March has been sooooo nice so far! I wasn't expecting the "snowiest" month of the year (here in CO, at least) to be close to 70 degrees so early in the month, but I'm not complaining. It gave me the chance to wear plenty of spring-y florals, sandals, one of my dresses and also a miniskirt. Spring is one of my favorite seasons for fashion (as long as the weather cooperates). I love pastels, bright colors, beautiful floral patterns and girly dresses and skirts. Feeling a warm breeze on my bare legs is so nice, and reminds me that summer is just around the corner!

Spring Trending: Citrus-y Brights

It's no secret that bright colors are in--but how do you wear them? Take a page out of the runway books, and wear them head-to-toe (dresses in citrus shades are so cute!) or just try it in a pop, like on a purse, shoe or bangle. However you wear them, lemony yellows and tangerine oranges are definitely making a bold statement this spring!

What's your favorite citrus-y shade?

Spring Trending: A Rainbow of Shorts

Want to spice up your shorts this spring? Look for ones in a rainbow of hues! Whether denim or twill, colored shorts are a big trend this season. You can stick with lighter pastels, such as peach and aqua for a more subtle look, or go bold with orange and royal blue. Whatever shade you choose, you're sure to look hot!

It's a Spring Thing

I want to stand out this spring. I want to make a statement with what I'm wearing. I want to try new things. I want to experiment with colors. I want to live in sandals. I want to feel the cool breeze in my hair. I want to wow people with my accessories.

Photo Inspiration of the Day: Ornamental Techni(color)culture

I've been inspired by some of the blogs I follow and I've decided to start doing a photo inspiration of the day. I'll take a picture of something I encounter during the day and tie it into some outfits I've been looking at.

Today's PIOTD is some brightly-colored ornaments on the small Christmas tree I have in my bedroom. I know Christmas is over, but I like to keep my tree up til a week or so after New Year's because it just brightens up my whole day.

With the end of the year comes the arrival of spring wear. It probably won't be warm enough to wear most of these things for a few months, but it's still nice to shop ahead before all this stuff disappears.

All of this stuff is in stores now so you can look forward to any spring break plans while still enjoying those presents and leftovers!
