Spring is officially here! It’s been here in Houston for some time, but at least according to the calendars, it’s official. Ready for some spring style inspiration?

For me, I tend to not flip my closet from winter to spring clothes immediately because I’ve learned my lesson – there’s always the occasional cold front we get (like this last weekend). March is usually an interim month where honestly, my closet is a mess and has both thick sweaters and spring dresses all along the racks.

Dressing in March therefore becomes a bit of a mind game. What do I have from fall & winter that I can mix up with spring & summery pieces? Enter the fatigue green military vest (last seen here) with a spring cotton swing dress and a favorite pair of lace-up wedges (last seen here). Spring style is one of my favorite times to dress.

Add in some fun wedges – again some of my favorite shoes to wear for spring style – and a pop of color with a great handbag and you’re on point for a great spring ensemble.

P.S. – are you ready for Easter? We’re less than a week out and I honestly am not sure what I’m wearing to church and brunch, but in case you need some last minute outfit inspiration checkout this dresses on all budgets round-up from a few weeks ago here!
