i adore this... make your own gatsby monogram.

i love scarves

i'm currently rocking a fluoro pink one most of the time.
i don't know why, but i'm happiest with a swathe of fabric around my neck.
preferably big, light and bright.

i want to ride my bicycle

hooray for my new bike!

(about time).

a bit of an impulse buy last saturday.

now i can ride to work, ride to the markets on the weekend, and explore this wonderful city more.

it's all happily shiny and new at my front door, waiting to go for a spin... if it would stop raining on the first day i get a chance to ride it.

outdoor loving

it feels wonderful to have a hint of warmer weather in the air!

dreaming of summer time and outdoor living again.
