It seems I’ve turned into a bit of a jumper obsessive. Usually I don’t wear too many of them because in the office I’d usually be in top and cardigan, but now I’m working from home, and the weather’s turned…
Over the last week or so, autumn has really hit us. I’m still holding onto the no tights/socks, but we’ve had a lot of rain. And the evenings and mornings are so much darker. That means I’ve started drinking hot…
