Rolling Into Autumn

The days are rolling by so quickly, one into another.

Summer has rolled into Autumn and with it that definite nip in the air in the evenings - 
the days though remaining warm enough to bare legs.

You look up and omg - It's October in a few days.....How the hell did that happen?? 
The realisation of this hit as I staggered to the bathroom this morning and looked out of the window to be met by this - beautiful isn't it?
Thoughts of 'Autumnising' my bedroom hit, so that's exactly what I did!
I dug out my very old beautifully worn grey velvet throw for the bed.
 Strung my Moroccan Fairylights around my wardrobe, these are absolutely gorgeous and cast such pretty shadows on the walls as I drift to sleep, cosy under my quilt ;-)

How are you starting to cosy up your home?

52 Weeks of Happy (1/52)

I have discovered a few new blogs recently which I shall add to my side bar sooooooon!

One in particular, Jen at Little Birdie started this blog hop a year ago....
always late to the party - that's me haha! 
She has just posted her 52/52 'Weeks of Happy'.

I so wish I had seen this, I think it is such a marvellous idea. 
Looking back on your week, being in the moment (albeit with a camera!) 
and capturing the little moments that make you happy or smile.

So I am going to curate my four happy moments and simple pleasures 
to share here each week.


  • Reading 'In Style' for £2.00 with the gorgeous Drew Barrymore on the cover, whilst enjoying my favourite drink :-) 
  • Putting my sumptuously warm velvet throw on the bed ready for colder nights.
  • My Daughter leaping off the couch announcing she felt like baking and producing this lovely moist marble cake - YUM!
  • Rob Ryan tape for brightening up plain wrapping paper

What simple pleasures have made you smile this week?
