Morning everyone!
Love a good baking story ollie. My dad just came round to say that the male members of the chapel are cooking (??) dinner for the women next week and my dh needed to bake an apple pie. Hmm, that'll be me then. So in fact the women are doing the baking at home, and then the men are serving it to them. Very funny.
meetupladies, I have booked Hix at Selfridges for 1.45pm (I think that suits you fleecy, doesn't it?). I'll message you with my booking name.
I have had the most productive morning trying on my new clothes, seeing what stays and what goes, rescuing the Boden cardicoat from ebay, (I was getting rid because it's too big, but somehow, with the Jigsaw breton from summer, over black leggings, and with heeled boots, the proportions are right again).
I love my new woolen dresses, the Boden roll neck merino, the laura ashley zebra, and the Autograph grape which I can't find to link to. I bought chunky grey tights yesterday from M&S, which go with two of them. Black leggings are great with the zebra. Too short for opaques.
Everything topped off with my grey cashmere beret. I hope I have the nerve to wear it out and about. I think it suits me! May have to post a photo and you can all judge!
And then I seem to have talked myself out of needing a knee length coat. The above go with the Cameron somehow, especially when I leave it open, but belted iyswim. And also I have a puffer jacket, not too puffer, and fitted and black from Hobbs 6 years ago, and that goes with them too.
So I need no new clothes. Nothing else for Autum/Winter. Honest guv.
