R - Winter

For those of us here in Australia Winter is almost upon us. Sometimes the word Winter leads to thoughts of cold, wet feet and the rain making your hair frizzy. Well I'm here to give you a little reminder of the things to love about winter.

1. Fashion wise we have coats, trenches, jackets, jeans, stocking, boots, scarves, gloves, long socks, trackies and jumpers. Who doesn't enjoy snuggling up in track pants, or getting dressed up in a cute jacket and boots!
2. Hot chocolates, Chai lattes, Coffee, just hot drinks in general. They give you warm feeling in your stomach and never fail to lift the spirits on a wet miserable day.
3. Rain dates. Just go for it, run in the rain and get soaking, then go back inside and team my first two dot points together - Trackies & a hot chocolate.

So when it comes down to it, Winter is actually an awesome three months. The clothes, the food and weather too. So don't dread its arrival, prep for it. Its a great excuse to go on a little shopping excursion. I think the wardrobe staples to survive the season are : a nice jacket, stockings (countless pairs), a pair of jeans, a scarf, a big granny jumper and some boots.
