Beach Shoes

I was planning on buying a new pair of sandals for the summer but haven't done so yet. For now I'm still using these scruffy old things. Not pretty, but they're very comfortable.

Skirt and Sandals

I was misled by the lovely sunshine yesterday and dressed completely inappropriately for today's weather. Was so cold I had to have the heater on under my desk all day today!

Cat Burglar

Every day this week I've come home to clothes pulled out of my cupboard. That damn black cat pries the cupboard open (it doesn't close properly) and makes a nest on one of the shelves.

I wore this top today. I think it is so pretty but it is rather irritating to wear. The sleeves always slip down my shoulders!

It was the equinox this week so we are officially into autumn now. To celebrate I bought an enormous new dressing gown - I suspect I am going to be living in it this winter.
