winter solstice

These photos were taken during the winter solstice- the shortest (and coldest!) day of the year. The early afternoon sunset was so gorgeous! It just so happened this day was the one day I decided to be bold and go bare-legged, I thought I was going to get hypothermia- the things I do for fashion!
This is just a little apology for my lack of posts and neglect for replying to comments as of late. I came down with what we all thought was a nasty flu but turned out to be an even nastier case of strep throat and scarlet fever! I was taken to the emergency room last night and am on the mend- eating lots of ice cream, curling up in front of Disney Channel and online shopping. Hopefully I will muster up enough energy today to go outside and take photos! Well, a girl can dream...

I am finally adjusting to the crisp winter air! The key is layering. I have learnt how to layer everything from a summery skirt to a breezy batwing top, simply by adding a coat, tights and boots. The amount of fun I am having picking out serious winter outfits (the winter in Australia is pathetic) continues to astound me time and time again! Aside from this my days have consisted of Gingerbread and Pumpkin Spice lattes from Starbucks and reality television. I adore America.

I am off to America soon, so I thought I would share with you all my travelling wishlist! Some of these are essentials (camera, large bag, cashmere sweater) but most of these are items I couldn't afford if I won the lottery. A girl can always dream.
