Golden Hour




Wearing: Topshop coat (ebay); topshop shoe; thrifted jumper and skirt. 

For some reason, every time I write a post it tends to focus on the weather. Maybe that's because it's related to my studies. Maybe it's because i'm British. Who knows. Anyway, it's been pretty dang cold in my opinion. I get itchy feet when I stay inside too long and have been forcing myself to go on at least short walks each day. Snuggling up with coco and books is lovely but I often feel like I'll go crazy if I don't get fresh air. The other day we escaped the buzz a little by walking up to the canal just before sunset. This coat has lasted me well through this winter and I've worn it so much that it's probably due a trip to the dry cleaners. As much as I like wrapping up all snug, in  fluffy jumpers and long socks, I'm so ready for spring. I can't wait to bare my legs again, wear less than four layers and go on long walks without it getting dark so early. I know it's only January but is anyone else musing about spring already?

 Well, well. 2015. It sounds so very futuristic but where are the hover boards and space tours? Last year was probably one of my best. Hong Kong was definitely a highlight and I finally got to go to a wedding! I've got feeling 2015 is going to be a good one too. It's a multiple of five and they always tend to be good years. January alone is already set to be a busy month. For now, i'm going to enjoy going the calm and stretch out the period of relaxation for as long as possible. The agenda for the next week is some sewing, crocheting and more long strolls like this one to Guy's Cliffe. Hopefully the crisp air will help me to clear my head and form some realistic resolutions for once.
Have a great first day of 2015!
