Thread Sence and Sensibility.

It's official. I'm getting nervous for my trip.  I feel like its so soon, and I have so much to do before I leave!  I am also a planner, and this is very unlike me to just go without a plan. I am taming the nerves with cozy wardrobes and pretty gift wrapping ideas, and its helping slightly.  I am in love with the Thread Sence winter collection, and I want everything.  These are my favorites though (above). I am also downloading all of my CDs onto my iPod to get my music ready today.  I think music is one of the most important parts of a trip because every time I listen to my songs, it takes me back to wherever I was when I was listening to it.  There are two albums that I never tire of, no matter how many times I listen to them. Ace of Base: The Sign and Lady Gaga: The Fame. I'm sure my friends are so sick of these because I have them on repeat in my car all the time. Smell is another one of those senses that can instantly take me back to a time in my life.  I am planning on getting a new perfume so that whenever I put it on it will remind me of Australia.

  3. I think the idea of getting a new perfume to remind you of Australia is a great idea! When I lived in the UK I wore Escada Rockin' Rio and I will forever associate that scent with London <3
    So excited for you! Love Thread Scence I had never heard of them

  6. In reply to your comment on my post: You will LOVE Sydney - great shopping there!

    I live in Cairns, which is in North Queensland on the coast but I'm moving down to Brisbane in January..Are you coming up to Queensland? Its the best state in Australia! Much more laidback than the other states, better weather and great beaches too :)
