Spring Fashion

I love spring...it's my favourite fashion season. Fall has nice wools and subdued colours, but while the greys suit me some of the browns and rusts do not. I also have to bundle up more than I'd like to. Winter I always feel like I have to layer to the point of looking like I'm wearing a puff suit. Summer is wonderful and I like heat, but it's hard to be fashionable when it's 38*C outside; you pretty much just want to wear a silk or cotton sundress and absolutely nothing else. Spring is a nice happy medium though. It's warmer than fall and you can wear a little more than summer. There are all sorts of cute, light jackets you can pair with things and you can choose a skirt or pants. Also, I like the colours for me a lot better...I really look best in pinks, blues and summer whites!
Summer is by far my favourite season. When it comes to weather, the hotter the better (at least for me). But Spring fashion beats Summer clothing!

Other than loving the weather, I've been pretty busy. My exams are in less than a month....eep!

Spring is here!

Since I'm done being emo, I thought I'd share some springtime cheer. I love it when I can really see my garden start!

Lettuce and spinach


Tomatoes (sprouted), eggplant and bell peppers:


Zucchini (sprouted), various hot peppers:


Apple blossoms coming!


Tulips:


Strawberries


The strawberries were kept inside over the winter with the fruit bushes (which is why the apple blossoms are already coming out as well), but I had a few that stayed outside, that are trying to revive themselves as well.

The Big Thaw

After a freezing winter of snow and ice, it seems like it's finally all melting. It's been above 0 for a few days and there are puddles everywhere. The snowman my friend Adam and I built a month ago on my balcony lost his head. As much as it's a slushy mess outside, this couldn't be more welcome. I realized that, though I like snow for a few days, after 2 months you just want it to melt. I'm so over winter. Bring on spring!

Wayne's World dubbed in German is somehow super entertaining.
