How to: Wear Shorts Now & Later

Most of you are probably like me, in a climate that is not quite warm enough for shorts yet.  You may get the occasional 55-60 degree day and for me that means busting out the shorts with a cute spring colored sweater or light layers.   Besides who wants to pass up all the bright and beautiful colored shorts this time of year in the stores!?  They are everywhere you turn, so I've styled two looks here.  Wear it now; wear it later.

Wear shorts now with a button down or fitted lightweight sweater and blazer or denim jacket.  Keep your footwear simple but closed toe with either a cute neutral flat or oxford.

Wear them later with flip flops or strappy sandals and a cute flowy top! Try a monochrome look with pairing your shorts with a similarly colored top.  Use your accessories as your pops of other color.

Forcing Spring

I have most certainly been in a pre-spring rut.  I'm sure I am not alone in that!  Seems everyone is having a rough winter season.   With that said I wanted to show some ways that you could pull out the spring frocks without freezing your bootie off; and since it's also supposed to warm up here (hooray!!).

I take my favorite spring pieces and start layering them.  I showed you one look in this post where I layered a chambray top under a t-shirt dress with a blazer.

A striped blazer, military, moto or denim jacket are the perfect pieces to layer over the springtime swings before they're really in season!  Add some booties and a cute bag to complete your look!

How to: Wear MINT!

You may remember a few weeks back I wrote about how the color mint is here to stay..?
Well, I'm sure you're all wondering how to wear it since it's a staple color this spring season.  I've rounded up some unconventional color pairs for this pastel lovely.  Take chances with your style, if you're not willing to take a chance with something as temporary as an outfit - I'm not sure what you'll take a chance on! :)
