That Spring Feeling

Happy Monday! It's a holiday in Australia at the moment and we've got that lovely long weekend feel. The sun is shining, the lawn mowers are going and we've been soaking up the sun on the back veranda all afternoon.

This weekend was Ollie's birthday and it was so great to spend it here with his family. We went into town and treated ourselves to a nice oysters and wine lunch overlooking the harbor, then spent the rest of the weekend with his family -- mostly eating, drinking wine and being entertained by his baby nephew. The perfect weekend, really. We also went and saw Wonder Woman, which was really good -- I so want to be her when I grow up:)

Even though it's winter in Sydney at the moment, it has the same feeling as Spring in Vancouver. The days warm up and all you need is a light dress in the sun, but the moment it clouds over, the chill comes with it.

Being from Vancouver, I'm in the spring state of mind and so I've been veering towards that style of dressing. I've been opting for flowy summer dresses, layered with a light denim jacket over-top to keep the chill off. It's been working quite well so far -- especially on days like today when the sky is clear and it almost feels like summer. Once the sun sets, it's a completely different story, but I'm desperately holding onto that summer feeling for as long as I can.
