Spring Fever.

I've got it.
Bad.
I know the calendar says April 
But sometimes, in New England, it snows...in April...as it did last week.

 Luckily, as quickly as it came down, it melted.
Today we have bright blue skies and sunshine.
It's not all that warm, but I'll take it.

Some things I'm looking forward to.
bike rides with hubs. maybe mocha will fit in that cute little basket? {doubtful..she gets bigger every day!}
skirts & sundresses. I'll take that whole outfit actually. Thanks J.Crew.
peonies. my fave. can't wait to walk into Trader Joe's and see them :)

open toed shoes & bright toes. my winter feet are ready to be pampered.
runs. in shorts & tees. after last weekend, I've got the motivation.
opening all the windows in the house & feeling the fresh air.

What are your favorite things about Spring?

Glad you have sunshine again, we've been getting cooler temperatures and a lot of rain, but I know that spring will full show itself soon! :)

I think my favorite part of spring is the fresh smells and being able to buy and wear some new, colorful dresses!

All these images make me ready for spring too....though we haven't gotten much snow down here in Maryland...it has been all about the rain...I'm just hoping that means lots of flowers:)

Girl, I am with you!! Soooo ready for spring and all that comes with it! Especially fresh flowers, bright toe-nail polish, windows down in the car, days spent at the pool, and mojitos :) LOVE all of your favorite things about spring -- that J.Crew outfit is perfection.

A Crimson Kiss said...

Absolutely love this! I'm looking forward to shorter hemlines (although it's always pretty cool in SF, so I'll probably still pair them with tights) and throwing all the windows open-it's my favorite thing!

It is crazy to me that it is not yet spring in some parts of the country when it is already becoming summer here! I got my first pedicure, have been in shorts for weeks and am already beginning to stick to the leather seats in my car b/c of the heat - gross!

Spring is the best - hope it arrives soon!

Best things about Spring are the colours and sun/warm weather. Oh and that J. Crew outfit is fab! :)
