Snow flakes are falling on my head...

030



031


It would appear that winter has arrived late this year. After what was announced as the warmest winter on record in 100 years we now have snow! It hasn't snowed in years and since it's bang smack in the middle of our school holidays there's a certain novelty to it.


I brought this snood yesterday on my lunch break, I'm so pleased I did now! It's scrummy and warm like butter on toast.


There's something quite charming about snow, it's almost magical the way the world seems to fall silent at mother natures feet.

  14. It is so hot here in Indiana! I almost wish for snow, though I know I will complain about it once it finally comes. I have been searching everywhere for the perfect pair of flat, knee high black boots. Your's are very cute.

  15. Oh! I miss the snow! We had a pretty rough Winter here in Scotland, it snowed a lot and I think everybody complained but I absolutely love the snow! I was born for Winter! Which is fitting considering my birthday is mid-late December! Snoods are genius!
    Oh no! Don't you hate it when your favourite stores don't ship to your area/country! What a nightmare. I suppose it would make everything you buy there a bit of a treat though! If you ever see anything you're desperate for give me a shout! I'll order it and ship it to you! I've heard of a couple of people doing this before - anything to help out a fellow blogger! No problem! ♥

  19. Hello snow! Weather is always funny like that. First you have record warmth then snow or vice versa!

  20. OMG you are back! You probably don't even remember me, but I was very sad when you stopped posting after the quake a few months ago.

    I was going through my Google Reader today (WAY behind) and there you were! I love the new hair, am so excited for you about your new job, and mostly am super happy you are back to posting! YAY!

  25. Julia, I'm so glad to see that you are blogging again. I missed your blog so much. I agree snoods are pretty much awesomness wrapped around your neck.
