It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

It's that time of a year again.  My favorite time of year actually.  No, it's not Back to School, although I do enjoy that time very, very much.  It's Fall Fashion issue time again!! I've discussed my love of fashion magazines on this blog before.  I subscribe to 10 of them.  Twice a year they trot out the big fashion issues. Nothing is as big as the Fall issues.  These suckers are thousands of pages.  Every single page is more amazing than the one before.  I love sitting on the couch and pouring through every one page by page.  I always wait until every issue has arrived before I begin.  I can't bring myself to start reading until I've got them all in a pile on my lap.  That ends up being a very heavy pile.  I can get lost for hours in the beautiful shoes, clothes, accessories and makeup.  And yes, I read every single page, ads and all.  As a cosmetics junkie I naturally spend a lot of time looking at all the makeup. But, I also love the clothes.  I can't afford any of it but I still love imagining what it would be like to afford all that wonderful stuff.  I know for sure the mail lady will be happy when they've all been delivered.  Yesterday the stack was so big she had to walk to the door to deliver it because it wouldn't all fit in the mailbox.  That's why I always make her an extra big bag of cookies at Christmas time.  I've only got 2 more to wait for before I can dive in. Until then my stack of Fall Fashion magazines will fill the void in the bed that The Knight has left this week.  It's not as good as The Knight's strong arms but they make me just as happy.
