It’s March. Spring starts in March. I know it’s not spring yet, but just seeing March on the calendar makes me feel like it should be spring. YES, I see the snow. Shut up.

Even though I keep reminding myself it’s still winter in every possible way, there are certain things that no longer feel appropriate to wear. Like my red plaid scarf. I think it’s just so Christmassy. Red plaid scarves are for WINTER winter, not spring winter. Which is why I took my red plaid scarf for one last ride on February 28. It promptly snowed another 6 inches.

That’s how it goes. But hey, if you’re looking to spring-ify your wardrobe a little bit, you can hit up the current Shopbop sale*. Through March 8, you can get up to 25% off your purchase (including full-price and sale items) with the code BIGEVENT15. Try something pastel or maybe one of the cute (and affordable) skirts by J.O.A. You can wear them with your tights and boots for now. But no red plaid, of course. 😉

There was this thing I used to do where I walked outside and enjoyed nature. It was nice. I was thinking recently about how much I missed that, but I found a good cold-weather option! There’s a conservatory/greenhouse at a park just south of downtown (Garfield Park, for my Indy people), so we went for the first time over the weekend. Technically, it was Valentine’s Day. Cute, right? We bundled up in 10 layers so we could survive the walk from the car to the balmy, tropical paradise.

Anyway, I thought I should explain where these photos were taken. Otherwise you might wonder if I had gone on vacation and not checked the forecast before I packed.

Stay warm, friends and frenemies! And in case you missed it, be sure to enter the Mint Julep Boutique giveaway!
