San Francisco was completely cloaked in fog when I got home from work yesterday, so our sunny weekend in Palm Springs seems particularly far away right about now. All the same, it’s nearly April so I can’t help but want to think only about sunshine and warm weather, and I know you East Coasters have got to be feeling the same since things should be getting warm there after all. Think those warm thoughts, lovelies; meanwhile, I’ll pretend that I never left the SoCal desert.

White dresses

Year after year, I find myself justifying the purchase of yet another white dress, but given that I live in them all summer long, I think it’s well-warranted. Moreover, white dresses are one of those classic staples that every woman needs in her closet (see how good I am at justifying purchases?). I got this particular dress last summer, so sadly it’s no longer available, but see below for a few of the white dresses I’m currently coveting.

There are a ton of floaty white dresses available right now – here are few to tickle your shopping fancy.

One of the things I’ve been liking about this season’s colored denim trend is that it brings more color into an ensemble in a natural yet unexpected way. I’ve been trying to think of my mint skinny jeans as I would a regular pair of blue jeans in order to come up with looks I might otherwise shy away from, and thus far I’ve been pretty pleased with the results. It was a little chilly (read: not sweltering) the other morning so I reached for my stack of denim and favorite orange E&J tank and layered on my go-to chambray button-down, but honestly it felt a bit tired. Traded out my bluejeans for greenjeans, and suddenly I resembled one of my favorite frozen confections – success!
