Hard to believe it's December! [Fuchsia "R.A.F.", taken today]
We're having a lovely laid-back weekend - the first in ages where we haven't had some social event or other - just pottering around the house and garden.
To complement the mood, how about another wallow in the cavortings of impossibly glamorous people doing exotic things, courtesy of the faboo Soft Tempo Lounge? That'll do nicely.
Fab - but banjos? At a fashion show?!

Glorious fuchsia! We never had those in any of our gardens.
ReplyDeleteWe wouldn't be without them! Spain's climate is probably not right for them, however... Jx
DeleteDarling Jon,
ReplyDeleteLoved the Soft Tempo Lounge, banjos and all. It did, as you say, contribute wonderfully to a laid-back Sunday. And, the Southern Belles were such fun and altogether more natural than today's pencil-thin mannequins. And, so reassuring to know that the classic bob can stand the test of time:):) Several decades and counting....at least for one of us.
Some styles never go out of fashion! Jx
DeleteFuschias in London NOW??? Blimey, when I lived in London my fuschias had to be on the "small side" so I could bring them indoors for winter...so, end of October
ReplyDeleteThat is a glorious one you have!
I'm surprised you brought them in that early! In a quarter of a century living in London, in my experience there's rarely been much more than a nip of frost (which we have had) before the turn of the year. Come January and February, however, we generally don't have a single leaf, let alone a flower on any fuchsia or salvia once the frosts hit in earnest (we had -5C last January) - and then it's a waiting game until Spring to find out what's survived and what needs to be replaced... Jx
DeleteFuchsias in December?!?!?!?! What a treat!
ReplyDeleteIt's a joy!! Jx
DeleteI think fuchsia's are some of the most beautiful flowers in the world.
ReplyDeleteWe do too - we have 57 different varieties of them! Jx
DeleteIt was very pleasant just pottering around in the garden yesterday and Soft Tempo Lounge is always a lovely way to start a Monday morning.
ReplyDeleteLovely at any time... Jx
