Don't let grey clouds get you down



A tip for bringing sunshine into a dreary Wednesday morning?


Throw on a smile and the brightest tights you have. Just because the rest of the world is grey and mopey doesn't mean you have to be!




*Incidentally, the sun came out about a half hour later and it has turned into a glorious rainbow filled day

You're welcome Canberra.



What's your Wednesday pick-me-up?

Thanks for the sweet comment! I love the thought of colourful tights but am always to nervous to wear them. Think I might try it out =) x

oh Pick-me-ups are so, so key! :) I love the idea of bright tights, I do need to get me some of those. And I highly recommend you come visit New York - the options for food are truly endless, and there's something for everyone here! ;) [Just wait until Spring or Fall to come, winters and summers can be a bit harsh for vacations!]

Tea, a whole lot of tea. And making the effort to smile at people because, d'you know what? They return it! Such a wonderful thing.

Thankyou for the blog award, by the way! You are such a lovely lady. Been meaning to post a thank-you to you but I have been so frustratingly tied up with essays so I am sorry :( ---definitely going to post my favourite films later though! Hope you're well. I LOVE your shiny outlook. It so often gets me through the day.

I can't exactly wear tights to work (being in a lab) but I totally wore a bright pink (somewhat fluorescent) shirt to work...it made my day somewhat better seeing that it's been a bad day and totally overcast/dreary here allll day!

Glad yours came out on the sunshiney side!!

hooray for colored tights! :) i love reading my favorite blogs {like yours} when i need a pick me up. it's always inspiring to see the creative and positive projects which people are up to in the blogosphere. this week has been super tough, so i haven't been able to keep up with blogs like usual, but today i couldn't think of anything i wanted to do more than take a trip to blogland.

Coloured tights add so much to an outfit, I really should buy some now.

Been oddly lemming ones in mustard yellow for some reason. :)

Guest Post: Vanisha

Hey guys, here is the last guest post and I couldn't have picked someone better (if I do say so myself). I have only known Vanisha's blog for a short time but I'm already hooked. It's funny, honest and there are always beautiful photos to drool over. PLUS she lives in Canberra and does a much better job of summing up my awesome home-town than I do. Enjoy! Hello! I'm Vanisha from Vanisha's In Life...Australia  Kaylia invited me to write a guest post whilst she's on her fabulous holiday! Being asked to write a guest post almost feels like being invited into someone's home. I'm honored. Kaylia said write about "anything" so I thought I'd write about an amazing trip I recently took.  A lot of people find it odd that of all places, we decided to got to Timor Lestse. Let me preface this decision a little. It all started in front of this fire place in the middle of winter in the Kangaroo Valley. Two acquaintances sat. Trying to get war

Guest post from Deidre of Decoybetty

Here is another guest post from a fabulous blogger; this time it's Deidre from Decoybetty. This blog is one of the funniest, most honest, most inspiring blog around (with the occasional dash of delicious recipes to boot). Check out her beautiful blog at www.decoybetty.com and you'll see why she is one of my all-time favourites. Guest post: When Kaylia asked me to write a guest post, I stared at the blank screen and the only things that came to mind is how every post that Kaylia writes, I read along going “Yes! Yes! Yes!”  This girl writes (albeit way more eloquently) what I’m thinking.  But you read her blog, you know how fabulous she is.   She recently wrote about the ‘anonymity’ of travel. I’m addicted to this feeling.  I’m an expat. I was born in America and got my first taste of Australia in the young adult book “Looking for Alibrandi” where a teenager skips school to hang out with a boy which is basically all the things I am not. I’d never skip school and I didn’t r

Guest Post: Brandi of ´Not Your Average Ordinary´

This guest post is quite exciting for me, as Brandi was actually the reason I first started my blog. She was one of my first followers and has been such an inspiration throughout this whole process. On top of that she is the sweetest person ever and such a beautiful woman inside and out. Without further ado, here she is: Ritual I was so flattered when Kaylia asked me to guest post for her. You see, she's one of my favorite sources of inspiration and honesty on the great big blogosphere. I was sipping tea, trying to decide what to write and feeling more unsure of myself than ever. It's been a bit like that lately in my world. When moments like those overwhelm me, I stop what I'm doing and brew a pot of tea. The first cup is reflection, the second poured becomes evaluation, the remaining cups devoted to action. It's one of the best things I do for myself all day, the little ritual. There’s something wonderful about daily rituals – those little times during the
