This evening the last episode of Endeavour aired and it has been a thoroughly enjoyable experience to watch the first season's five episodes. A prequel to Inspector Morse, the series is well-written and well-acted with Shaun Evans as the young and intelligent Endeavour Morse. I'm very much looking forward to the second season.

T. was slightly annoyed with me a while ago when I kept walking around in the rain without anything to shield me from it, so I decided to find a fun umbrella that I could keep in my handbag at all times. I found the above one on Ebay at a very reasonable price and delivery was extremely quick.

Dark turquoise or petrol has been a favourite colour of mine for many years, especially when mixed with black or grey. Sometimes the colour is in fashion, sometimes it is not, but at the moment it does indeed seem to be very much in fashion. Perhaps it is time to bunker up?

The winter coat can be found at Bonprix, the suede slouch bag at Amazon, the Esprit scarf was found at Ellos, the jewellery was found at Etsy, the leather gloves were found on Ebay, the shoes from Tamaris were found at Javari and the knitted dress/sweater is an earlier buy (from H&M perhaps four or five years ago if I remember correctly).

I would love to get hold of leather gloves like the ones above in the right size... I'd better be on the lookout.
