Since Autumn seems to have comfortably settled in, I’ve decided to embrace everything about this cozy season. What do I love about Autumn, let me count the ways:
I love winter-warmer recipes, especially homemade soup like my favourite squash soup.
I love open and lit fires.
I love taking long Autumn walks.
I love the changing of the colours of the leaves from green, brown to golden.
And lastly, I love wearing chunky jumpers, who doesn’t?
I’ve never been a fashionable person. I’ve always gone for comfort and not style, especially now that I’m a mother. Who has the energy to think of outfits for the school run? Do women even do that, I wonder? If you do, well done to you! As for me, I usually grab whatever I can get my hands on. I’m lucky if I remember to even brush my hair. That’s one of the reasons why I have my hair short now – less hassle.
I do however love Autumn and Winter fashion, though I do use the word “fashion” loosely, as I mentioned, I don’t really care much about it but I love, love, love chunky jumpers. Who cares if they make you look a bit heavier, as long as they keep you cosy and warm? Here are four of my faves:
1. Face Face 2. Dorothy Perkins 3. H&M 4. Zara
Come to think of it, I don’t just love chunky jumpers, I guess you could say I love Autumn and Winter clothes. I know what you’re thinking, “I thought you didn’t care much about fashion?” I guess I do, but only in the cold seasons From lovely knits, to fluffy hats with pompoms and thick scarves, and boots! To quote L.M. Montgomery (author of the classic – Anne of Green Gables) “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” And I’m adding …chunky jumpers!
What about you?
Do you love chunky knits too?
