You know, I hate to go on about the weather. I mean, realistically, there's not much you can do about it. And also, this past winter in particular, it was a bit overdone. But I have to put in one final thought I am afraid. And sad as it might be, it must be pointed out that I am putting in this final thought about winter and it is April 6! It did snow yesterday, after all.
A few days ago I received an order in the mail from LLBean. It was this cute skirt that I got a great deal on. A friend of mine obviously got the greet deal too, as she showed up in the same skirt at work, wearing it in much the same way I intended to. It looked great, but that day after work, knowing I had laundry to put away anyways, I played around in my closet a bit, and found a bunch of fun ways to wear it, one of which I wore the next day.
In the process of poking around in my closet, I also found my sweater dress. Yep, my long lost sweater dress that I had NEVER EVEN WORN in an entire winter. In fact I found a bunch of cute dresses and skirts that had just hung there this entire season. Why? I mean, in part it could be blamed on the winter blahs for sure, but really, I think it was the cold. Most days this winter it was too blustery, and too snowy, and too cold to even consider a skirt, even with tights.
Still, a sweater dress? One of those super cozy outfits? If it was too cold for that, it really must have been a polar vortex! No joke!
So all I can say is bring on the dresses. Bring on the skirts. Bring on the sandals and bring on the shorts. We head to Florida in a week, and yeah, our skin will be pasty white and dry. But it is ready for sun like it never has been before. Winter, I will not miss you at all.
Bring on the SUN!
