It's Beanie Season!

It is officially the Season of Beanies, by which of course I mean we have entered Autumn/Winter. It is now more than acceptable to wrap up in snug knitted jumpers, scarves and woolly hats. 'Tis the season to be cozy! I am forever wearing beanies and woolly hats and seem to have an ever growing collection. I can't seem to rein myself in when it comes to purchasing knitwear! This is part of the reason I love Autumn so much: I get to wear all of the warm clothes I've been saving up all year...

For me, Autumn is the greatest season; the slight chill to the air, the drizzle and obviously the beautiful leaves. But that is not all that Autumn has to offer, oh no! With the colder days and darker nights Autumn brings with it the countdown to Christmas. Some people love the countdown and some loath it, I love Christmas and everything related to it. You just can't beat the excitement, the anticipation and the occasional moment fretting about the gifts you should get for other people.

You know it's really Christmas time when you start to see festive adverts on the telly, the Coca-Cola Christmas advert in particular! Others are finally beginning to join me in being excited for the festive celebrations, however I have been counting the sleeps until Santa since the middle of October (I apologise, I got a bit carried away this year!). 

If you are one of the slightly more normal people who don't get too excited until much later in the year, then I'm very sorry; but I do hope that you start to get into the festive spirit soon...

So, what is your favourite part about the Autumn/Winter time? Are you excited for Christmas yet?
