woolens
i received this cardigan in the post this morning. m bought me a howies gift certificate for my birthday in march and i've been waiting to spend it ever since. at last it is autumn/winter and they have some woolens in stock. the summery, strappy, surfer girl things don't really suit a book worm. also, my legs are so pale as to be virtually glow-in-the-dark. the cardigan is super cosy, feels like something my gran might've worn during the war, i consider this to be a good thing.
what about you? have you invested in any new winter clothes?
off now to make a brew and luxuriate in the peace and quiet of o-o's midday nap.
