Spring For A Day

Originally, I was going to go with an all black and gray-only ensemble, but then the sun decided to heat things up so foraged for some spring in my closet.  I've got polka dots on kelly green, a silver skinny belt on a khaki tulip skirt (a fave), a bright pink cotton cardi, some silver accessories and navy flats.  I immediately realized my nude flats from last year didn't make the closet cut during my last "spring" cleaning, so I've already ordered some news ones. But navy makes due today.  I'll have my bit of spring for a day before the sun disappears again.  It's a busier mode (at the office) as well, so I keep my lined and unlined post-its at the ready, don't you?

Little Neon

 

Paddington Bear and I are hanging at the office today.  And I've got a little neon skinny belt to go with my gobs of black.  It pairs well with the crazy half-print dress that I have layered over a longsleeved black tee and black tights, then matched with my black oxfords.  I know there is more sunlight and a bit of warmth and Daylight Saving Time kind of announces spring; I'm just slow to let go of my tights.  They've been a uniform during this winter- especially when I've tried to go a whole epic work year (at the office) sans pants. Yes, pants.  But I'm still wearing my vintage thin wool jacket and scarf, because I'm not sure if I believe it will get as warm as they say.
