Monthly Musings – 3/28/24

Happy Thursday! It’s the last Thursday of the month so I am linking up with Holly and Patty to answer 10 fun seasonal questions. I love thinking about my answers and seeing everyone else’s answers, too!

In January, we talked about winter self-care.

In February, we are talked about surviving the winter months.

This month we are talking about spring fashion. Oh, I am so ready for my spring clothes! If only the weather would cooperate around here.

1. What is your go to spring outfit?

I think white pants and a colorful top look so good in the spring! I tend to go with layers mostly because it may be warm in the afternoon, but the morning and evening get chilly.

2. Favorite spring fashion pieces?

I wear quarterzips with tank tops a lot in the spring.

I also love colorful shoes, like these green and pink loafers.

3. Do you change up your handbag for spring?

I tend to carry the same style handbag all year. I love the St. Anne tote from Barrington. I do switch to a lighter colored bag in the spring.

4. When do you bring out your open-toed shoes?

After I’ve had a pedicure, of course. Ha! I wear them when the weather is warm for most of the day, usually mid to late April. I ordered a new pair of sandals for spring and summer. They are cute AND comfy!

5. Favorite spring scents?

I love the smell of peonies. Jeff is allergic to them so I burn a peony scented candle. I also love citrus scents in the spring because they smell so clean and fresh.

6. White after Easter? After Memorial Day? Heck, whenever I want?

I wear white whenever I want!

7. Favorite way to add spring to your wardrobe when the weather is not quite cooperating?

Bright colors! I add as many bright colors to my wardrobe as possible. I never shy away from color, but I add even more in the spring and summer.

8. Do you change up your makeup routine for spring?

I don’t. The only thing I change is the frequency that I apply self-tanner to my face and body. In the winter, I use it about once a week on my face and rarely on my body. In the spring, I switch to every 3-4 days on my face and the night before I am going to wear a skirt for my body. These are my favorite for face and body.

9. How do you transition your wardrobe for spring?

Like I said before, I add even more bright colors. I also go through my winter clothes and pull out anything I didn’t wear all winter to consign or donate.

10. Favorite spring accessories/jewelry?

I love my big necklaces and colorful bracelets. I have a few bunny earrings that I wore this week and will keep wearing for a week or so after Easter.

I’m not sure that it is an accessory, but I love spring colors on my nails. I have Bold & Unshaken from Olive & June on my nails right now, but Pink Sands, GH, Rosy Tips, Grateful and Kind, Bocce Ball, and EC are some of my favorites.

I am so ready for spring weather! In case you haven’t seen it before, Lilly does have some good advice for us. Check it out.

It was fun to think about these 10 questions. I hope you have some spring weather heading your way this week! Have a great day full of sunshine and books!
