Hurry up Spring!

Source.
Just as I was thinking about how close Spring it started to rain and lasted all day. I always think Spring is much closer than it actually is, daring to poke one stocking covered toe outside before giving in and wearing my knitted socks. I miss the fresh air that doesn't blast my skin off and I miss the freedom of wearing less than five layers. But there's one sight I look forward to every year and that's a tree with blossom blooming, when I was a child I was convinced I would marry under the "pink fluff".

When you look in my wardrobe you'll actually see more Summer type clothing that I layer up during the colder months, it's nice to have a much broader wardrobe when it's warm. One of my friends actually packs away her Summer clothing until it's warm again, I honestly don't know how she does this but I guess it would easier to accept it being cold if I didn't have to stare at the pretty summer clothes. Weaarrr me Amy, gooo on. YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO FREEZE FOR US!


No clothes I refuse, in fact last time I wore my red beret it got blown down the street and into someone's coffee. Anyway if I can't even wear a hat without the wind blowing it off I don't think my cotton dresses have much chance. The other day I cheated and used double sided tape to stick my skirt to the petticoat but it still flew up. A good tip is to gather as much fabric as you can then pull it to one side of your skirt, it keeps it tight and prevents the wind revealing your stocking tops.

At least when summer comes I can appreciate the clothes more but until then I am going to ignore the evil whispers coming from them, I quite like my nipples and would prefer not to lose them to the cold. Has anyone got any suggestions to give my wardrobe new life?

They make tights for the winter. They're super thick and soft on the inside. You could also try layering long sleeved tops over your summer ones, and wearing a really warm coat. That's what I do so I can wear my clothes all year 'round.

Eee! Just outside my house there is a 'tunnel' of pink blossom trees just like the ones in your picture ^^ can't wait until they bloom!

Ditto the summer wardrobe thing, my winter wardrobe consists of woolly tights and a few coats.

I know this is completely unrelated, but I was reminded by your petticoat story... as I was walking up the high street the other day, my skirts got caught in my handbag somehow and I revealed my see-through petticoats, Halloween panties with haunted houses on, and thick woolly stockings to the whole world. >.<

I just started giggling at the word 'nipples'. Sooo mature.

@ Ultimategoth guide, LOL at least you noticed though it would have being worse if you just carried on and started to wonder why people why giggling.

@ Ashlee, omg you genius I didn't think of layering long sleeve tops with my dresses ;D
