Spring Layers

Hello and thanks for stopping by my blog today-

 I hope everyone had a lovely Easter holiday weekend!

 It won't by long before most of us will be wearing our pretty, sleeveless dresses 

I have unpacked my spring and summer clothes

and am impatient to start wearing them

But for now, during these changeable spring months, 

 adding a layer can get a little more wear from our light and breezy summer pieces 

These two dresses layer pretty easily, so a cardigan is a good choice

My first outfit is a flutter sleeve dress in a muted aqua floral print

topped with an aqua baby cable cardigan sweater  

This sweater is soft and lightweight, with 3/4 sleeves

and is a perfect pastel for spring

Today I am wearing the waist tie sash that came with the dress

as a neck scarf in a big bow around my neck 

For jewelry I chose a gold tone asymmetrical bracelet

and open circle earrings 

This little bronze metallic bag is caught just right

 in the sunlight from the window, and is positively glowing

All season taupe suede cross strap heels

to finish the look 

Another outfit with a sleeveless summer dress

  This one in a royal, black and white abstract print. I seldom wear it,

as the bold black accents don't seem right when I reach for it in summer

 I thought I would try it for spring with a cardi layer on top

The cardigan is an open front cropped style

that has the look of a collarless jacket  

Carrying my bright blue channel quilted and star studded clutch

Just a few pieces of silver tone jewelry for this busy print

Double Dolphin hinged bracelet and black square drop earrings

First sandals of the season!

Block heel slide sandals like these are a big trend this spring

 I'm  seeing a lot of cute styles online, with both wide and narrow straps

I love this style and took a chance ordering these online

 Fit for me can be tricky in this style of shoe, as my feet are narrow 

and the straps are usually too wide for me

These are a little loose and floppy-

 I am going to have to venture into a brick and mortar shop to get a good fit

Here's an outfit from spring 2018

with a cardigan  buttoned up and tucked into a skirt 

Purple is back this season and I still have this sweater,

I will have to get this one out for a re-style

It's a beautiful time of the year

with the tulips 🌷 in bloom!

Hope everyone has a good week!
