I suppose now that it's November it's officially not "too early" as everyone likes to proclaim mid July when Christmas things start appearing...

I'm a bit braid obsessed at the moment (please excuse the tired eyes in the photo below...)

Just to clarify "meggings" for those who are lucky enough not to have encountered them...see here

I'm still afraid to count how many striped tops I actually own for fear of embarrassment.  Still, the domination of stripes on the catwalk over the past month has made it a little easier!

Giles, Massimo Rebecchi, Dior, Jonathan Saunders

These are the stripes I'm favouring at the moment...

Cardigan : Girl, by Band of Outsiders

Earrings : Uncommonly Beautiful

Ankle Boots : Swear

Firstly, I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who left a comment on my last post.  It meant a lot to me reading them all, a little blog medicine perhaps.

Well some of my results are in...a brief outline is that I have permanent nerve damage throughout my digestive system.  Who knows how that happened but hey ho, what's done is done.  Now I'm going through another set of tests to find out what caused it.

So in the meantime, I'm still working (albeit a little slower) and taking time out for me.  I think I might try my hand at baking (not that I can actually eat any of what I would be making right now) but it seems pretty therapeutic!
