Holding on to summer

Well, Fall has arrived. An unlike every other blogger on the planet, I’m not happy about it. I know i was kinda excited about it originally, but I’ve realised… I’m a summer girl. Maybe it’s the Aussie in me, maybe it’s the fact that summer is so darn sacred in this city, maybe it’s just the summer dresses, the denim shorts, the cute tank tops and the smell of sunscreen. I don’t know. But I am annoyed that summer is disappearing and the next six months of the year will be cold and wet. So, like the Mommy who holds tight to her child on the first day of school not wanting to let them go, I’m holding tight to summer, not ready to appreciate fall. So, my efforts have been to keep my summer wardrobe from collecting dust balls as long as i can.

  1. Yes, you should hold on the summer as long as you can! :) You have such a great summer look with your blond locks. :) You look so posh for your art exhibit though… I think you do any season well! :)
