And by Australian edition, I mean Any-Country-Where-Christmas-Is-In-Summer Edition.
Because we don't get snow, we don't get to cuddle by the fire and we sure as hell don't get to wear cosy sweaters. No, Sir. Instead, we get temperatures upwards of 35 degrees Celsius, a bad case of heatstroke and a hangover to boot. But! Just because it's hotter than the third level of hell come December, doesn't mean that we can't do cute and festive couple-y things in the lead up to Christmas, right, guys? RIGHT?!
Below is a list of a few of my personal favourite fun (and cheap) Christmas date ideas appropriate for the Summer months:

Will you be doing any of these with your partner this Christmas season? What are your traditions? I'd love to know!
Christmas is hot and sunny weather here, too! I'm from the northern USA, though, so going to the beach for Christmas always feels like a novelty to me. :P I love my summery weather all year!
ReplyDeleteWow, I could not imagine Christmas where it is hot! But I guess if that is all you know it is normal for you! I love going to mall and just people watching during the Holidays!
ReplyDeleteLove these ideas! I live in Florida and we rarely have a cold Christmas. I love the Sandmen at the beach!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in San Diego so Christmas was always on the warm side. Now I am in Washington with "Christmas weather".
ReplyDeleteAhaha the beach at Christmas is probably my favourite thing (other than eating ahaha). Summer is definitely my favourite season, so I sure do love spending the holiday season in the sunshine. :) x
ReplyDeleteAhaha I've never even seen snow before, so a hot Christmas is the norm. :P
ReplyDeletePeople watching is a secret hobby of mine aha. :) x
Yessss! Beach Christmases (is that even a word? Christmases?) are probably my favourite type. :) x
ReplyDeleteOh man. That change. Do you prefer a warm Christmas, or a colder Christmas? x
ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding me that not everywhere in the world is cold for Christmas!! I mean - I knew that but you never stop and realize it! Great list! Thanks for the post!
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with the idea of Christmas date ideas! I might have to try some of these out!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely taking a stroll around the mall with some girlfriends this weekend, the atmosphere is just right.
ReplyDeleteAnd then I love the idea of baking, trying out new recipes and all of that :-)
I am finding that I am actually a white Christmas kinda girl :)
ReplyDeleteWhat great tips! My husband and I LOVE Christmas so I'm definitely pinning this so I can plan a few fun dates for us. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThese are great ideas for a summer-y Christmas! (that sounds weird just typing it for me.)

Aha I often forget, too. :p x
ReplyDeleteYess! I love soaking up the Christmas atmosphere at a busy mall.
ReplyDeleteHappy baking! :) x
Aww I'm glad I could be of some assistance! I hope you have fun. :) x
ReplyDeleteAhaha. A Winter-y Christmas sounds so weird to me, too. I forget that majority of the world's population don't have a Summer Christmas. :P x
