S14

Today I took the obligatory Sunday trip to the airport… errm, to buy groceries* (sadly, not to jet off anywhere exciting). Everything in Zurich is closed so, unless I feel like paying 10 quid for a bottle of milk from the shop below my flat, the only option is to head to the flughafen**. Thankfully, it’s only a short trip away. So, winter seems to have come early, it’s absolutely freezing outside and I’m likely to catch myself a cold because I’m still refusing to put on socks. Ha. Does anyone else find the transition away from summer as painful as I do? All I want to wear is this oversized waffle knit jumper. It’s so cozy. In other news, this hat seems to be superglued to my head (much to my husband’s distaste) and I like the combination of maroon, army green and navy. That’s all. Hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend.

Wearing: Banana Republic XL jumper (it’s the only size jumper that’s acceptable this time of year, I do believe), J.Crew peacoat, Zara trousers and shoes, Fjällräven backpack, and random knit hat from Tübingen.

*No, I don’t normally wear heels to buy groceries – those were just special for you.

**Impressed by my German? I’m listening to some Michel Thomas learn-a-language-at-home cds – hopefully I’ll be able to string together a sentence soon.

    Return to London, the weather here is warmer than Zurich :P Your hair seems lighter, did you dye your hair?

      Nope, I didn’t. I agree though, it looks light here. I think it’s just because it was bright. Ok, I’ll come back to London. But the weather still better be good when I get there. xx

  • Ahhh pretty girl! Love these pictures of you :) Love the combo of tapered trousers and heels. I am the same when it comes to socks, I get sick of people of constantly asking me “how are you not wearing any socks, aren’t you freezing?!”

  • You look fab but I can imagine how cold your ankles are, but the outfit looks so stylish, I don’t blame you for not wanting to wear socks. I have to say I have finally got the Uggs out!

  • wow, i love it too.. mix of navy, maroon, army green. that’s just a mood booster for me..

  • Ooh, I love this outfit! So simple but so perfect! And I love the fact that you have to go to the airport to get your groceries on sunday! Hilarious. Used to be like that here in Spain too, only a handful of places would be open, and usually just the first sunday of the month. Thank god they’ve gotten over that!

    I don’t think you need to travel that far.. At almost every slightly bigger train station (like Hauptbahnhof, Stadelhofen, Enge), there are grocery stores open on sunday!
