Well, I could go into a rambling introduction about why I’ve not posted in so long but that’s terribly boring so, let’s just jump back into it with a review of NIOD’s Photography Fluid.

PINS OF NOTE | AUTUMN STYLE INSPIRATION
It seems to have become some kind of super uncool thing to say you love autumn now (or Fall for those of you on the other side of the Atlantic…), with accusations thrown around that adoring this time of year makes you a pumpkin spice latte loving #basicbitch. Eff that.
I love autumn. I always have, always will. Partly because of all that ‘The Beauty of Nature’ stuff that goes on, partly because this time of year just fits in better with my own person style preferences. Cosy knits, leather boots, scarves galore. Autumn is the BEST and if that makes me a #basicbitch then so be it.
Here are some of the pins I’ve been crushing on recently that sum up my autumn style essentials…
PLAID SCARVES

Plaid, check, whatever you call it – I love a good check scarf and can’t wait to bring mine out for an airing now autumn has arrived.

In my head, I see myself as a hat wearer. In reality, not so much. This autumn is when I’m going to change that! I love this style of hat and my super talented sister in law actually designs her own line of hats so I feel like it’s time I take advantage of that!
DUFFEL COATS

There’s just something about duffel coats that I love for autumn – and not just because they make me feel about six years old! They’re cozy, cute and the hood is an added bonus for me. British weather is ridiculous and I constantly forget to carry an umbrella so a duffel coat at least gives me a chance of not ending up with completely soaked hair after autumn downpours.
What are your autumn style favourites?

FRIDAY FIVE: THINGS I LEARNT IN MY FIRST YEAR BLOGGING
This week marked a year since I started this little blog. I talked about some of the positives and negatives (mainly my own frustrations with myself) in this post when I got back into blogging after a little unplanned life-got-in-the-way hiatus.
While I still wish I could go back in time and not have that blog break, these things happen, and I’m still pretty pleased with what I’ve accomplished over the last twelve months and the main, really good thing is that this first year of blogging has taught me a few things that, no matter how many posts you might read beforehand, I just don’t think you properly appreciate until you start blogging.
