Spring is my second favorite season and every year I look forward to its arrival and renewal of all things beautiful. After several cold and dreary months, there is nothing better than fresh blooms, greenery & the chance to wear sandals. Spring provides hope of hot Summer days to come and just the thought of being sun-kissed gets me giddy.

With only a few weeks left until the official arrival of Summer, I want to share this pastel-hued look with you. Pastels are usually popular this time of year especially with floral prints while tropical prints tend to be reserved for Summer. This look intersects the two seasons perfectly; combiing the soft colors of Spring with patterns reminiscent of a tropical Summer on the islands. It's the perfect mix for a Caribbean gyal such as myself.

I found these earrings while vintage-shopping and fell in love. They're celluloid and in the shape of a pineapple plant. I adore the ivory color and screw back clip-on closure that reminds me of earrings my grandmother had.

I was actually reluctant to share this photo because my top shifted and revealed my bra strap. I don't always catch every detail when proofing images on my camera so when I pulled up this photo on my laptop I was hesitant but things aren't always perfect and I like this photo so here it is, bra strap and all.

Yesssss! Pockets. That is all.

TROPICAL SPRING
