I am grateful to the people who owned this home before us. The lady was a gardener and the raised borders were filled with a variety of plants which flower at various different times of year and give other treats. At the moment, lots of green or dead but I went out to empty the compost caddy and saw how beautiful and vivid the Nandina Domestica was looking covered in ebullient red berries.
I went out there and had a look a what was going on. So much prettiness. I was all cosily dressed and didn't need any form of coat or scarf. My friend Ellie sent me this beautiful wool jumper with a beautiful design on it as it doesn't fit her anymore. I like the fact it is quite cropped- meaning it doesn't look saggy over a skirt. Paired with my charity shopped heart skirt, leggings and brown boots (plus sneaky Tatty Devine heart lolly necklace- can you see it?)
It was a great outfit for my orchestra rehearsal on a Sunday (today) as it is usually really cold in the school hall that we rehearse in.
I've stayed snug as a bug all day- jumper, skirt, leggings and boots- a very comfortable Winter uniform!
I hope you have had a great day!

Gorgeous jumper! I found a lovely red&black woollen skirt in CS in October, and wore it with a black jumper. Then just before Christmas I was given a stunning scarlet cashmere sweater (with £80 price tag attached) I t came from someone who had bought it, but never wore it as there were two tiny holes on the front. I did some invisible darning, and have been Snug as a Bug and Bright as a Berry ever since
ReplyDeleteNandina Domestica is now on my garden wishlist, it might be just the thing for a certain corner of my garden that needs colour and gorgeous green foliage.

I love your cozy outfit. Lovely sweater and skirt combo. Your red skirt reminds me of the red berries, such a pretty outfit.
ReplyDeleteah *sigh* I wish the previous owner of my house had a been a really keen wildlife gardener, haha! Lovely outfit.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to have a garden which has colour and interest in every season. Those berries are an amazing colour. I'm also loving your outfit. That jumper is so cute, and yes, I can see the lolly necklace! xxx
ReplyDeleteSuch bright berries!
ReplyDeleteI adore your skirt.
Your colorful skirt and berries complement each other.
