Spring Fling

Spring is finally here. Although honestly it never seemed like we had much of a winter here in the south, I am
still so excited about this time of year. Everything is blooming (sorry to those of you with allergies!) and the
outside dining patios in Birmingham are starting to fill up again.

Since the beginning of this season always seems to mark a change, I decided to embrace the first day of Spring in
all its glory. I ventured outside of my usual wardrobe of boho/hippie/hipster-ish type of outfits and opted for
something with some real color and structure. I seemed to be doing this a lot lately, so maybe Spring was in the air
long before this past Tuesday!

Here's the cheapskate outfit breakdown:

1. Color block top, TJ Maxx ($12.99)
2. Pencil skirt, Ann Taylor Loft ($25.99)
3. Heels, discount shoe store ($8.99)
4. Clutch, gifted (thanks mom!)
5. Necklace, ATL market ($8.00)
6. Cocktail ring, Charming Charlie (??)
7. Thumb ring, Charlotte Russe ($2.99, part of stackable set)
8. Sunglasses, Venice Beach ($7.00)
