I love wearing modern clothes that have a vintage feel to them. One brand I love to wear that has a vintage feel to it is Review Australia.

Spring has sprung! Well kinda... It's only the start of September and it's still a little chilly outside. But the sun doesn't set till I am home from work now, and the sun is even up when I leave the house bright and early in the morning. So that definitely makes me happy.
