Autumn dresses

At school we were taught that every season is three months in duration. If there’s any truth in such an idea then by Sunday it will be winter. But I’m not quite ready to let go of autumn just yet, especially as I’ve recently found myself surrounded by dresses that epitomize the golden tones of autumnal trees and their cascading leaves. I just wish that October had some holiday or momentous occasion at which any of these three beautiful dresses could be worn.

Snooze

In September I stayed in a small Brighton boutique hotel for a feature. Snooze, in Kemp Town, is a small B&B decorated in a style that I can only describe as retro chintz. If you're ever in Brighton it's worth at least one night. I took a few photos and completely forgot about them until today.

Hello all

I've been away for a long time. I moved to Brighton at the start of September and have had sporadic internet ever since. That's all changed now and I'm closing the shutters in readiness for a cosy winter spent curled up with my laptop. Posts are planned, I promise.
