43. Scarves

I didn't realise it until today, but I think I have an obsession with scarves. On my daily visit to net-a-porter I found myself adding scarf after scarf to my wishlist, thinking about all the different colours I didn't own. Then I thought I should count how many I did own... 14. But I do wear them all the time and most of them are winter scarves, so I need lightweight scarves for summer!

I decided to put together a scarf wishlist for Christmas.

1. Jane Car Peach/Blue Shell Scarf @ Sambag
2. Alexander McQueen skull Scarf (which sold out about an hour after I saw it)
3. Gucci Paisley Scarf
4. Alexander McQueen Leopard Skull Scarf
5. Athena Procopiou Scarf

42. Things that should come in bigger sizes

Sometimes I think it's unfair they don't make children's things in adult sizes. These Sambag Baby Paris sandals are so delicious!!! I bet they only look cute on mini feet though...

41. Turquoise beaches, blue skies

I've recently returned home after three weeks amongst the most bluest of blue waters in Mexico and the Caribbean. The crystal clear turquoise beaches made the days feel longer and the colour blue even more blue. Here are just a few of my blue snaps...

I was lucky enough to visit some amazing places and will share my stories and recommendations soon.

40. Brighton dog beach

We like to think that besides sleeping and eating, Ari's favourite thing to do is go to the beach. He turns into this crazy little puppy who runs around in circles, jumps up and down, and really just has a ball! Its so funny and makes me laugh!

One of the best things about Melbourne (particularly Elwood-St Kilda-Brighton) is the dog-friendly parks and beaches. The snaps below are from our most recent trip to the Brighton doggy beach. A fenced-in area for dogs to go crazy and not worry about annoying the people sunbathing and relaxing.
