Indigo - Sam Barber & Avery Anna

I'm torn between guava juice and champagne. Depends on timing. Don't want to be feeling nauseous 😂

After trying so many disappointing bamboo socks from so many disappointing online retailers, I'm going back to cotton-rich socks from M&S, Next and John Lewis.

Who's going next? 😀
