Floral and Stripes

Is anyone else tired of having to layer clothes?
It seems I get dressed in the morning thinking it will be spring like outside only to step out and see that I was fooled...again!
As you can tell it was quite a blustery day the day I wore this. 
 In fact,
 I ended up going back inside to retrieve my jean jacket while taking pictures.
I love to mix prints. 
Stripes with floral always seems like a natural combination to me for whatever reason.
 Even if it didn't feel like spring outside,
 I decided to bring a little spring to my outfit!
As much as I love my boots,
 I think I am ready to break out some cute little sandals!
After a much needed pedicure of course.

Are you trying to incorporate spring into your wardrobe
 even if
 mother nature is dead set against showing us
 some spring love???

I am with you wishing for spring. I was doing laundry over the weekend and said that I hate winter. It's double the laundry with all the extra clothes used for layering.

Your outfit is quite springy and I like the colors! Heather

I'm working on adding a bit more color. It's refreshing after all the black and brown I wear.
You look cute!

I love this combo Brett!! I don't ever complain about layering because too soon we will be in excessive heat and stay there until October...I hope the cold sticks around.

The stripes paired with the floral print of your scarf is gorgeous and I love that bright green color for spring!

That gorgeous bright green certainly looks Spring-like, even if the weather isn't playing so nice! Love stripes and florals, and blue and green too. xxx

Yes I sure am! I was wearing a butterfly dress with mounds of snow all around me, I'm ready for spring! I LOVE this neon sweater and paired with the floral scarf it is feisty and fun! I am sick of boots, ready to show some toe cleavage :)
