on the fashion-front. The pandemic and working from home has certainly had an influence on what we buy (if we buy) and the fashion industry seems to have responded to this with an emphasis on loungewear and more easy to wear/practical pieces. I for one, am certainly going out a … Continue reading Autumn Fashion Updates
It would seem that we have had the final hurrah of Summer, so it's time to put those amazing Summer dresses away (unless they can be paired with a knit and ankle boots) and reach for the warmer items at the back of the closet (or bunged in another room, as is in my case!). … Continue reading Autumn Fashion Staples

I know some people really struggle with trans-seasonal dressing and wearing multiple layers but with a bit of fore-thought it can be fairly easy. The key for me is not to over-think it … Continue reading Trans-Seasonal Dressing

Finally, some great colours and textures at all price points (tap image for link): Under £150 There's no excuse to be swathed in black and grey all Winter when there is such a great … Continue reading The Knitwear Edit 2017
I thought I'd share what's on my wishlist for this Autumn/Winter.Writing these posts has made me realise what an obsession with footwear and accessories I have! There is always something to drool over. (I'll do a separate post on knitwear as there are so many to choose from at this time of year.) Click on … Continue reading Autumn/Winter Wishlist
This season and next (have you seen the Spring/Summer '18 runways?) are all about colour. Obviously being a complete colour enthusiast, this makes me very happy indeed. Particularly at this time of year when everyone tends to reach for their fail-safe uniform of black, dark blue and grey, time after time (hubby take note). Surely Autumn and … Continue reading Autumn Colours
It's once again that time of year that has me reaching for the rich jewel-tones of Autumn and hankering after anything lavishly textured and warm. As much as I annoyingly complain of the cold/wind/rain (a typical Brit) I do love Autumn and the prospect of wearing all those deep reds/burgundies/greens gets me excited year after year. … Continue reading New Wardrobe Additions
