AUTUMN LEAVES

Although I love summer, my fondness for winter clothes gets the better of me, and with every hint of cold weather, I jump at the opportunity to slip into warmer clothes. The air was a little crisp this morning, hence the heavy jacket. The Western Cape often experiences two seasons in a day, with a thick coat of mist hanging over the sea and a chilly wind creeping up from behind the mountain on the Northern side. Before you know, you are removing layers and by 12h00, summer is here in full swing again. Living by the seaside, you never know which way it can turn. Autumn only arrives down here when the vineyards start turning a reddish brown, much like the colour scheme I am wearing today. My messy bun was inspired by the one and only Ms Bradshaw...

  2. What a chic outfit! Brown is a colour I don't often wear but I really want more of. It's such a warm hue. I just love how you write, Nicolene. It's so descriptive and beautiful to read.
