I swear it's still spring.


White pleated blouse: Target (remixed)
Khaki capris: New York & Co.
Khaki swing jacket: New York & Co. (remixed)
Yellow and white infinity scarf: J Crew
Red peep toe wedges: ? gift from my parents (remixed)
Wooden bracelets: gift from my mom (remixed)
Silver hoops: gift from my mom

I think it's hilarious that I'm trying to keep my face all serious while Kiku jumps on my leg. It's like I'm not even paying attention to her.

Except, look how cute we are when I DO pay attention to her.

Aww! Too cute!

Anyway, I felt a bit uncomfortable all day for three main reasons.
1. It's a suit, a casual suit, but a suit nevertheless
2. Pants.
3. Worse than pants, capris.

I feel a little off with the proportions now that I look at the pictures, but I do like the crisp color palette. There's something about white and khaki that looks so fresh. And then it was totally okay to throw on the bright red shoes and the yellow scarf, because, hey, I'm not wearing any color anywhere else.


And this scarf? Can you tell I'm in love? I tried this with a different scarf this morning, but I like this one better with the red shoes.

Anyway, this outfit is not really weather appropriate, but I refuse to give in. In fact, I wrote a little letter to spring. It goes like this:
Dear Spring,
Why do you come and then leave, come and leave, come and leave? You're breakin' my heart. Please come to stay. I love you; I miss you.
Come back.
Love,
Frances


More scarf love....




Oh, and could I just have a moment to gush like a star-struck teenager?
Check out academichic today. They linked to this post and I'm pretty flattered. And flabbergasted.
