spring fever

it happens about this time every year. the weather becomes slightly warm, and the sun begins to peek out, making the daily highs in the 60s. unfortunately, it's still january, and this spring-like weather won't last. nonetheless, i can't help but long for warm spring days full of sunshine spent in skirts, sunglasses and sandals. i find myself pairing florals with stripes and gravitating towards outfits full of color.
and this year, my spring fever is especially bad.

i love all of the nautical trends and corals that are popping up everywhere.

and i have always had a soft spot for stripes.

my feet can't wait to get back into summer sandals.

sigh. i know that these days of indian spring are fleeting, but i am really looking forward to spring this year. maybe mr. groundhog will see his shadow and spring will come sooner rather than later. :)
