All this knitting, sewing, walking in the woods and working for a not-for-profit has finally put me on the path towards eco-awareness. Better late then never eh? Plus the other stuff in my life.

Time to think about spring already?
So, New Zealand's fashion designers have started unveiling their spring collections already.
Even if I weren't sick, I'd still find it incredibly hard to get interested in spring clothes, when it's still cold enough for Arctic (fake) furs.
I've found it hard to get interested in fashion in about the last 10 years when I realised that actually, I no longer like fashionable clothes (and find myself complaining to people that 'clothes in Cue don't look like they would look good on normal people' etc).
Sigh.
I hope you feel better soon. I hear that the swine flu is quite rampant in Wellies now!
donnasoowho: Cue stuff is for skinny womern I reckon. My interest in fashion is just so I know what to expect when I go shopping for whatever I need to wear. Like, if the only jeans you can get are the skinny ones, then I just wouldn't bother looking.
Nigel : it only works in our favour when the winter stuff is on sale when there's still 4 months of cold weather left, and similarly for summer clothes.

It is freaking cold! I just got back from a short trip to Sydney and I'm freezing.

I have never understood why we were expected to buy the swimwear when snow was still on the ground and heavy coats while we're still in shorts.
mtnw: last time I was in Sydney it was mid-July and 20-something degrees - nice...
