Wearing my new sparkly collard top to dance the night away with my favourite girls and taking one of my closest friends to my favourite local haunts for the morning after's recovery brunch, for hot chocolates and copious amounts of food. Coating my nails in my favourite colour for the season- a dark plum shade, I chose
Recessionista from Essie's new Autumn selection and topping them with the sparkliest bottle of glitter I could find (in this case Barry M's
Pink Sapphire). It's at this time of year that I am able to dig out my favourite winter boots, and wear them in warmth, especially when visiting pretty Christchurch. Even prettier when the last of the evening light is shining down on the church. With cold weather, comes more rain and Bournemouth has had more than its fair share this month, calling for my trusty dotty unbrella and barbour. But it's not been all dull and rainy, a helping of some local fish and chips and a visit to the O2 Academy in Boscome with some of my Radio girls to see Maverick Sabre (who just for the record, was
amazing) really brightened things up despite the gloomy weather.
Visiting Christchurch with its pretty bunting on the bridge over the river and a visit from mummy B included a night away and a scrumptious full english breakfast before a day shopping in Bournemouth where I was treated to a beaut new duvet set- perfect for the winter months. Learning to DJ on my friend's decks has resulted in a new found favourite hobby. A delicious dinner on Boscombe's beach one evening led to the discovery of what I am sure is the best burger in the whole of Bournemouth and the fairy lights delicately wrapped around the restaurant only added to the experience. As October has come to an end, it has also brought the cold weather and I have (happily) been able to bring out what is, possibly the cosiest item in my wardrobe, my (faux) sheepskin aviator. Halloween has also been and I made my first attempt at baking a grave yard cake- a chocolate sponge with chocolate buttercream icing. October has been amazing, so bring on November!
