Spring Breeze

nullPhotobucketPhotobucket

Good morning, sweets! Hope you're all having a fabulous start to the day.

Despite my frantic schedule, {I apologize again for being MIA the past few days....it's hard to plan your spouses 40th birthday, I tell ya!}, I'm walking on air today because I'm just giddy over the gorgeous weather we've been having. Yesterday I even broke out my trench coat and ballet flats for the first time all year.

The weather is hitting the 70s, there's a beautiful balmy breeze in the air, and the buds are starting to blossom.

And just this past weekend we sprung our clocks ahead and now it truly feels as if spring is really here.

Are you all starting to feel spring?

Have a lovely day, darlings! Hope to be by to say hi at some point soon!

xoxo

I love spring, can't wait till the blossom trees are in bloom outside my house = happiness!! Winter seemed fast yet slow, all the cold rain we had here was mind numbing. But, I am ready to be in the sun and outside more!! Hope you have a marvelous day doll! xoxo

It doesn't have that "Spring" feel here yet, but the weather was a little nicer yesterday. The weather for my little escape to Maine last week was great.

I hope you "spring" over to my blog for the last day of my giveaway. :)

Sweet lovely photos, as usual, Dawn! I am dying for pink and purple combination in the last one! Nice that you have such a wonderful weather, here is sunny, too, but I have to wait a little bit to wear my flats! Have a wonderful day! :*

Wow! I really love your attitude!! Spring is on its way here in the North of France too! I'm still layering with scarves and such but my spring jacket it out and ballet flats are being sported!

You couldn't have chosen more perfect photos to speak about spring. Beautiful! I haven't worn my trench nor my ballet flats yet. Spring is not quite here yet. Good luck with all the planning! xo

Chicago Chic said...

Such a gorgeous descriptions of springtime, enjoy the amazing weather! I only have a black burb trench but really need to get a more spring-appropriate color like khaki. I tried on a white trench and I fell in love, but I was afraid of it getting dirty! Love these images, and good luck with all of the planning!

I feel like the older I get the more I appreciate spring. I used to hate it because here in WI it's usually very muddy and wet and sometimes we get snow into May! But I have to say there's something amazing about everything slowly turning warm and green!

B. in the Know said...

Oh the city sounds lovely right now - can't wait to experience the spring there soon! It is really starting to warm up here, too - and I am loving it SO much.
Much love,
B

Our spring has been elusive although nothing to complain about--we got spoiled with 3 weeks of a perfect summer weather and now it's back to cool but sunny and slightly overcast at times. Wish it would just be spring already!

It's feeling like Spring here too. The heat is OFF and the windows are open. Love that! Everything seems to be coming back to life and the trees are budding. What's best is that I'm not coming home from work in the dark! : )
As usual, your photos are beautiful!

Happy Wednesday - we are almost to the weekend!
