(not that I'll change mine, I'm afraid, but I enjoy the discussion). Is it autumnal enough yet?

Saturn74 · 18/09/2008 20:37

oy! don't you start promoting any cushion-swapping, young lady!

PrincessPeaHead · 18/09/2008 20:40

it is CERTAINLY winter handbag time now.

my new beautiful fendi is in constant use.

can't help you with the cushions, I'm afraid

JackieNo · 18/09/2008 20:40

. I don't change bags or cushions for winter myself, but I like to egg other people on to do it.

I only asked because I just had an email from MArtha Stewart Living, that was suggesting 'Simple, stylish ways to ready your home for fall', including some cushion covers made from old jumpers.

It's not just bags and cushions though is it? You are supposed to pack away all your bikinis and flip flops and get out all your winter coats and woollie pullies. I think I will wait another week or so to do this.

JackieNo · 18/09/2008 20:47

Oh yes, curtains too, I think.

Well my entire wardrobe is multi-seasonal, or transitional, if you will. ie, I don't have much, and I wear it all throughout the year.

I was going to ditch my summer bag today but it turned out sunny so I didn't.

Can't be arsed to do cushions though.

squeaver · 18/09/2008 20:56

Changed to winter bag yesterday, then it got sunny today. Never mind, got some nice compliments for it is lovely.

StealthPolarBear · 18/09/2008 20:57

people have winter bags and cushions?
I usually manage to dig out scarf and gloves by March!

traceybath · 18/09/2008 21:01

Actually packed away all my summer wardrobe on tuesday.

Its winter now and wore new boots today - it was cold this morning.

JackieNo · 18/09/2008 21:57

Yes - definitely autumnal in the mornings, though it warmed up a lot later today. Hmm - maybe we need autumn bags, not just summer and winter ones...
