Outfit: Cosy Layers in Autumnal Shades

It’s been another wet and windy day here in the Yorkshire Dales and across the rest of the UK too. I spent much of the day writing and taking photographs for upcoming blog posts. Interspersed with this were trips to the supermarket and the post office along with the usual washing and housework, but all in all a most productive and enjoyable day.

I have new business cards which arrived today along with matching stickers that I use when wrapping items from my online boutique. The new winter stock is now available to buy and includes a beautiful new pendant design- a silver leaf, plus three new bracelets- two diamante wrap styles and a beautiful mink leather one with silver hearts which you may have spotted on my Instagram feed this morning.

I’d love you to pop over to my boutique and take a look at the scarves and jewellery. All UK addresses benefit from free delivery and the rest of the world can receive their parcel for just £3.95. I wrap everything individually in bright pink tissue paper so items arrive ready to present to a loved one (or to tear open and keep for oneself).

So today called for cosy layers.

My coatigan is rapidly becoming both indispensable and ubiquitous. The burgundy top is several seasons old and one which I don’t wear often, but I was reminded of when I received this handbag that I’d ordered several weeks ago, but that was temporarily out of stock. It’s from Next and I absolutely love it. The slouchy shape, generous size and combination of leather and suede in gorgeous berry shades deem it perfect to me. (I can’t see it online at the time of writing but because it was out of stock for a while it may not be quite ready yet make a re-appearance).

I got the scarf in Lisbon from Stradivarius, a Spanish clothing chain much like H&M. As always, I check carefully for wool content, the absence of which means that this scarf too can be deemed perfect.
