All dressed up on a rainy bank holiday Monday, with no where dry to go. Or so we thought! After our second day planned to explore more of Oxford, was abruptly rained off, Ali and I headed back home to enjoy a warm coffee in a local cafe. En route the heavens opened forcing us to seek shelter near by. Brushing the droplets off we looked around to realise we had stumbled upon the most beautiful Arcade of shops nestled right on our doorstep, hiding an array of vintage clothing and bespoke gift shops. I can’t wait to go back!
I had been itching to wear this stunning structured skirt from one of my new favourite shopping destinations Fawn, so I certainly wasn’t about to let a little rain discourage me – queue the first appearance of tights this Autumn 2014! Such a bitter sweet moment, kissing goodbye to the heat on my skin and welcoming the fun of layering and snuggling under furry blankets. Is it so wrong that I’m already dreaming of our first Christmas tree in our new home?

Ad “Autumn bridges the gap between what’s been and what’s to come; a transitionary season that reminds us to wind down and prepare for bitter cold, darkness and festivities ahead.”
