What’s in My Closet: Floral Kimono Blouse

2015-04-12 00.28.21Spring is here and it’s in full swing! With all the stores having spring clothing options out for a while now, I grabbed this top from Anthropologie for only $29.95 (originally $118!) and I couldn’t be happier with it!

2015-04-12 00.28.24It’s easy to pair this top with dressier pants for a night out, or with a light-wash denim for an easy spring day. It even pairs well with a pencil skirt for a simple work wear option.

Spring Fashion on a Day That Feels Like Winter

Sometimes the weather just doesn’t match the season.  And when that happens, it’s hard to figure out what to wear, because you want to wear all those new seasonal clothes, but the temperature outside just doesn’t allow for it.

I like pairing my warmer and brighter pieces to match the spring season, while still staying warm when it feels a bit nippy outside.2015-03-20 05.37.11

Wearing my bright scarf, keeps me warm in the less than desirable temperature, but still adds spring color.2015-03-20 05.38.46

What’s in my Closet (for the 1st Day of Spring!)

whitedenim3Happy First Day of Spring!  Well, technically spring starts at 6:45pm, but still, it’s the first day of spring, so I’m going to treat it that way (regardless of what the weather is like outside)!whitedenim1I’ve already been wearing my white denim this year, but I thought it was appropriate to wear them today to celebrate our saying goodbye to winter!  I paired them with a classic denim jacket, and my spring sweater with a floral accent at the top.2015-03-20 11.20.24White denim and my denim jacket are definitely staple items in my closet.  I think everyone should have each of these because they are so versatile!whitedenim4

While I wish it wasn’t still sweater weather, spring does sometimes require them, so wearing a lighter sweater is a great way to transition from those bulky winter sweaters to lighter weight spring options.
