Spring

Happy Spring! I know it has been awhile, but I was busy hibernating until Winter was far, far away. It is officially Spring and that makes everything better.  I LOVE Spring and its clothes. Here are few thoughts I have been collecting. 

Here is Reese Witherspoon rocking a perfect Spring outfit. This is just perfectly put together, but without looking like you tried so hard. Floral pumps, jeans, navy sweater and adorable yellow bag. Navy, Yellow, White or Navy, Kelly Green and White are some of my favorite color combinations for this time of year.


Here was my take on a Spring outfit. Versatile outfit for work, day or night. Royal and Coral are my 2 main pops of color, and the necklace pulls them together by featuring similar colors and tones - it does not 'match'. Necklace from Stella & Dot. The jacket I'm wearing is my new favorite - you can find it here.


The most important Spring fashion event at my house was Easter. Here is the fam all dolled up. I was so excited for the final season of Mad Med to begin, I went retro with the dress and hair. My dress from leopard boutique.  The boys shirts are from Lands End and the bow ties are from here Sydneybelle Boutique  - you can't tell from the pic, but Jack's is Star Wars! And my poor daughter - her dress is beautiful. It is from Monsoon - a wonderful brand I stumbled upon that actually makes age appropriate clothes for girls! I could have a whole separate blog about that topic. 

What else....I am so overwhelmed by the amount of crazy prints out there. I walked into two stores today and I felt like all I saw was this...
Jury is still out for me on the return of Palazzo pants. Like the Maxi Dress - a trend I want to love but it is just not for my body type.  Do not feel pressured to follow a trend if it doesn't feel authentic to you or doesn't flatter your shape.

These are some of my favorite, new shoes. I seem to get compliments on them frequently and the best part is they REALLY are comfortable. The leather is so soft and the heel is great. You can find them here.  At the time I'm posting this they are on sale. 

I know we have been basking in the spring for officially for a little over 6 weeks, but it will feel like summer soon - on to shorts and swim suites - yikes!
