Autumn, my favourite season. 🤎💛🧡
A very lucky score on the charity book table this week.
I've always wanted to read this but somehow never gotten around to it, now I can once I finish the book I'm currently halfway through. Isn't Michelle Obama such a very beautiful person, in looks, intelligence and attitude.
My Summer to Winter changeover is now almost complete. My t-shirts were removed from the drawer ...
... and the jumpers and pyjamas replaced them.
Now the weather will turn hot and sunny, but this year I have left a few summer weight things out, it's not fooling me again like last year. 😄
The only drawback to doing this over the past week has been the near constant rain, so things have had to have a quick wash and dry overnight on the airer instead of on the washing line. Some of my jumpers are ten years old or maybe more, and a couple around five, but they come out at this time each year and go away again in Spring. The changeover each year feels like having a new wardrobe of clothes, but at the same time somehow it's like welcoming old friends back into the fold.
I'm not completely against new clothes, and after a completely fruitless trawl of charity shops I have added a couple more new checked shirts from good old M&S to my collection of Autumn wear this year.
I love reusing my 'old' clothes season after season, and I am completely in favour of the ban that France and a lot of Europe are bringing in on the advertising of fast fashion brands like Shein and Temu. I have never and would never buy from either company, but each to their own.
