Autumn Check

Scarf, Cardigan and Hat - All Aubin and Wills, Grey Sweater - Topshop, 
White LS Tee - Primark, Black Skirt - Matalan, 
Thick 100 Denier Tights,  M&S, Boots - Next

I love it when the weather starts to turn meaning that it's time for layers and scarves.  I am delighted that I just found this scarf in a pile of bits and bobs from last Christmas.  

This was one of the last items I bought from Aubin and Wills before it shut down and I fell in love with the soft Merino Wool and pale colours.

I'm never sure if yellow is a good colour for me but I was so excited when I just found this scarf again, still with it's tags on, it felt like a brand new purchase and I had to wear it today.

I very much miss Aubin and Wills and still find myself kitted out in their classic pieces.

Weekend Away....

New Favourite Drink - Whiskey and Ginger Ale

I finally made it to Scotland!  Being half Scottish I have always thought that I was missing out on a bit of my heritage have never ventured over the boarder into Scotland.

On the August Bank holiday weekend we had a very impromptu visit up to Edinburgh on the Virgin Atlantic Little Red from Heathrow.

What a fantastic weekend we had.  We just stayed in a Premier Inn out of the centre, as it was the last weekend of the Edinburgh Festival so the City was pretty busy, but it meant that we had to get the bus and explore the outskirts as well as the city centre.

We spent the whole weekend wandering, watching street performances, drinking whiskey, eating tasty food (including scrummy haggis) and doing a bit of shopping.  G experienced Joules for the first time and purchased a brand new Gillet and shirt and I fell in love with a Barbour Jacket.

Amazing weekend away and will most definitely be returning to Edinburgh as soon as possible.
