Recently here in the UK it has finally been beginning to feel like autumn. There's a distinct chill in the air, rough winds and only the occasional spot of warm sunshine.
I don't really mind that much because for me, although I love getting a tan and wearing pretty summer dresses my heart truly belongs to autumn. I love fireworks night, the build up to my birthday, pangs of excitement for Christmas and new year - it's just a time filled with excitement!
Autumn is a time for long walks, hot chocolate and snuggling up by the fire. The trees are dripping with golden tones before the leaves fall causing each step to produce a satisfying crunch.
Beautiful.
But more than any of the above, it's the arrival of autumn/winter lines in the stores and this year I've been particularly impressed with none other than underwear supplier to the whole of the United Kingdom (am I right?)… Marks and Spencer!

I know what you’re going to say:
“This is hardly ground breaking fashion, B”
and I agree. But, two points –
a) I think winter is all about classic style. Summer is the time when we experiment with new fashions, but winter is cold and so we need to be warm and practical, and who does warm and practical better than Marks and Sparks, and
b) isn't one of the reasons we all love M&S that we can always rely on it for classic timeless looks?
However, that would be boring. And to their credit Marks and Spencer do have on trend styles!
So what do you think? I don't know if it's just because I was raised on Marks and Spencer but I think that they are a very trust worthy brand and that even their 'fashionable' clothes carry from one year to the next!
Are you convinced?
