Don't get me wrong I love the summer. Sunshine, holidays, ice cream, Frappucinos, more ice cream, golden tans, coral lips, bubblegum pink nail polish, slinging on a dress and flip-flops and you're ready to go, but personally nothing beats a fresh, crisp winters' day and the autumn/winter wardrobe that comes with it.
Maybe it's the rich colours, the heavy textures, opaque (hold-me-in) tights, lace-up boots, the huge array of scarves, hats and gloves or maybe it's because my lumps and bumps, (the ones that are in the wrong places!) can hibernate for a few months and go completely unnoticed. Winter clothes give me that warm and comfort feeling like a baby gets when swaddled tightly for bedtime.
Thanks to Debenhams holding their A/W press day on June 1st (!!) it fed my winter addiction, that is, for the time being. A rainbow of camels, browns, turquoises, reds and of course our loyal best friend black, lined shelves and clothes rails of beautifully made designs, glossy handbags and boots galore. It was a mighty impressive collection of affordable winter deluxe from the high street.
Now all I need is to persuade my husband to summer in the Arctic!!
