How do you like the January flowers? Aren't they like a bright spot of sunshine?
MrBP has his own little bit of brightness a couple of days a week: Scotch whiskey. I always wished I could drink it but no, I've never pushed past the "it tastes like gasoline" phase.
Keeping a steady eye on your finances? Me too. Rather than keep all of those bothersome receipts I am paying for everything on debit and then transcribing the weekly spending by hand into this book, using the wonder that is online banking of course.
Well I had to get Scout in here, how do you like her favourite toy? It's an elephant, named Mee-mo.
Thinking about your changing attitude towards prints? Me too. I seem to be drawn to animal prints, art-deco type designs and Liberty picks from Brora.

Speaking of Brora, can we talk about the fabulous winter sale?
I've invested in a couple of the
Cashmere Round Neck Jumpers. I love these, they are such a great basic and I find the round neck more flattering and comfortable than a v-neck.
After editing my closet I found I didn't have many wearable jumpers... I did have a few that were too small and what good were they doing me?
I also found a few of my silk dresses and blouses for spring had grown too short and ill-fitting, goodbye to them as well. The remedy? Not complete replacement of 10 things but one thing in each category seems reasonable.
I am going to give these silk pieces a try... this blouse in a "fresco blue" and the silk smocked dress (which is lined in silk as well).
It's so difficult to find a nice silk-lined frock anymore!
How have you been? Any closet edits or replacements? Anyone drinking Scotch whiskey?
I hope your Monday goes absolutely as well as it can,
