Spring Look 4 - Wine with girlfriends at the Grove

The Grove in Austin is one of my favorite newly discovered places. Wine on the patio is so relaxing (and the grove isn't uptight for a wine bar at all). I'm a sucker for a wide-leg pant and the colorful scarf offsets the neutrality beautifully. Go jewelry-free but add a wedge and a gorgeous handbag -- I love this casual but "still-special" look! But where are the skirts and dresses for spring? I'll have to go back a-digging.

Old Navy tank, Anthro pants and scarf, Kooba handbag and I forget the shoes (sorry!)

Spring Look 3...Getaway

I'm thinking top down of some kind of vintage beaut with a floppy straw hat for drama, headed to the coast without a care in the world.

Bring it, Spring!

When I lived in Boston, fall was my favorite season...breaking out the tall boots, the brown and burnt orange sweaters (where burnt orange is just a color, not a statement), the cable knit tights. Here in Texas, there's only about a two-week period during which you can wear these things - so now I choose spring! And spring has definitely sprung in Austin - days in the low 80's and sunny have me feeling shopping spring fever! So, upcoming, some of my favorite looks that I hope to incorporate into my spring wardrobe (somewhat limited by the good images i could find - i couldn't stand for the images not to "match").
