little red wants

Oh friends thank you SO much for your thoughtful and helpful advice on yesterday's post!! Even though Raven and I still haven't reached a decision as to whether or not we'll have a first look, conversations are happening, which is awesome. Guys, I am cold. I am cold and all I want to do is be WARM! Today I'm serving you my spring wish list - no bathing suits on here, are you crazy?? I'm looking for 60-75 degree weather, and that's that!

// jeans // mini bag // bracelet // gold shoes // striped top // grey top // blue shoes //

This spring I'm all about classic, comfy, and subdued. I'll only layer in color where absolutely necessary (teeny tiny bag? Yes please.), and I'll stay away from ballet flats and wear the springy equivalent of boots and sneaks. I'll wear knee slits in my jeans so I can avoid wearing shorts, and every outfit will have stripes because they're the best no brainer way to add instant chic.

What are you coveting for spring??

picture of the week

Processed with VSCOcam with c1 preset We made it! We. made. it. Happy Friday to you, my friends! Thank you to everyone who sent love, light, support, and high fives to me for last night's workshop at The Brass Owl. I had such a blast and the night was a wonderful success. It's so nice to connect with fellow Astorians and lovers of fashion, and it was great going over some of this Spring's trends with Nicole, the owner of TBO (I found out last night that her background is in fashion and she was a buyer for huge companies for YEARS - super inspiring). If you haven't visited The Brass Owl, I highly encourage you to do so. And if you're sad you missed out, I've starting pinning a bunch of my spring trend picks on Pinterest, and I'd love for you to follow along!

This weekend I am getting a much needed dye job at Seagull, followed by an art show that my incredibly talented friend is hosting. Sunday we'll be house hunting again. Stuff is happening, friends. What are you up to this weekend? Please, talk to me! And, as always, my favorite links of the week:

I adore this round up of breakfast nook furniture!

I need this app.

Great wedding makeup tips.

Last night at TBO I talked about eliminating fast fashion from our style vocabulary, but this skirt (on sale!) is a great way to buy into a trend without breaking the bank.

Nothing I love more than a Parisian flat lay post.

Have you caught the early spring bloom bug?

Not into flats? That's fine, try some fancy sneakers to transition to Spring. Pair with jeans + tee, casual dresses, or pull an 80's and wear with a legit corporate look.

Perfect spring bracelet.

See you Monday!

xoxo,
