It’s that kind of day when a mood of change is floating in the air, when we finally start to give in to autumn, to its sumptuous colours like plum and burgundy, which can paint so beautifully a fall fête. An enchanting time of year these late September days, not long until we feel the crispness of fall all day long, today as well, not only in the mornings and evenings. I’m already looking forward to hot coffee, baked pumpkin, mulled wine, roasted chestnuts, dressing up the home, reading and reading some more and yes, slipping into knitwear and long-sleeved dresses (what about of a hat speaking of changes?), and maybe I’ll even add ruby, garnet, bordeaux and violet to choose from. A discreet luxury so easily attainable.

Can’t express how much I always enjoy these finest moments of Fall. Gorgeous colors you used here, especially the ruby. I’d really like to have a similar hat <3
Hope you are well Ada, I know it has been a while, but I'm happy to see your beautiful posts!

Hi, Christel. I’m so happy you’ve made time to drop by. I know what a busy time you’re having. I hope you are well too. 🙂
Such a gorgeous post, Ada. Sounds like you are ready for Autumn. 🙂 I’m loving wine colours, too. It’s almost like a craving. I’m constantly looking for my “berry love” item, but haven’t seen THE ONE yet.
Wishing you a wonderful day!

P.S. Sorry I’m a bit delayed with the parcel and commenting these days – I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather. Our boiler broke down last Friday leaving us without heating (which is bearable) and hot water (total nightmare, especially when one has to wash a very muddy cocker spaniel), so on top of this “delightful” experience I had a bit of a cold, too. But don’t worry, all better now, boiler’s fixed and I’ll sort out your gift by the end of this week 100%.

Fabulous color! Loving those dresses! Enjoy the wonderful day, Kellie xx
Ada, that is gorgeous! These colours really set the perfect autumn mood.
PS. Just sent you an email and got a delivery failure notification! Do you have another email address I can use? You really want to read that email, believe me 😉
I love these rich shades of red and purple! This post makes me so excited for fall — you captured the mood of the season perfectly with your words and images.
Burgundy is my color this fall.

Oh Ada you have me so swooning in the season!!! I too am so excited to take part in all of its glory 🙂 xoxo
Oooo, i love this post. You describe the autumn months so beautifully and i just can’t stop looking at those dresses you posted. Totally made my evening.
I love that hat, just saw one in HM but could not decide upon taking it. I still think about…uhm
Ada, you picked such a beautiful palette of shades. In the last two years I’ve been wearing a lot of purple, a chic colour that I definetely recommend! I love this time of the year as well and while I’ve been reluctant to talk about my FW wish list until the summer was over, now I cannot wait to share the clothes I saw during my window shopping tours…
