 Our autumn edition is on-sale now!
Was that our summer!? Well, I needn’t have bothered turning out my summer wardrobe after all, which was stocked with redundant shorts and dust-collecting pretty dresses. Although it wasn’t a scorcher, summer was certainly jam-packed with events and this autumn is going to continue with high spirits.
So I’ll trudge out my knitted numbers and wellingtons in preparation for the colder months, as I intend to get out and about as much as possible! With plenty of brisk walks scheduled I am determined to be lung-full with crisp autumnal air. And I suppose it’s that time again to look for winter warmers for the little ones too. We’ve pulled together some of the cutest coats on the mini market, bound to look the part on an autumn jaunt!
Keep up to date with Facebook fun.
Until next month,
