This past weekend, I took a quick trip down to DC where the weather was insanely gorgeous — I’m talking pops of neon, bare legs and open toes kind of gorgeous!  As much as I love taking in all the monuments (especially at night), this time around, my favorite moment involved sitting on the National Mall, with reading material in hand and sans shoes on my feet.  Sometimes seemingly small moments that turn out to be incredibly monumental.

To usher in the gorgeous weather from this Easter weekend, I took a page out my own book and paired a floral print skirt with an equally peppy print.  It finally feels like spring on the East Coast and barring any freak snowstorms (i.e. two weeks ago), it looks like bright colors and bare legs from here on out.  Skirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpSkirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpSkirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpSkirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpWEAR

march 2013 recap.

Skirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photosone / two / three

It’s always fun to look back at a month’s worth of outfits.  It’s like a mini-retrospective on what’s trending in my closet (white top and bold pants are apparently on repeat this month, if you haven’t noticed).  Best of all, it always makes me want to push my sartorial boundaries a little further the following month.  Let me know which March outfit is your favorite and I’ll see you next month!
