"A Spring in my Step . . . "
The ever-brilliant work of Joe Nye
Good Morning,
You would think that the use of a calendar would be fairly standardized. Well, for the beginning of Spring - you have to accept some flexibility. When can you start wearing linen? White shoes? When does 'the Spring' of textiles and design begin? When do the bright floral decorative pillows come out? When does the fall bedding get packed away?
Is it the first day of seasonal Spring on March 21st? Does one wait until after Memorial Day? Or is Easter weekend the 'starting gate' for pastel colours?
Well, with Easter weekend upon us, let's examine the following for some Spring inspiration . . . .

Now, let me clearly state that no matter which date you use to greet the beginning of Spring - no white shoes until after Memorial Day. I'm serious. I can see you.
Happy Easter,

ps. And if you want to hear more from me - my interview on The Skirted Roundtable was posted today. Hop over and have a listen!

I think we should change our colors whenever we darn well want to! If I want pale pink in December I can pair it with gold or silver to give it an elegance suitable for winter.
If I want brown in summer I'll make it a broadcloth, not a wool and maybe I'll bring in crocheted lace. And something brighter like coral.
White shoes? Of course, I have a darling pair of sandals in my closet. The next warm day that my toes look good I'm wearing them! There's no sense in a pedicure for me during winter since it's always too cold to show them!
I'm no decorator nor fashion plate, but what feels good works when you're confident about it!
Thanks again for the visit~
