Hello friends! Halfway through the week! I can't believe Wednesday is already almost over. This week absolutely flew. We're finally seeing spring temperatures, and I'm so happy about it. This past weekend was beautiful! We got out to enjoy it a little bit, took Winny to the dog park, and met up with a few friends to drink beers on an outdoor patio. I'm so ready for consistent warmth and sunshine, but I won't lie... I'm loving these warm thunderstorms we've been getting. Plus, all of a sudden, overnight (seriously), everything bloomed. We have a small tree in our backyard that whenever that blooms... to me, spring is officially here. It's in bloom! And can we just celebrate the first outfit post of the year with bare legs? YAY!

Happy April! Seriously, as soon as the sun peeked out today, I told Eric, "Let's go to dinner, let's take photos, let's get outside!" We had such a beautiful weekend, but I feel like we've been stuck with some gross, very gray, rainy days lately, and I'm feeling over it. I keep telling myself "April showers bring May flowers" but man, I'm ready more than ever for warm temperatures and sunshine! Spring is here though, April is here, and we're so close! I'm really looking forward to the next several months. Tulip festival, carnivals, long days, outdoor patios, it's sounds like heaven!

Ahh, golden hour. It's seriously my favorite hour of the day. I only wish I was enough of a morning person to enjoy the first golden hour of the day, but at least I always enjoy the last! I also just love that we have sunlight so late now. Sunset is at 8pm! It's been so nice getting out of work to a full three hours left of daylight. Plus the weather is starting to feel like spring, and I think I'm almost ready to fully put away my giant winter parka and winter boots. Who knows though in Michigan... we could have a snowstorm tomorrow! Don't worry, I'm knocking on wood. I really really hope that doesn't happen!

Happy Monday! I was sort of ready to get going in a new week today. Weird, I know. We had such a beautiful spring day on Friday (when I was stuck at work) and then it rained all weekend long, which was kind of a bummer! I really do love rain in spring though... April showers bring May flowers! Can you believe we're approaching April this weekend already? Phew! March was a really good month. I feel accomplished even though I didn't hit all of my goals, and we're just inching closer and closer to continuous warmth and sunshine. Can't complain about that! But let's talk about more important things... like my new favorite dress.

Hello, spring! I'm so thrilled a new season is here. Finally! To be fair, this winter did go by pretty quickly... but I'm definitely glad it's behind us. I especially love transitional seasons (spring/autumn) for personal style. It's fun to get dressed this time of year! I'm excited to be bringing out a few new items I purchased recently (after redefining my personal style more!) like these new clogs, lighter wash jeans, and this breezy floral top with flared sleeves! I've defined my style as "folksy girl-next door". Folksy meaning informal and unpretentious, and in my own terms, gives a nod to boho style. Girl-next-door is where I feel I can be a little feminine and girly, but casual and approachable. I seriously am loving this book, and can't wait to see how my style continues to evolve this season!
