Yesterday I took a lovely Autumnal afternoon walk.
Outside it’s still really warm when the sun shines and really, erm, “crisp” (read “bloody freezing”) when it doesn’t. It was Sunday, so boring old jeans and T Shirt were in order.
The T Shirt is a Rainbow Brite T Shirt, which makes me happy, even though it’s pink, which doesn’t really. And it’s the original Rainbow Brite, not the evil new version which should be immediately banned. Maybe I’ll start some kind of protest.
Will you join me? Or am I, as I suspect, the only person who cares about the reinvention of a 1984 cartoon character?
Cardigans and scarves are perfect when the weather’s like it is. Small enough to be stowed in a bag when the sun shines, but warm enough to fend off the chill when it goes in again 5 minutes later. The scarf is the one I made myself. Still loving it!
I am confined to glasses at the moment as I am too disorganised to remember to renew my contact lens checks every 3 years, and I’m not very happy about it. Still, a stop off at the Garden Centre to play in the “sheds” helpes cheer me up every time.
The other important thing I did on this walk is go home with my pockets full of Conkers. Someone once told me they keep Spiders away. Since then I have made it my aim to fill my house with as many as possible. I may start wearing them as jewellery.
I do want to thank everyone who voted for me in the Independent Fashion Bloggers Dress Up! Competition. I’ll be sure to let you know if I’m a winner!

I think slutty Rainbow Brite should be banished from the universe. 1984 Rainbow Brite is pure AwesomeSauce.

Love the surrounds you were in, sorry love outfit but drawn to the reds and golds behind too. Where were you its so pretty?
I was at the World Conker Championships on sunday, a very british autumn occasion though 18 other countries descended from all over. The outfits had to be seem to be believed.
Why would you change Rainbow Bright? It was fine and perfect the way it was. :/ I refuse to watch the new one, period. (And why not bring back something like ‘Jem’? That was an awesome show too. :D)
On to something more pleasant, I looooove the fall! It’s the best time of year. I can’t wait to get out my scarves and hats and gloves. 😀

heidikins – I’m glad Rainbow Brite bought you out of the woodwork! 😀
eyeliah – I know! Why won’t they leave our childhood memories alone!
Jo Bryan – I’m right near a main road, if you can believe it!
Valerie – I have mixed feelings about Jem. My name led to much hilarity when I was at school, and of course it came with a handy song to sing at me 🙁
