The clocks have officially gone back, meaning there’ll be a little less light in our lives (in the evenings, at least) for the next few months. But there doesn’t have to be less colour…

On Sunday’morning at 2am, while you were hopefully slumbering peacefully, your iPhone was turning itself backwards to 1am, signalling the end of Daylight Saving Time for 2015. The good news? One extra hour under the duvet. The bad news? It is definitely almost winter now,?whether we like it or not.

Colour-pop decorative accessories can always be relied on to lighten the mood of a home, and a vividly coloured clock like one of these may just help us all feel a little more optimistic about the turning-back of the clocks.
