Waiting for Warm Weather

This morning while opening all the windows in my home. I thought to myself, I’m so happy it is not 20 degrees outside right now. After this thought passed my mind, I remembered that typically this time of year I am usually trying to rush the season so that I can be comfortable outdoors in shorts and a tee shirt, which is my favorite weather.

Spring Jackets are my favorite.

It’s important to be thankful where we are right now, I mean the weather is not that bad. We can wear lightweight jackets and not freeze or overheat because it is hot outside. I love love love jackets, so this is the time to wear all those cute little spring jackets.

I love a great layer lol – with the weather still on the cooler side. It gives us a few weeks of wearing our layers without a jacket. Hello puffer vest, and flannel!

Don’t forget your rain boots.

Have you ever heard of “April showers bring May flowers?” That means we will get to have those chilly nights indoors because it may be raining. I don’t know about you, but I love a great raining afternoon. It’s a perfect time to snuggle in bed with a good movie. Oh, and I can’t forget it’s rain boot season.

Spring Jackets

One of my favorite things about spring fashion is the jackets. I have always loved jackets, in my opinion, they just complete any outfit. They are also perfect when you have chilly moments throughout the day. Here in the DC area, I think we have finally entered into the spring season. Que, all the cute jackets.

If you are looking for the perfect jacket for spring think about the type of spring weather that will take place in your area. It rains a lot here in the spring, and some days it’s cold, some days hot. So I like to find jackets that can either be layered over a sweater on those cold days or can be worn over a simple shirt. I also like to wear a lightweight faux leather jacket as well. Whatever your style, any jacket would work as long as you’re warm.

Also, think about the color of your jacket. You want your jacket to go with a lot of your outfits. For me, I picked olive, in the warmer months I wear a lot of navy blue. Olive will also look great with white, black, and even yellow, some of my favorite colors to wear in the spring or summer.
