FLORAL FOXES

'Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea cozy, doesn't try it on.'
- Billy Connelly


the earth is starting to warm. little white buds are snapping out of their green shells, their fragrance staining the air-- birds are building twig beds, hot tea is becoming iced... with spring comes an itching desire to wear florals, listen to laura marling and twine my hair with wildflowers...

what will you do this spring, my petals?

  1. oh dear, i agree with every single one of those itching desires; but this perplexes me slightly because in England it is not spring but nearing the end of summer. I suppose Australia is upside-down, though. :P

    I loveee Laura Marling, I so wish I had her CD. I must try to save up for it.

  7. Lovely Char,
    You make me wish it were spring time in England. Here Autumn is beginning to show its pretty head and I cannot wait. I always liked Spring and Autumn better than Summer and Winter. Far more interesting, changing colours and plants, wildlife changes.
    Every time spring comes I feel the same. Itching to wear a pretty dress, cycle the countryside and pick wild flowers. Now however, I am looking forward to stary nights, cold winds, rosey cheeks and dancing leaves.
    The art work is lovely, I especially like the first one.
    Please stay your wonderful self, I hope my letter gets there soon. Tell me when it arrives! xxx
    P.S - I love Laura Marling! Do you like Johnny Flynn or Mumford and Sons? They often all tour together :)
