Peppermint Candy


An open letter to the Australian East Coast Summer:

Dear Summer,

what is up with you man? Are you having some kind of identity crisis at the moment. A few days ago you were super hot. The sun was shining, the birds were singing and everyone was roasting. Now you're cold, wet and distant. You've been like this all season, hot and cold, then hot then cold.


I miss the old you. The old you was hot without being humid, it was beach weather every day. The old you was the epitome of "summer fun". Now you're drab, dank and dreary.  I hope we can return to our old agreement soon. I can't keep up with your mood swings,

Love Jen.


Something I never really used to care about before blogging was the state of the weather. I mean, I cared as far as wanting to stay warm and dry, but I never felt completely limited by bad weather. Now if it rains it's a bit of a disaster because a) the light turns to bleargh, and b) my equipment is not waterproof.



I tried to channel my inner peppermint candy in todays outfit. I'm not a huge fan of the taste of peppermint, but I love the candy appearance, and the smell (so fresh yo!) These bright colours also cheered me up. If you've been around for a while, drab weather makes me feel sad and lethargic because it zaps the warmth and colour out of the day.
