My dream wardrobe for Spring


My job requires business professional dress except for late spring and summer. This means that the majority of the year I am dressed like this:





or this:


I'm not complaining (much), but once spring rolls around all I want to wear are sundresses, maxis, and sandals. So I have compiled my dream spring/summer wardrobe.




I love the ease and simplicity of swingy sundresses. There is no decision about what pieces should go with what. You just throw it on with a pair of sandals and you're set.


And maxi dresses are the ultimate comfort for me. When I put this on it won't matter that it's the middle of summer and my legs are still ghostly white. I'm a redhead that doesn't tan, I have embraced my paleness!! (Well, mostly.) Plus, in my mind at least, it gives me the illusion of being taller. But that's probably because you can't see the 4 inch wedge sandals I have on underneath.

And let's not forget shoes! Have I mentioned I love shoes?

Check out these beauties. Comfy wedges, pink, strappy... What more could a girl want in life?


And for the more casual days when I just don't feel like heels of any kind, these are perfection:

Really when I think about it, it's all about balance. I love spring/summer dresses and sandals. But at the first hint of Fall, I am ready for tights, skirts, sweaters, and heels again.

Spring is finally here!!


Spring is here! If you live in the South like me, then you are starting to see the signs of new life all around you. I love the freshness in the air, seeing the beautiful trees and flowers begin to bud out, and just the general "green-ness" of everything.


Once Spring gets here I am ready to change things up a bit. I get the urge to redecorate, craft,  and organize. In other words, Pinterest becomes my best friend! Take a look at some these lovelies:






Can't you just feel the creative juices flowing now? I'm glad the weekend is almost here so I can get started on some of the hundreds of projects I pinned over the winter.
