Feeling Spring

It's the end of April and is finally starting to feel like spring. I didn't know how much longer I could wait for the warm weather and sunny skies. 

My trailing skirt via shopnastygal (also seen here) is currently hogging up all my wear time. I find myself begging the weather for warmer days so I can wear it more and more. The neutral color leaves so much room for accessories so each time I wear it feels like it's the first time I'm pulling it out of my closet.

Swing Swing

 

The sun finally stayed out long enough to enjoy the outdoors and the weather in my newest maxi dress. My spring clothes have been packed away for so long that it feels good to occasionally pull them out of my closet to wear them.

Playing With The Sun

The sun made a small appearance all month long as if we were playing a game of hide and seek. During the day it continues to play peek a boo, coming and going as it pleases. Currently, I feel like I am not living in Boston but in some gloomy place that I must escape from. I cannot wait for when the sun is here to stay for a while.

Theres Always Space For White

I was horrified to learn that flared jeans were coming back in trend. But, instead of fearing it I decided to embrace it. My trick no matter what your height - wedges. They make everything proportionate and elongated so I went with my minimally flared white jeans. I never believed that there was a certain time to wear white. There is always space for white in my outfit whether its on my tank top in the winter or jeans in the spring. Make room for white it will let the other colors you are wearing shine.

The Perfect Blazer

I'm not one to wear blazers. For my petite 5'1 frame they always seemed like I am a little child wearing a blazer that is two times too big for me. If that wasn't the case it then look liked I was trying too hard to be a business professional (something that I am not - not yet at least). Is was never something that I would grab to throw over a top or dress until I found this one from DVF. The style fit me perfectly and the silk jersey makes it both casual or dressy. Finally a (lonely) blazer for my closet.

Warming My Soul

The sun has the amazing power to warm me completely to my soul. I am such a happier person when the sun is there during the day to warm everything. I guess you could call me solar powered. I took these pictures during my weekend home at my favorite lake spot. I like my weekend attire to be completely casual to help me (and my mind) relax and recharge for the upcoming week.

Black, Blush, and Flowers all over

The key to a perfect outfit is the right tailor. Since I am super petite I have a hard time finding pieces that fit me right so I tailor most things that I own. I actually love when my pieces come back from the tailors because they feel like they are mine and only mine. I just brought this skirt home from the tailors and love the way it fits. I could be in a room surrounded by girls wearing the same dress as me but I would still feel like my skirt is unique and different.

Beach Days {Miami}

My time in Miami was mostly spent on the beach which is why I decided to dedicate a post to my beach outfit rather than my outfits. With the current rain/snow that we are getting in New England I feel like those days in the sun are way behind me. Hopefully the weather will start to get better if not another vacation may be needed!

Tints of Pink

 As I already said in my previous post my vacation left me with plenty of memories and little outfit posts (which I am kicking myself about). But, I was glad to give my boyfriend a break from being behind the camera capturing my latest outfit and we got to enjoy our time together. It was a completely romantic time (he's a crazy romantic and I am far from one) so I was glad to at least give him a break from what I love best, my blog. To make myself feel like I was more of a romantic I wore head to toe pink.These photos were taken before I dyed my hair (which I absolutely love) - can't wait to show you.
