Dealing with snow and bitter cold? Let’s all think spring.

by Polly

When I am sick and tired of all the heavy wool pants, tweed jackets and big sweaters, I start dreaming of lightweight fabrics, fun little tops, and the possibility that some day soon my arms will be uncovered outdoors without searing pain. That day is today.

This year, they say green is the “it” color for spring. In shades from light to bright, green is showing up everywhere.

So, I am looking at a few green items a bit more reasonably priced that stand a better chance of making it into my closet this spring.

I would pair these with white jeans, and an offbeat “twinset” consisting of this baby cable cardigan (also from Bean), and a lighter green pima camisole.

So, while I look out my window at snow, slush and gray skies, I can get online and start ordering myself up some spring green clothes!

  1. Bargain Styling » Blog Archive » LEVIS Outlet Spring Tops Says:

    [...] LEVIS Outlet Spring Tops February 8th, 2007 by Dexie I recently went to the Levis Outlet in search of a pair of white jeans but I didn’t find any at the store. Instead I picked up a pair of Low Boot Cut 545 which cost me $24.99. While there I also scoured their Clearance Rack and found 2 tops from Most for $4.99 each. Just like Polly from Shopping Tips Online, I am so sick of this frigid cold weather that’s why when I saw those 2 tops I grabbed them really fast to inspire me for the Spring/Summer weather. As it turns out, green might be the “it” color this spring so I’m glad I picked that green crinkled camisole instead of the tan one. [...]

    I love everything! There is no better time to be green then in the spring. :)

  4. Polly Says:

    I LOVE all shades of green right now! Isn’t it funny how these things come back around? They are saying that even green-gold or an acid green is going to be in. Okay, anything but NEON, right? Ha ha. Thanks for the comments, everyone!
