Years of watching Gossip Girl has conditioned me to long for a cold and beautiful winter to bask in the Christmasy goodness. I would never trade in Aussie Xmas BBQ's and cocktails, but I'm ecstatic we have something close to joy and fairy lights in these winter months.

Wrap up, Blair Waldorf style, and head down for an unforgettable day or night.
