I usually go through phases of being in love with a certain style of fabric or clothing. For a long time it was florals, and while they will always hold a place in my heart, at the moment I am a bit addicted to paisley.
It's currently autumn here and lots of the latest styles have an air of the 1970's about them, long flowing skirts and paisley included. I love it, because even though it's cold, the styles conjure up images of hazy hot summer days and nostalgic elegance. The combination of colours in a paisley pattern means that it will match with just about any other item of clothing, and that can only be a good thing.
The intricate designs and colours hold so much fascination with me that I've even attempted to draw them. Not only that, but I actually had more paisley around my house than I first thought. Seems it's been wriggling it's way to the forefront without me even noticing.

Anyone else out there who loves paisley as much as I do? No? Oh well, all the more for me...
