Wanted: Spring Brights.

spring-brights

So, like… everyone on my Instagram + Snapchat won’t stop talking about how Spring is here and all I can think is that it’s going to snow any day and put us all in our place for getting ahead of ourselves. I’m not sold on it really, truly being Spring… just yet at least. Although yesterday morning was pretty great: I didn’t wear a coat to Soul Cycle and it was awesome.

Shopping-wise, it’s a whole different story. Realism out the window. All I want are pretty florals and stripes, strappy sandals, bright baubles, and elements of fun + whimsy. No. more. sweaters. Today I rounded up a few things I have my eye on… and as an added bonus, everything is under $200. I will say that I’m crushing hard on this beaded clutch.. it’s made for vacation.

    Totally agree with you on the realism out the window when it comes to spring shopping. I’m in Toronto so we’re in the same boat! Great picks ❤

    I’m with you – it is NOT spring yet, we’re expecting like 20 more cm of snow over the next week. But in terms of shopping, it’s all summer dresses and espadrilles up in here. I don’t want to buy anything remotely winter-y! Love all of your picks here, especially the dresses and that adorable iphone case!

    My favourites are the pink dress and bright floral phone case! 🙂 I know what you mean about not being sure if Spring is really here, but I’m an optimist so I’m making myself believe it is haha!

    It’s TOTALLY going to get cold again, at least for a bit. Until then, I’m going to relish in wearing bare legs, even if I’m a little chilly.

    Grace, awesome collection! I am absolutely in love with #6 & #17!
    Here, in Montreal, Canada, we also have snow falls going non-stop! The temperature has rose and now it is above zero (or above +32 F), but it’s little help when it is always snowing.
    I do not mind winter, I just wish I could wear all pretty clothes now!
