Raindrops on Fur Coats and Warm Woolen Mittens.

Autumn has arrived and brought it with all the signs of change and comfort that I'm so happy to bring home with me. As I sit here typing, my candles are lit, my very attractive sheep onesie is on and a hot chocolate isnt too far in the future for this cold, wet and windy October night!

I always love October (January-March is the period I hate the most for future reference: I dislike ice and snow after Christmas and would rather a rosy complexion from the sun than the wind!), ever since I was little its brought with it change; when I was younger that was starting new school years and making new friends and now it means a final year at university, a new job and a blossoming relationship.

 Something its always mean't to me and always will is: Mittens (preferably hanging on a string, I'm forever a 90's child), Fur coats, tartan scarfs, thick jumpers, flannel shirts, doc martens and fleecy socks. All of this can start to feel a little too old and tired until you dig out some old gems and inject your wardrobe with new finds, rather than picking out a classic fisherman knit I've started turning to bright kitsch knitted patterns and wearing mens plaid shirts that are oversized and comfier and I can team with my doc martens and knee high socks. That brown/black fur coat? I'm mixing it with a bright scarf and a beanie with a veil (Monki and asos do amazing veils or why not buy a vintage one and attach your own netting? Get creative!)

I love Autumn for clashing the old and the new, do you?

This is on my wish list!
