Spring Essentials: Things I am currently loving!


North Carolina can be so tricky! She (pronoun I arbitrarily decided on—I like Ole’ Carolina being one of the gals) loves to dupe us with unseasonably (because there are no real seasons in this quaint neck of the woods) odd temperatures and unbearable mood swings that gives us Carolinians whiplash and pneumonia. Love her for it! This Saturday and the perpetually blooming Bradford pear trees left me reeling for sweet springtime. However, today the temperatures are frigid and my soul, too, is cold  as a result.

Almost every piece of clothing I buy I try to determine its utility value: how much wear can I get out of this? Thus, almost all my clothing is worn year-round. BUT wait, I do have a niffy little box of spring ready shorts and tanks that I took a gander inside this weekend and y'all, suddenly I smelt blooms and wished for sand between my toes. I am sucker for spring and fall. I would love an everlasting year of high-sixty-something’s. 

Without further ado, here is my list of spring essentials. Otherwise known as the websites' links I linger over too often, you feel me, right? I hope this is common practice for all girls or this just got awkward.


Jack Roger Georgica Sandal in Cork and Gold
Old Navy Rockstar Jeans in White (sign up for emails and receive alerts--their jeans go on sale regularly and I snagged these for $19).
Splurge Alert and will never be mine, but a girl can dream! Love this Sail to Sable Cheers to Chic Tunic in Yellow. 
Smitten with these Pleated Crepe J.Crew shorts in all colors, but especially the Bright Cerise and Navy
Reece and Blair Collection-The Loring statement earrings. Another splurge alert, but these are beautiful. 
J.Crew Knit Tunic Dress in White. Technically, this is a beach cover-up, but the material is thick enough to double as a flawlessly easy on-the-go dress. This screams summer to me! 
   The perfect jean jacket is a staple for the spring! This Gap 1969 Denim Jacket in Jericho is perfect. My current jacket is very similar from Nordstrom and I get so much wear out of it!
The Saddle Hayden Satchel from Gigi New York is too much goodness in one bag. It is the perfect transition bag and it comes in awesome spring/summer hues like Skye Blue and Tangerine. This is like the wish-wish-and-keep-wishing addition to the list.
Loving the graphic tees this season. These from Old Navy are a steal and perfect for tucking into skirts or shorts. 
Cami Maxi Dress from Gap is perfect and so versatile. So easy to dress up or down and have y'all put on a maxi lately, it is equivalent of PJ's on the comfort level--sign me up! Also, comes in another awesome color, Rose.
Jun & Ivy Scalloped Tank in Neon Pink from Francesca's. Love the scallop detail and bright color will look perfect through summer! 

Hope you enjoy my picks! Does Spring Fever have you dreaming?
