Each morning I’ve gone out of the house this week, I’ve thought about turning back to get a jacket.
These chilly mornings mean only one thing…autumn is definitely starting to make an appearance here in the UK.
Here’s what I’ve been up to over the last seven days…
Out & about
It’s been a busy week of writing blog posts and magazine articles, dealing with lots of emails, plus using Twitter, Facebook and Instagram…mixed in with some visits to the gym.
And the highlight of my week was attending one day of the Advanced Wedding Flowers course at the Covent Garden Academy of Flowers in London.
I’ll be blogging about it shortly, but in the meantime, here are some Instagram snaps on my iPhone of some of the beautiful flowers at the Academy.
