AUTUMN...

We had some good warm days this summer! I love summer, love summer clothes, love having drinks outside, love day trips to the cold British seaside ... just love everything about the summer! But lets just be honest here, because for next……. coming up months it will be Grey, Cold, Dark and MISERABLE!!
I’m aware that’s its winter big time….but it’s still letter AJ so I might as well explore on this subject a bitJ and I’m expecting spring to come early this year!!!!! Magic magic…..i really need you nowJ
As we cannot just go into deep sleep and wake up with cherry-blossom…….we might find some good things about this gray miserable weather and enjoy it!
*Alora darkness…my winter friend!!! One Sunday we get one extra hour in bed and next six months we don’t have to feel guilty about sleeping longer…slipping into comfy leggings …fluffy big home type of uggs ( that’s how I call them )..being lazy all Sunday, or for that matter pretty much every night! Spending nights watching cheesy DVD's and all the comfort food….yes comfort food! Not exactly healthy or posh, nor sophisticated like French food…but  one thing for sure- it will not leave you hungry!!! And only the darkness is good enough excuse not to leave sofa!!…..we do not have that excuse all year.
* Shopping, because ... let’s face it!!!!  New coat new  boots…… matching scarf, gloves, hat… layering because you never know if the office will be really warm or freezing cold. Somehow they never seem to get it just about right..it's the time before Xmas for presents ……and then after Xmas sales………ok that’s winter already but anyway!!!
* Candles….time to light up candles (good excuse to buy them). Last weekend I spend few hours in TK MAXX picking candles for all sort of moods……"good night" mood.."fresh linen" mood…."bath time" mood…(that’s a whole different story here…..you might need bath oils,to “protect your skin in the winter” ).
* Xfactor, because all of Britain is watching it throughout the whole autumn! Some are just brave to say yes. I love it! Some pretend they don’t….but please…..missing out on sexy Dermot O'Leary…..Danniis and Cheryl’s outfits….or was it even more about hairstyle this year…….little comments between Simon and the “turtle”………..Wagner….:( all the drama queens this year…….Katie’s roots until she decided to change her hair completely…..and Matt….:) that was the best part!
* And of course, lets not forget about the most important and the most talkative subject in every Brit's life (u pick it up pretty fast even if your are not one).. the weather!! We all just love complaining about it so much (secretly of course ;)) that we wouldn’t know how to live without complaining about  the weather!
