chartreuse shenanigans.

As a prelude to spring, I’m busting out the brightest hues in my closet all week.  But after Monday’s over the top color combo, I thought I’d turn it down — just a notch.

The last time I wore this neon lace skirt, I was completely decked out for summer.  To make this standout piece work while transitioning  from winter to spring, I balanced the bold color with a cream sweater, leopard heels and simple accessories.

I’m all about mixing spring clothing into my winter wardrobe — and from the looks of it — the guy photobombing in the background agrees completely!

It’s no secret that I have a slight obsession with J.Crew.  And by slight, I mean debilitating.  The bright colors, playful prints, and impeccable styling keep me coming back season after season.  And even though their price point is usually way out of my budget, J.Crew constantly adds new items to their sale section and frequently offers additional discounts.

I often find myself visiting their stores (there’s almost 10 in the city!), browsing their style guides (aka catalogs) and trolling their website on a weekly basis.  Like I said — it’s slight obsession, but when the markdowns start rolling in, I know exactly what I want.  Check out a few of my favorite pieces from the label’s spring collection and let me know which ones you’re lusting after.

Maybe it was my bright pink coat or maybe it was the fact that I was the only girl in NYC walking around town sans tights, but I got a lot of looks strolling through Union Square yesterday.  And even though spring is still three weeks away, I’m already in the spirit of bright, bold colors and there’s no turning back from that — even if means that I stand out in a sea of black down jackets and wool coats.
