new shoes

I bought these shoes two years ago (!!!) during the Black Friday sales, but somehow didn’t get around to breaking them in that winter. And then, yep, Covid happened. So last night was their Sevilla debut when I wore them out on a tapas tour. I was concerned I might get blisters so put a protective plaster on each heel. But it turned out they were snug but quite comfy. So between these and a barely used puffy jacket (also purchased two years ago) that I re-discovered in my closet I’m pretty much set up for winter wear.

sunny tuesday

It’s that time of year when we (hopefully) get enough rain throughout the winter months to see us through the long hot dry spell that is May to October in Sevilla. Trust me, drought summers here are not fun. But this makes going out even trickier (for me) at the moment as I am still limiting myself to once or twice a week and so NOW those days also have to fall on a non-rainy one. But this day was perfect. Lovely and sunny and still warm enough midday to only need a light jacket and the oranges are reaching their peak. Love Sevilla ❤

I am finally resigned to the idea that it is NO LONGER SUMMER. I’ve swapped over my wardrobe and have put the sandals away. It’ll be tights and shoes until March now! And the duvet is on the bed, which actually feels nice and cosy – also, the cats love it! Still haven’t put the heat on at home yet though, but reckon that’ll happen soon. So yeah, this is winter (we don’t really get autumn here). Some days it’s still warm enough to wear just a light jacket, but the rains have started so there’s also that. But then there are beautiful wispy cloud days like this, which I also love. Hola winter, and welcome.
