Why Can't I Quit You?

Why can't I quit you NASTY GAL Madrid Wool Hat? I wear this hat at least 5-6 times per week and it goes with everything. Obsessed! 

Speaking of obsessions, if you haven't checked out up and coming Australian designers, One Teaspoon and Style Stalker, you really need to. I highly recommend anything from Style Stalker's knit line. Their garments are well constructed and worth every penny. One Teaspoon's denim line is amazing and a steal at $65 a pop for denim shorts. Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi! 

Flash in the Pan

It's hard adjusting to a new way of life, new roads, restaurants, location and climate. I have noticed my taste in food changing as well, I find myself leaning more and more towards warm things like soups and Hot Cocoa and less of the fruity or salad infused options. New routines are also beginning to pop up, such as craving more books to read. At night, when it drops down to the low 40º's all I want to do is crawl under the covers with a good book to read. Which brought to mind the last time I felt this way; when I was a little girl. I remember being taken to the library, back then (and still now) felt like being led to the Holy Grail. I'd spend hours perusing the Children's bookshelves for just the perfect reads. I feel young and alive again now, as I once did then.

I'd like to ask you, what were some of your childhood favorites? And what are you reading now?
