it still feels like winter

I know that spring doesn't officially start for another couple of weeks, but it's March, shouldn't it be a little warmer outside!? It still feels like winter in Northern Virginia, so I have to dress that way. Layers, sweaters, scarves, boots - all the things that make up an outfit on a chilly day! I'm still struggling just a little bit with having my entire closet open to me. It was easier with the limit - and the planning that I did! That just seals the deal for me, I have got to start planning my outfits!

Even without a plan, I really like the way this outfit came together. I love this top and wish I could have worn it without the sweater because it has buttons down the sleeves! They are totally for decoration, so I know I have at least one friend that would hate it (due to his disdain for useless buttons). But I love it! The colour is one that will tie in well with a lot of pieces that I already have, so that's exciting as well. Too bad they are all springy and summery dresses and skirts! I just need it to get (and stay) a little warmer! What are you looking forward to this spring?
