Summer Vibes!

-

Well, summer has truly arrived here in Brisbane, Australia!  It is currently 32 degrees celsius and I have cranked up the aircon to make it more bearable inside the house!  I just can't believe summer is here again already and that we are now in the final month of the year!  How can it possibly be December?  There are only two weeks of school left and then my son will be on school holidays for six weeks!  I can't believe he's almost finished grade two!  Since he started school, time really has flown by.  

Another sign of summer, is when our neighbour's frangipani tree flowers start to bloom. In the last couple of weeks they seem to have suddenly appeared and it's previously bare and sad looking branches are now covered in vibrant yellow and white sweet smelling flowers (see photos below).  

In this post I thought I'd share two outfits that I wore in the past week.  For the first outfit, I couldn't resist picking up a frangipani that had fallen and placing it behind my ear!  I figure that although I'm not actually on holidays, I can at least add some summery fun vibes to my look! ;)

    The frangipani is a cute touch! I was so sad when our neighbours cut down their frangipani tree - it was right near our fence and often flowers fell into our yard, but we didn't mind!

    Got the aircon blasting here too - I can't believe it is December already, although the weather certainly won't let us think it's anything other than summer, haha! I'm hoping the heatwave dies down a little soon, our aircon is not so powerful!

    Hope that you have a nice weekend ahead of you! Going to be a quiet and relaxing one here, we will be putting our Christmas tree up :)

      Thanks so much, Mica! Shame about your neighbour's frangipani tree. I also don't mind that the flowers fall in our yard! They smell so good! ;) We still haven't put up our Christmas tree yet, but we will this weekend. Hope you're having a great week! XXX

    What a good idea to include the frangipani in your blog. I like the bright colours in the outfits you have chosen also. However, as there are no photos of Amber, I'm wondering if she is inside refusing to move from under the air conditioner? Flossie xxx

    Two wonderful Summer outfits, Sasha. I have a slight preference for the first one as it features my favourite colour, green! Adding the frangipani flower is a sweet touch and makes you look quite exotic. I'm swooning over the bag you're wearing with your second outfit! Have a great weekend, Sasha xxx

Up, Up & Away!

Do you consider yourself to be adventurous?  What does it mean to you to be adventurous?  Has the meaning of adventurous changed for you as you've grown older?   The other day I was out shopping with the family and noticed a new play area for kids, with hot air balloons painted on the walls.  After a quick family game of table tennis in which I truly sucked, the images of hot air balloons got me thinking about adventures and what it means to be adventurous.   I've never been adventurous in the extreme activities kind of way, such as partaking in skydiving, bungee jumping or even hot air ballooning!  I've never been interested in the first two activities, but I would like to ride in a hot air balloon and float up, up and away into the sky! In my twenties, I was adventurous in terms of travel and exploring new places.  I moved to Japan for two years when I was twenty one and travelled all around Japan (and other parts of Asia) by myself.  I always tried ne

Colourful Crop Cardis & Midi Skirts

Our internet is in and out at the moment, so while it's in , I'm going to go for it! The outfits I'm sharing with you today are quite different on the surface, as the colour schemes are dramatically different!  The first one has lots of autumnal colours and a bit of a 1970s vibe and the second one features more summery colours with a slight nautical vibe!  When I wore these outfits recently, I never thought they were similar at all, until I was going through my blog photos and realised both outfits were made up of colourful tees, cropped cardis and midi skirts!  So in that realisation, this post was born! My favourite outfit is the first one, because I haven't worn those colours much before and I was happy pairing these items together for the first time!  I like the second outfit as well, but I do wear blue and red together quite often.  Actually, it might be a good outfit for Australia Day, which is coming up soon!

Can you believe it is almost the end of February?  I am still getting used to it being 2019, and the second month is already almost over!  This is my last week to get everything sorted out before my postgraduate studies resume again next week.  I haven't even ordered my textbooks yet!  I really need to get organised!   In the outfit I'm sharing today, I'm wearing one of my fave maxi skirts that I've had for many, many years!  I've worn it with many different coloured tops over the years, but this was the first time wearing my new burgundy coloured top.  I love the burgundy and wine colours that are around at the moment.  They're so pretty! The outfit: Top: H & M Skirt: Tree of Life Sandals: Gino Ventori Necklace: Diva I've had these beads for so many years now, but I never tire of wearing them!  They add a bit of colour and cheer to every outfit.   Bag: Marikai This bag is a new purchase.  I had been on the lo
