The weather is getting colder and I’ve found myself drawn back to black. This does not make me hugely happy because I am usually a riot of colour. I prefer it. Especially when the weather is warm. It makes me happy. And there are other good reasons for not wearing black it would seem. I learnt this today on my friend Vanessa Raphaelly’s blog and thought I should share it with you immediately.

Oh look. It’s a black sack. In summer, I wear NO BLACK AT ALL. I quite got into black last winter but if I’m not wearing colour in summer I feel many shades of wrong. I’ve always loved colour. Even when I worked near the fashion world. Are you a black person when it comes to fashion? Is it your default or do you find it depressing? Aging?
