Getting cozy in Neverland

Just back from a long trip, feel kind of confused. I have found my long-lost autumn in another land, although in daytime only. Autumn is now my favourite season to dress up. Cardigans, combat boots, sweaters are finding their ways out of the closet. However, t-shirts, floral dresses and flat shoes are still here and in good use.
I find myself kind of changeable, nothing can last long as my must-have item. I guess because of my old habit (which dies hard): make myself fed up in a short period of time by buying tons of same item. Last winter, my closet was full of cardigans with different colors and lengths. This year, i´m into short leather jackets and over-sized sweaters. So far, 3 leather jackets have found their new home in my overloaded closet :D
Just a month ago, I was still crazy over fit and flared dresses and went out everyday with a classic and girlish look. Now, only jeans, loosed T-shirts and tommy shoes could make me feel cozy. Feel like going back to school all over again. Like Peterpan, never growing up...
My hubby has arrived, safe and sound. Hope he won´t be like fish out of the water here. Or, maybe I´m worrying too much. Maybe, I´m the one who need to fit in, not him...

Early winter

It is supposed to be autumn now. Sunshine, cool wind, leaving a pink shade on your cheeks. Should be a great time for layering and getting cozy in your outfit without turning into a polar bear or dying of heat. Should be a season of exaggerated colors...
Sadly, autumn is nowhere to be seen.
Some heavy storms just passed by, leaving us behind with endless rainy days and gloomy sky. I woke up this morning, feeling like winter is just around the corner. Don´t get me wrong, i am indeed a winter-girl. I love to wrap myself up in bed, enjoy a cup of hot chocolate or milk tea while crying over a good movie. I love to feel my hands warmed up by a lover in a frozen evening. I love to see Jungfrau all over again, with my feet digging deep into the snow and my head closest to the blue sky than ever. After all, I´m a Capricorn.
But, I feel lost somehow. Just like something is stolen from me. Like going against nature. Like you skip appetizer and go straight to the main course (this comparison is kind of odd, though :D). I just don´t feel completed. When can i get my autumn back?
