Did I mention that Fall is my favourite season? Yesterday was the first official day of autumn so it seems like a good time to celebrate some of the reasons why I love this time of year.

{Never mind Sonia Rykiel, I am the Queen of Knitwear and I can’t wait to dig out those sweaters (old and new) hiding in the wardrobe and team them with my jeans, ankle boots and a long cosy scarf. Comfort dressing at its best!}

{I’m also looking forward to going for long walks, marveling at nature’s shifting colours and breathing in the crisp autumn air.}

{Autumn is the time to eat toffee apples, apple pie, apple crumble – in fact, pretty much apple anything.}

{Ideally with a cup of steaming hot chocolate with a generous dollop of whipped cream on top…}

{…Or a warming glass of mulled wine…}

{…In front of a roaring log fire…}

{…Wearing a pair of cosy sheepskin slippers}

{Let’s not forget Halloween..}

{…and, of course, Bonfire Night and amazing fireworks displays.}

And then, when autumn and all of its wonders start to draw to a close, the countdown to Christmas begins in earnest.

Happy Autumn to you all ♥
