Winter warmers*

Hello lovelies.

The nights are drawing in and the wind is howling round my windows in the evening more often than not, so all I can think about is cosying up on the sofa with my Kindle and some comfy clothes and slippers on. I'm still undecided about which winter warmers I might buy to help me stay warm and possibly save some money on the heating bills, too.

I have a yen for cosy dressing gowns to wear over my pyjamas (or even over clothes to save on heating bills) and this one looks particularly snuggly.

Pyjamas are something I long to get into after a shower or wash after my tea, and for me they have to have full length trousers and sleeves to be comfy and cosy. This set is also hooded so that's a bonus!

I haven't worn a nightie for a long time because I prefer a really long one, and I hadn't seen any really cute ones recently. Anyone who's a regular reader of my blog will know I have a love affair for all things leopard print so this nightshirt is a dream! This nightie in particular comes in sizes up to an 8X. Brilliant, or what? I love my nightwear really loose and I love knowing this option is there.

When it comes to slippers I have the same taste as I do in shoes - Mary Jane styles or ballerina flats. These ones below are probably the cutest slippers I've ever seen!

In the past I have sometimes relied on outdoor wear indoors when it gets bitingly cold. The bills are forecast to go up by about another 10% this winter, so if I'm going to look silly indoors, I may as well do it in style, eh?

I love these gloves as I could use them as fingerless gloves when I'm using the laptop (I suffer with numb hands a lot in winter) and then when I go out I could fold the flaps over to turn them into mittens.

How are you planning on keeping warm this autumn/winter?

Do you like anything you see here?

Thanks for reading.

Wants - hibernation time!

Hello lovelies!

The early dark nights and extra chill in the air are making me want to hibernate with a humongous pile of books, lots of warm clothing and lots of carbs. Here is my wintry lust list.

I love this skirt. It's £35 from Simply Be.


I need a onesie. This one looks right up my street. It's £22 from Simply Be.


I've had my eye on this cardi for a couple of months now. It's £25 from Yours.


I love those plum jeans in the photo too.

What have you got your eyes on to see you through Autumn/Winter?

I had my one and only filling replaced today. That tooth doesn't hurt, but a few teeth on the bottom row under it (where the dentist was resting his grip) does. At least the tooth was saved. Apparently the decay under the filling was quite deep and I could tell he was excavating close to the nerve as it was getting a bit ouchy. Hopefully this will do the trick and I won't need root canal! Eeeeek.

I started to read the Harry Potter books for the first time EVER today. I wanted to wait for them all to be out so I could go about it in my usual obsessive way and read them all as quickly as possible. When I mentioned to my cousin last week I wanted to read the books he kindly lent me the first 4. I've read 82 pages in a couple of hours so far this evening.


Eastenders and Holby are on tonight so that'll keep me out of mischief for a while.

I hope your week is going well so far.
