Fall, Leaves, Fall*

Shorter days, crisp mornings, dewy grass and golden leaves. It's official - we're well into my favourite three, or even six months of the year. Yes, you do get the same post at around the same time each year. Look, here's last year's. Oh, and another. Navratri, Halloween, Diwali, Fireworks Night, DECEMBER, birthdays, a new year, SALES(!), all that Valentine's Day paraphernalia and then, of course, a chocolate filled Easter! 
I'm very excited about getting my Indian suits and sarees out - they mostly sit around gathering dust bar the odd appearance for a wedding or the temple. So you'll have to forgive me if I get carried away blogging and 'instagramming' my outfits and bangles and shoes and scarves and jewellery... ah, I'm starting to feel like Cinderella already!

Yes, I know...

...I've been AWOL yet again, but if the sunshine arrives when you least expect it (remember July in England last year...?!) and with no promise as to how long it might stay.. well, you just have to get out there and make the most of it really, don't you? London is glorious in the summer, beguiling in this heatwave. The river glistens, the pace of the City seems more languorous and alfresco dining, whether a rooftop BBQ or a waterside lunch, seems obligatory. 

But, I do indeed have a lot lined up to share with you so when I'm all sunned out (read fed up) and this, what appears to be a temporary phase of writer's block, evaporates into non-existence, I promise this time we'll hit the ground running. Stay tuned. Happy Summer days guys.

Whooooooooah...

...what a weekend ey?!? Warm evenings, Wimbledon and {albeit way too much] work; they definitely don't get much better than that. It is officially THAT time of year again - deep summer heat and long balmy nights filled with BBQs and mango gorge-fests. Who thought I'd ever say this - Happy Monday guys!

Well...

...in case you didn't catch it, a BIG hello to all you lovely people! How have you you all been and what what can I say other than how time just seems to fly on by?! First half of the year's all but done, dusted, brushed under the carpet and... I pretty much left y'all hanging for most of it didn't I? 
Fear not, for I am back for bigger and better things - and this time for keeps - it is summer after all and whether it's a BBQ on the beach or a picnic in the park, a holiday from heaven or a garden party to gloat about, whether it's sandcastles or sunglasses, ice-creams or iced coffees, there's something we all love about the sunshine finally being around! 
So here's hoping you've started your summers off with a bang - 'til t'morrow, xoxo
