Autumn days when the grass is jewelled

     Oh, Jesus, do I love autumn. Yes, I flipping well do, and to be honest I don't see how you can't. It's my favourite time of year, apart from Christmas. I love the rain, the cold, dark evenings you spend snuggled up by the fire reading in thick woolly jumpers. I also love the colours of autumn, as you can tell by this post. Burnt oranges, mustards, green, truffle browns...
     I think the idea of autumn is so romantic as well. I'm currently listening to 'Baby, it's cold outside' on repeat (I know it's only October, please don't judge me) as I love Christmas and am so in the mood for it after our Christmas Cabaret rehearsals on Saturday.
     One of the biggest parts of sixth form has been being able to wear (almost) what I want every day. Well, slight exaggeration, there are obviously some rules, like no jeans, trainers etc. and you can't be too crazy - it has to be smart. But I'm getting into the swing of picking out an outfit every morning and feeling more and more relaxed about it as I do. I would take pictures but 7:30 really is too early to be in front of a camera. I wore a really arm jumper today and felt so cosy; it also means I'm actually making use of the millions of big coats I have, as it is sooo cold now. Even school has a silver lining!
     So here's a pick of a few of my favourite pictures from Pinterest, that I'm addicted too lately as it's so helpful for my Textiles (which I will probably do a post about soon). The pictures are to die for - I'm so in the mood to make an apple/pumpkin pie right now and just sit by the open fire whilst it rains ferociously outside...

  1. I love the pictures and what you described! It's just started to cool down where I live, so to me the autumn season has finally arrived, and I adore that. I really enjoyed this post!
