All Black with a Bright Hue

When looking for inspiration for spring blog posts, I came accross this website PureWow and this article with 31 Outfit Ideas to try in March. I took a few screenshots of outfits I knew I could replicate with pieces from my closet. As you know, I love to shop my closet in new ways and make the most of what I have.

Here is what I came up with: I thought of my bright blue jacket right away with its sheen and cut and of course all black is easy to come by in my closet.

I figured my black joggers paired with my black bodysuit would be a fun silhouette with the jacket. It was actually quite a comfortable outfit. I’ve mentioned my sneakers in an earlier post: I reach for them all of the time!

It started looking like spring here at the end of February. I really wanted to take pictures next to the pink trees by the lake, but someone was fishing and my son and I decided to stick to this side of the pond instead.

The nice thing about spring time is that everything looks prettier: the sky is blue, grass turns green once again and apart from the arrival of pollen, the colorful trees are a welcome sight.

On this particular day in February, I was actually pretty tired and not really in the mood for pictures. My teen however was willing and the temps were perfect. School breaks can be more exhausting than school days. Sometimes I feel like I am trying to make everyone happy and comfortable including my parents and in-laws. Weekend plans got canceled (my hubby and I were going to have an overnight day/night date), but I was able to take advantage of being home to get some things done.

I am super excited though because when this post is published, I will be counting down the days till my trip to Arizona! When I have to cancel smaller plans, I have to remember I have bigger fun plans still to look forward to. And instead of an overnight trip, hubby and I went out on a date the following Monday to a local restaurant we had wanted to go to.

A bientôt!
