    I have been on the hunt for a pair of shoes that are office-appropriate but also cool enough for every day wear, which is why I had to buy a pair of Madewell’s Hanne Heels when I saw they were on sale a few weeks back. Although these blocked heels make me appear much taller than I am, they are comfortable enough to wear all day. I also like that the pointed toe of these blocked heels adds a feminine touch to the tomboy style I’ve been rocking lately.

    This striped top is also another item I know will be a wardrobe staple for me this upcoming Spring season. This piece may not appear to be very versatile at first glance, but it can easily be styled in a variety of ways. It can be worn with black pants/jeans or a pencil skirt for a more formal vibe. You can also wear it with a flared skirt or shorts if you’re going for a more casual look.

    Speaking of Spring, I’m really looking forward for warmer weather and brighter days so that I can switch up my wardrobe every once in a while. Maybe it’s that I haven’t yet learned to dress for Portland weather, but I feel like haven’t been able to get out of either my parka or rain jacket this winter season. I’m hoping that a change in the weather will eventually lead to more sartorial experimentation for me.

    xoxo,

    Spring is my favorite season and I am so glad that it is just around the corner. Whenever Spring comes around, I just get this feeling that great things are going to happen–nature is blooming, the weather is simply perfect, and it seems like love is in the air. One of the things that I really love about Spring is the colors associated with it. I love pastel colors, especially pastel pink, which happens to be my favorite color. There is just something about it that makes me feel happy and pretty whenever I wear it. (I’ve been following Erin at the Take Comfort Project, and she talks about how the color pink just seems to pop up everywhere once Spring comes around in a recent post.)
