Although every time of the year is special, Spring is my favorite season. You just can't beat that beautiful feeling of everything coming back to life. The rain pours down leaving the earth fresh and clean; the grass gets greener and flowers burst into color. It's as if time has held it's breath all winter long and is finally exhaling, blowing gently over the land and making you glad to be alive!
This look and feeling is also reflected in Spring fashion, year after year. There is a re-birth of trends, colors and ideas - and though we've seen it all before, we still get excited. Everything is new and this Easy Living shoot celebrates that spring-y inspiration beautifully.
A floppy, straw gardening hat and rubber boots give a distinctly casual feel to a simple and sophisticated outfit. The hat keeps the sun off your face and the boots protect your toes from the morning dew. (The latter brings me back to when I was seven years old - we called them "wellies" and they were all the rage. :) And it's amazing what a simple sleeveless dress (in robin's egg blue with lace inserts) and a soft sweater can do to keep you comfy and oh, so stylish. Don't forget to make sure your jewelry reflects the weather - pale colors and natural materials add to the "springable" look.
Despite all the fancy decorations now available, flowers are still one of the best accessories. A spray of pansies, pinned upon the breast, brings a sweetness and old-fashioned romance unlike anything else. A lovely unstructured trench keeps the soft, yet elegant look and the Capri pants bring class and subtle color. And who says you can't wear stilettos in the garden? Go for it! :)
A simple white skirt and soft sweater can take you anywhere, dressed up or down as the occasion requires. This weekend is supposed to be lovely, it looks like some gardening is in order... I think I know what I'm going to wear - how about you? ;)
