Spring outfit

After this cold weather, aren't you daydreaming about those breezy days of spring? This feminine-yet-tomboyish outfit would be perfect to wear on bike rides, to brunches and on picnics...
Red cotton dress that you could wear everyday.
Mini crossbody bag to carry lipstick and a paperback.
Wedge sandals for extra long legs. (Here's another similar pair; and these, too)
Striped espadrilles for outdoor adventures (or TOMS, of course).
French locket with snapshots of your loved ones.

  5. I actually love the short-white-shorts-and-plaid-top look in the top photo. It reminds me of Audrey Hepburn as Sabrina when she went sailing with Linus (Humphrey Bogart). All you need is those versatile dangly silver hoop earrings to close the deal.

  33. I'm all about the slightly tomboy looks in spring. It's the season for going outside and getting a little dirty, and after a few months (or more) of being all bundled up, it feels good to break out into something more comfortable and freeing!

  34. Haha - I think you have forgotten about your bump! I don't think you will squeeze it into that dress or go on many bike rides... maybe it will be a late summer dress for you!

  41. It's so warm and sunny and Michigan today (well, 43F) that I keep thinking it's almost Spring ... and then I remember that we still have another month and a half (at least) of winter here!
    I love these choices - I've been having a thing for lockets recently. I'm thinking about putting newborn photos of my 2 year old and my upcoming new guy (who'll be born in May) in one.
    Speaking of which ... will you be doing a maternity style post? I hope so!

  42. I love love LOVE that dress! It's so cute and flirty, but looks super comfy and flattering at the same time. My friend and I always love when spring/summer come; we have a shopping tradition called "Summer of the Dresses". It's silly, but it gets us excited for warm weather and new clothes. This dress fits right in!

  43. Love the idea of the dress, but that material makes me feel bulky. Maybe best for someone that is very thin.
