Spring Fever

I’ve spent the last few weeks dreaming of this…
1 / 2 / 3
But then actually donning these neutrals and winter solids…
1 / 2 / 3
But since it’s officially March 1st, and in my humble opinion the start of spring, I will compensate by mixing layers with pops of color…
1 / 2 / 3
Can someone please tell me where the time has flown? As I sit here putting together this post, I am floored at where the days, weeks and months have gone thus far in 2013. In less than a week I am jet-setting to home sweet home, Arizona, for a much needed week of relaxation and a break from school and the first-job after graduation hunt. 
Naturally images of colorful outfits and spring-like dresses keep dancing through me head. But of course, Texas’ sporadic weather isn’t cooperating (what’s new?) and this weekend sounds to be a rather chilly first weekend of spring… le bummer. 
In the meantime I have six days to make it through, after which I will make the trip to Phoenix for time with family, necessary afternoons by the pool and some much needed retail therapy. 
Hope the weather is cooperating where you are! And if you have a chance, make your way on over to Fierce & Fashionable where I’m of course discussing must-have spring investment pieces today. Xox

    I need to start wearing more Spring clothes but I feel like I’m still trying to get in some winter pieces I haven’t even worn yet!

    I’m planning on doing a tiny bit of spring shopping this weekend with my Mom, and I have to admit–I can’t wait. Hoping to snag a yellow dress–love the one you pictured!

    Hi Alex! Thank you for your sweet comments! Oh I know how the weather is in Texas, crazy and unpredictable! I’m definitely ready for warm spring too! I love your colorful layers, perfect transition from winter to spring.

    PS. I graduated from UT. Hook ’em!

    I cannot wait for spring either! I feel like I want to throw all my winter clothes out.. so tired of them. This Georgia weather keeps getting colder and all I want is bright colors, flowers, and sunshine. Oh well I will want it to be winter again soon enough!
