Finally Feeling Like Spring

 Today, I woke up to the birds chirping and the sun shining through my windows, it is finally starting to feel like spring. This winter has been brutal with all the snow and frigid temperatures. I never thought I would be so excited to see the temperature rise above 40 degrees. It felt like a heat wave. I was determined to make the best out of this beautiful, spring like day so I decided to take my camera outside and explore my surroundings.

I didn’t have a specific outfit planned for this shoot. I am so sick of my worn out winter coat and sweaters so I finally looked through my recent spring purchases and put together an outfit debuting my new pieces.

My Forever 21 long-sleeve top is nothing special, but that’s why I like it because I can wear it with anything. A huge trend for spring is stripes so this shirt follows that trend in a subtle way. Hands down, my Brandy Melville cream sweater is my most worn sweater in my closet. It is so comfortable and provides extra warmth on a spring day. No matter what the season it is distressed denim in my must-haves. The best part about of these Just Black brand jeans is that they feel like leggings. They are so comfy and the distressed look definitely adds something to the outfit. I love my new Lucky Brand leather laced up boots. I found them on the clearance rank at Lord and Taylor’s and scored an amazing deal on them. I have a feeling these boots will be my go-to spring shoes because they feel lighter than a wintertime boot. The deep chestnut color will go great with any pair of jeans, skirts, or dresses. I kept my jewelry pretty simple. For earrings I am just wearing a pair of gold studs. For my necklace I am wearing my new gold elephant pendant necklace from Forever 21. I am obsessed with elephants because not only are they cute, but also they symbolize many virtues, including strength and luck.

It was a perfect day. With the warmish weather and the sun shining on my face, I felt rejuvenated. I am so happy to see the mounds of snow finally melting away. Here’s to a new season and the fashion that comes with it.
