I always wanted to be one of those people that loved and could enjoy winter though. The cold is so bone chillingly uncomfortable to me...but I will say, there's nothing I love more than a good pair of tights. So as the warm weather comes, I am pretty sad to tuck them away.Marisa Noellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06783735879605619538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793421035373192675.post-59903967085132064832012-03-26T03:51:30.113+01:002012-03-26T03:51:30.113+01:00I'm with you all the way.

My hair works better in winter. My skin looks better in winter. I hate shiny faces, sweaty bodies & frizzy hair that comes with summer. I love dark gloomy days, the summer sun seems to piss me off! A cold, dark & even rainy day is my idea of paradise! Kind of weird but I love it! Xx Looking forward to seeing you in some of those frocks, & I do love that tan bag as well.

LOTS of shade and yummy things to drink. I'm an iced tea girl myself. Downside to summer over here in NZ = flies and mosquitoes, chaffing and sunburn.. and I am NOT a fan of being very very hot at all. My fav seasons are Autumn and Spring. Love the cold/cool nights and mornings and the pleasant sun shiney days, with mild temperatures. Not moaning though.. nothing lasts forever - and you've got to have the bits you don't like in order to totally love the bits you do!

All the seasons in NZ are pretty good,really.It rarely gets too hot,and rarely gets too cold! I don't like the depths of Winter,though,as I'm not fond of wearing woolly hats!<br />Now,I rather like those frocks and skirts and am squeeeing a little over that tooled leather handbag,so I fully expect to see you prancing around with those,just a bit,for me!!!<br />The best thing about Summer is gin and tonic!<br />XXXHelgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06746988714522496958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793421035373192675.post-12026863755000837592012-03-25T15:35:57.084+01:002012-03-25T15:35:57.084+01:00I'm never up early enough for car boot sales a...I'm never up early enough for car boot sales and I don't have a garden:( otherwise I might just agree with you on those 2 aspects!! xxSarah Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17530253746802487595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793421035373192675.post-87518291992064190122012-03-25T15:34:34.523+01:002012-03-25T15:34:34.523+01:00I don't envy the Australian summer but you kno...I don't envy the Australian summer but you know how British people just love to moan about the weather! xxSarah Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17530253746802487595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793421035373192675.post-44404173075837732402012-03-25T14:51:32.351+01:002012-03-25T14:51:32.351+01:00How can you hate summer when you've got all th...How can you hate summer when you've got all those gorgeous things to wear? There's cider, which always tastes better in the sun, music festivals, car boot sales, sitting in the beer garden on a Sunday afternoon, reading a book in the garden, being able to go outside and cut fresh rocket and basil and tomatoes for lunch, sandals, no coats or tights......have I convinced you yet? xxxVixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05263970600699632661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793421035373192675.post-41684206210090659562012-03-25T13:30:46.957+01:002012-03-25T13:30:46.957+01:00I'm not that keen on summer either, I don'...I'm not that keen on summer either, I don't cope very well with heat and being hot and flustered! that said I am looking forward to wearing my 70s skirts and dresses again but I expect after a month I'll be sick off it and will want to be wearing tights and velvet again and wrapping up in my fur coats.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02941403034210721208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1793421035373192675.post-36461375711853153632012-03-25T13:20:48.066+01:002012-03-25T13:20:48.066+01:00Well, I'm in Australia, so I suspect that your...Well, I'm in Australia, so I suspect that your summer is quite different to mine... I love daylight saving, I love the long days and sunny evenings, sea breezes and beautiful sunsets. I love wearing tshirts and summer frocks and flowy skirts and sandals... but I hate the heat and the sticky, sweaty, humidity. A beautiful, sunny 25 - 30 degree day is perfection to me. <br /><br />Now, that blue floral frock looks AWFUL - I think you should send it to me to help you get rid of it. <br /><br />Sarah xxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16235255775524330362noreply@blogger.com
