Spring is finally on the horizon and with it, more rain. Unlike the rain we get in winter, this is a bit different. It’s somehow not as cold and hold the promise of growth and new life. It makes the spring bulbs bloom and blossoms appear on trees, and it can catch you unawares. When it’s starting to warm up, I don’t want to be wearing heaps of clothes and a heavy coat, so I invested in a light parka in case of a rainy day. View Post
Today has been one of those days when the weather can’t make up it’s mind. It was extremely sunny but very cold this morning, then it warmed up before the storm clouds rolled in. All of a sudden it was raining, hailing and sunny all at the same time! This changeable weather makes layering really important, and I prefer fabrics that are thin yet warm for this, so I don’t end up looking like I’m wearing every item of clothing I own. View Post
I love getting outfit inspiration from other people’s outfit choices – it’s what makes people watching, blog reading and Pinterest pinning so great. I’m a bit of a newbie when it comes to Pinterest (come and follow me here), but my blogging friend Jo from iCurvy has made a cool challenge to get us all inspired. View Post
As soon as my latest purchase from Yours Clothing arrived, I’ve been waiting for the weather to get warm enough (anywhere over freezing is fine!) for me to wear it. This maxi dress has been on my lust list for so long and I can’t wait for summer to arrive so I can wear it all the time (because let’s be honest, maxi dresses and temperatures below 10ºC really don’t go together). For a brief moment though, I thought I’d channel my inner witchy woman, inspired by Misty Day from American Horror Story and Stevie Nicks. View Post
In New Zealand (at least, the part that I live in), winter is not about snow – it’s about rain. Winter is cold, wet and oftentimes quite miserable – so warm clothes, umbrellas and shoes that will keep your feet dry are essential. View Post
