And so another week starts… hope you all had lovely weekends. Being home in the Shire made me realise that autumn is properly here. Living and working in London means that you rarely get to see Mother Nature in all her glory, so driving through the country lanes for the first time since summer, through tunnels of trees, took my breath away. It was reminiscent of fall in New England; I tried to take pictures using my iPhone whilst walking my mum’s dog, but the outcome was frankly pathetic. To give you an idea of the kind of colours and sunlight involved, take a look at the picture of the golden leaves below (as well as some other images that make me want to get all wrapped up):

With all this cosiness in mind, my outfits are starting to consist of tall boots over skinny jeans and chunky knits, with my new military-style coat thrown over the top. These are the types of looks I’ll be aiming to emulate this season:
