grey day. I can wear grey any and everyday of the week, but it feels appropriate on a day like today. Scattered showers. dark clouds. wind that would seriously blow anyone over. Grey just fits. It makes me feel good and brightens me right up, as it is my favourite color.


Sipped tea. read. cleaned. took the dog for a walk. sipped more tea. watched closing ceremonies... I loved watching the unity that the Olympics brought to our world and am sad it's over. I found it heart warming and humbling to see nations join hands and bond over such athletic greatness. It shows that their is not much that separates us but oceans and land...

cold. It's winter here in Southern Africa, therefore tights are almost an everyday occurance. It gets cold here, but luckily our winters are only 3 months and I missed the first 2. I just returned from a two month internship in NYC and it now seems extra cold. Went out for dinner and I wore my MJ shirt which has Beijing 2008 on it- they start this week and I love how one sporting event can create such a sense of unity + peace, if only for a short while. I read in the paper that the South African athletes were unhappy with their fashion attire...just goes to show how fashion affects everyone, everywhere.
