A trench coat is one of my favorite spring layers. Much like the cardigan I shared in Thursday’s post and the utility jacket from two weeks ago, the trench is the third most popular spring layer in my closet. When I spotted this dusty blue trench coat in cabi’s spring collection, I knew it was a must-have for me.

Stepping into Spring: The Best Shoes Under $125
In Monday’s post, I talked about a new, more trendy spring accessory. But today, I am going back to my roots and sharing a huge collection of arguably my favorite accessory of all time: shoes.

The Top That I Own in Four Colors
Excuse me as IĀ attemptĀ to dress for the weather over here. One day I am wearing sweaters and the next it’s full out spring. However, I won’t complain because I am excited to wear spring pieces, even if it’s only once a week. If I had to pick a spring uniform to wear for casual days and even date nights, this would be it. I have raved about this top on countless occasions (most recently in yesterday’s post!) but I think I have found my favorite color yet. You know you have a problem when you own the same shirt in four different colors, but this pink ruffle top takes the cake when it comes to the best shade.
Weekend in Virginia Wine Country
Last weekend, we headed to central Virginia, Charlottesville to be exact, to spend some time in the heart of Virginia wine country. We have been to “suburbs” of Charlottesville before, but never made it to Charlottesville proper until this trip. Richard and I love to visit wineries in Northern Virginia closer to our home, but we were anxious to try more of central Virginia’s wineries. We packed up the car and headed south for President’s Day weekend to explore a new area of our state, with Ella in tow, for a warm but overcast and rainy weekend in Virginia wine country.
Shades of Spring: Purple

There is always a trendy color of the season. And while there are a few that I am loving for spring, it would be difficult to not start with this year’s Pantone Color of the Year. I talked about my love for the new color of the year in this post and the love is still going strong! From violet to lavender and everything in between, shades of purple are everywhere this spring.

From spring trends like shades of purple, asymmetrical necklines and of course stripes, here is a list of what I’m buying for spring.
