The weather is finally starting to warm up a bit. It was nice to experience a 30 degree day after the negative temps we've been experiencing. I thought it was a perfect sunny day to don my floral straw hat and a few springy pastels. I just can't help combining all shades of blue together, and this was no exception. The coat and blouse are my grandmother's, the cardigan is my great-grandmother's and the skirt belonged to the grandmother of a good friend. What a combination!
The lovely sun also afforded me the opportunity for another run today! The temps are supposed to stay in the 30's all week, so I can't wait to get out and enjoy the warmth while it lasts. Thank goodness it's February! This has to be my favorite month. Of course it's my birthday month, so I may be a bit biased :) It just seems as though this month is the gateway to spring, so how could I not love it?
Did any of you watch the Superbowl yesterday? Sean and I decided to watch the extended edition of Lord of the Rings instead. We apparently don't care as much about social events as we do about keeping our geeky reputation. I think we enjoyed our choice much more than we would have watching four hours of football. Shudder.
Anyway, happy Monday you Dears! I hope you have a fabulous start to your week :)
God Bless!

i feel the same way about february (it's also my birthday month)! i watched about 5 minutes of the game last night...mostly for the commercials. you look lovely in this outfit. i love the touch of pink with all the blues!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a great color combination! Great! I love the bright color of the skirt and your jacket looks so good and you look so cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the whole outfit! :)

You look so cute with that hat!
ReplyDeleteLove the choice to watch the movie instead. We went to dance class.
Yay for birthday months.
Haha, I love how warming up is 30 degrees for you Northern folk. ;) Though I guess in comparison to those -40 windchills you were having the other week, it would be quite heavenly. Also, that's fabulous how you decided to watch LOTR instead of football. I decided to study and eat at Jason's Deli instead of football (though it was on TV, haha). Glad I'm not the only one who doesn't take a particular interest in all things football. :)
ReplyDeleteI do believe blue is one of my favorite colors to see you in. You always look so lovely in it! And that hat is so cute.
And ooh, birthday month! <3
I hope that 30 degree air is coming my way soon!
ReplyDeleteYou look so lovely and ladylike! I love your pencil skirt!
We did watch the game - but more for the socializing with my husband's family than anything else!
So much history in this adorable little outfit. That jaunty floral hat is the cutest thing! I think a LOTR marathon sounds way better :)

Blue looks so lovely on you!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love your vintage style so much...you are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree about football. I don't even know who won. Or who played...haha! That's a bit embarrassing. Guess I've got some google-ing to do.
Girl, you look so lovely, words can't even describe! I'm so glad that it is warming up just a tad. The sun just makes everything so much better.
ReplyDeleteHope that you have a fabulous week!

Your grandma and great-grandma passed down the most gorgeous items to you! The colors are lovely and I can't get over this hat. It's just so cute and it looks adorable on you! Also, I just read your last post (it should be noted that I want to steal your jacket) and I can't believe these are Crocs. They're really cute!
ReplyDeleteBahaha, way to keep up the geek reputation. Proud of you two!
ReplyDeleteAlso, that last photo? Too cute. You are like a living doll with your natural beauty and vintage style! I may not have the same style, but I can definitely appreciate yours. :)
Happy Monday to you as well - er, well, Tuesday by the time you read this. Haha
