Monthly Musings - March

March 30, 2023

 


I'm joining Holly and Patty for their Monthly Musings.  This months topic is Essential Spring Fashion Pieces.



HERE ARE THE QUESTIONS:


1.  How do you transition your wardrobe?  I usually take out of my drawers:  turtlenecks, heavy sweaters, and sweatshirts.  I also like to put away heavy coats.  I like to add in lighter sweaters, cardigans, light long sleeve shirts, and 3/4 sleeve tops.  I like to hang in my coat closet light jackets and coats.

2.  Favorite spring items?  I love wearing light sweaters and 3/4 sleeve tops.  I like wearing light colored pants and shoes.  

3.  Favorite spring footwear?  I love wearing my light tan Steeve Madden flat sneakers with my jeans and leggings.




4.  Favorite colors you wear in spring?  I love wearing pastel colors.  I also like wearing army green and dark grey colored tops with jeans or leggings.

5.  Favorite spring accessory?  I like wearing light colored sunglasses, and light colored crossbody handbags.

6.  Ways to add spring to your outfit even when the weather doesn't cooperate?  I will add a light colored scarf with a top and cardigan or wear a light colored coat.  

7.  Do you change up your makeup routine in spring?  Yes.  I like wearing light colored eye shadow.  I will use an SPF foundation or CC cream.  I like to use Maybelline Dream Urban Cover Broad Spectrum SPF 50.  I also like to wear light pink and coral lipstick.

8.  Puff sleeve trend...yes or no?  Yes.  I love this look for spring.  It looks nice for tops and dresses.

9.  Do you change up your mani/pedi colors in spring?  I always change my mani/pedi to light colors in the spring.  I love wearing light pink nail polish.

10.  Recommend your favorite spring handbag/tote.  I love using my Lola Mae quilted crossbody handbag from Amazon.  I have the bag shown in the color Blush Light. 



Yay for spring.  I can't wait to change my wardrobe to spring clothes!

Here are the monthly topics and dates.

  2. I love seeing how you transition into warmer weather! I have an army green jacket too. I need to pull it out of the closet! That's a cute handbag. I love the color. I had a similar one in black but the zipper broke. I think I over filled it. I hope you're having a great Thursday!

  5. What fun! I don't dare get spring-y clothes here yet as we still have more snow coming. We will be a few hours south for Easter so I hope we have some nice weather there! Happy end of the month-xo Diana

  6. I have been clearing out my closet and finding some new Spring clothes. Hope this tug of war between Old Man Winter and Spring will be over soon. I see Robins on the lawn so that is a good sign. Have a great rest of the week. Hugs. Kris

  8. Nothing makes me feel better than putting away my winter coats and switching to lighter jackets. But, I'll wear boots right through spring until I can wear sandals!

  10. Julie,
    I pretty much do the same as you do but this year, I will have a buy some new things as most of my clothes are too big for me. I am not going to go overboard though because I do not need a lot of clothes now that I am retired... Just a few basics to build on...Thanks so much for stopping by!!
    Hugs,
    Deb
