It’s still transitional time here in Central Texas, boiling one day and cold the next. I am trying to make the most of my transitional pieces and layering when I can. I love tights when there is a bit of cool to the air, and all of last week offered plenty. I feel a bit smurfy every time I wear this color, but it’s still too fun to resist. This week will be very challenging to dress for- I think officially it’s called yoga pants and hoodie weather. (It is for those of us with small children anyway). Are you still in transitional clothes or clearly spring?
a weekend blazer, an outfit in which to eat sherbet
When the weather warms up and it feels a bit like summer I want to eat sherbet in just about every flavor. That may have been why I chose to wear this jacket and shoe combination… it reminds me of the colors of a favorite summer treat. It’s already so warm here I can only wear the jacket early, late, or in the air conditioning. I have more little green jackets now than black ones. What summery treat is most tempting you right now?

No stone unturned, or on finding fun dresses where you can
I was reading a style blog a year or so ago and saw a blogger cite KMart as the place she purchased a dress. We don’t have any KMarts here anymore, so I was intrigued and did a quick search of their online clothing. I spotted this bright dress for summer and thought I would give it a go. It’s fun, easy, and I don’t feel too much like I belong at a theme resturant. If you can’t find vintage for a day, KMart gets my casual day dress thumbs up. Don’t worry Target, I’ll never leave you for KMart. I was only flirting. What new loves have you flirted with lately? And just in case you are wondering, yes, my legs may stay this color all summer. Sunscreen and Irish genes go together, friends.
