I have been torturing myself with what to wear in Bali for the next couple of weeks. I've said it before and I'll say it again I'm just not into Summer. So, you can imagine my Summer wardrobe leaves a lot to be desired. I cultivate my winter wardrobe and enjoy dressing in cooler months so I kind of brush over those few months of the year when it's scorching hot.
I'm a bit of an odd one when I fucking hate summer but grew up on the Gold Coast? I like sun! I tan! I love the beach....
However, it still leaves me with the question of "What the fuck am I going to wear?" I've had a look at Summer collections and I've bought bits and pieces that I like but am not in love with. I've settled for something instead of nothing and you know what? I'll probably wear none of it and stick to a sarong.

Because even though I hate summer and the heat I love reading countless books, drinking double-double's till dawn and Bintang's on Kuta beach at dusk, playing with random dogs, getting my toenails painted daily and eating nasi goreng for breakfast.
I'd bring a couple of basic plain black dresses and find comfort and ease in a uniform of sorts. I find when holidaying that's what tends to happen anyway.
ReplyDeleteWhile you're there, find an amazing Balinese tailor and have heaps of awesome clothes made!! My friend had a gorgeous leather a-line skirt made for me in Bali while she was there this year and it cost me less than $100, completely made to my measurements and specifications.
And thanks for your comments too!!
