I wore boots yesterday, boots and a scarf in fact.

Because I’m one of those people who justifies keeping the last season around with things like, “well, it’s cold in the morning so boots are still acceptable!”

They are still acceptable, I’d say until Easter and then maybe it will be time to pry them out of my sad, disappointed grip.

But the good news is, lighter scarves can stick around as long as you pair them with short sleeves. Also, sheer colored tights still work while it’s cold in the mornings.

I’d definitely stray way from winter colors. Even a winter color lover like me has gotten inspired by all the brights that are out and about, so start thinking spring colors. Maybe even get spring colored sweaters for the time being since it’s still a bit chilly out some days.

And let me clarify something, if you are going to keep the boots out, pair them with something sleeves if you’re going to wear them with jeans. Or like I did yesterday, a bright skirt (no panty hose) a white top and a spring scarf. Those kinds of color combinations (and my boots were gray so they’re light too) allow you to keep the “winter look” going with a “spring feel”.

It works. I’m determined to make it work because LORD I love boots and scarves.

Oh fall…you’re only 5 months away ;)
